My previous post from two weeks ago got anchored, so I'm reposting:
I just have this to say this about our longest winning streak vs UT in decades:
FEAR THE THUMB

In case you're wondering, we're the darker purple and y'all are the pink.

Ok I got one... your coach is so bad he makes Dooley look like Nick Saban.
Awww frick... I feel bad for even saying that. No one deserves another Dooley not even West End.

You coaches is so Butch he makes k d lang seem girly.
Oh yeah, I went there. If someone would be kind enough to explain to me where exactly "there" is in this case, I'd appreciate it.

"There" is probably the truth. Poor K.D. is just unfortunate looking in terms of femininity but I give her a bit of a pass - genetics are a bitch sometimes and we can't all be blessed. Poor girl couldn't be feminine if she tried.
Dammit I'm too serious.... Your coach is so dumb he thinks a carousel is what you put QBs on.

I...see.
You, sir, have gone too far. My entire family is carnies, and we don't take well to this sort of blatant abuse of our noble circlin' machines. We were having fun and you just had to take it a step beyond the bounds of acceptable good taste.
Also, I still have no idea who's starting at QB for Vandy, and I watched the whole game yesterday.

I can't help that I'm evil. It just slips out sometimes. I truly didn't mean to offend a carnie family tho - carnies are great people so long as they're not working prize based games. Then they just fleece the rubes.
In all seriousness, I thought McCrary finally got the job?

It's going to be a home game for the Vols. I bet the crowd ration will be 75-25 in the VOLS favor.

No, no, we're in the burlesque tent business. True, we fleece the the rubes, but only because we're all ugly, not because we don't give them what the sign promises.
We played three different QBs yesterday. McCrary is getting the bulk, but Robinette has played substantial time as well over the last couple of games despite McCrary being the sole passer for at least the Mizzou game (respectable 24-14 outing for the team) and the ODU game (a rare win over a powerhouse mid-tier team.)
So I have no idea what Coach Mason is thinking. Maybe he's given up on the season and is now just using the games as a testing ground?

That's legit bizness and mildly intriguing. Sue me for being a freak.

Damn. I had no idea he was back to his old ways. Regarding Patton - wtf is going on? Kid may not have the best arm but he's a baller and the team responds to him, imo. Screw having a great arm under those circumstances. Hell, Tee Martin wasn't the best arm but he got it done - Patton's not Tee but you get the point.
Admittedly I pull for all our TN kids but in this case Patton has played well every time I've seen him - just gets it done. May not always be pretty but gets it done.
McCrary does look to have a bright future but Mason should've rolled with Patton this year, imo. I've gotten the distinct feeling that your coaches are just too in love with big arms to see the forest for the tress. And this carousel can't be good for any QB - don't care what they say. That kind of thing hurts confidence.

Been a long year waiting on this one. To be quite honest, I'm hoping Butch puts the smack down after what's transpired the last 2 years

That's a better analysis than I've come up with. Creepy stalker.
Yeah, Coach Mason seems to have a love for power. Not surprising, considering his previous job. There have been some quiet -- very quiet -- suggestions that he's ushering out "Franklin's people." Hopefully that's not true, because, as you say, Robinette has some significant flaws, but he really did come through for us before. He's grown on me.

Feel free to use it.
In truth, I'm a Patton fan because he's from here and everything I've heard indicates he's good people. However, I DESPISED him and his little jump pass last year -- EVIL frickING BASTARD.
As far as ushering out Franklin's people... I've heard y'all have had a lot of transfers lately but haven't really kept up with the drama. I get that you want players to buy in when you're a new coach but I can't see Patton being a troublemaker and your roster is thin enough without weeding out players. Patton just seems like a really great kid and his family has a good reputation round these parts.
Nothing personal, randomways, but I'm hoping for revenge this year.
