It is never something to celebrate when someone dies. I hope he rests well, just as I hope Logan Young rests well.

RIP to one of the greatest bagmen in SEC history. Tennstud showed up to testify at the Logan Young trial wearing a big orange blazer and a Davy Crockett coonskin hat

A tribute to Roy Adams: LINK

RIP, he loved UT football...
For the folks that do not know, he was part of the Memphis recruiting wars between UT and Bama.
As he followed the football season, the names of two aging, fanatical Memphis boosters kept coming up. One was Alabama super-fan Young, a wealthy businessman with an erratic reputation and ties to the late legendary Alabama coach Bear Bryant. The other was Roy Adams, an equally avid Tennessee booster and a garrulous sort who had become infatuated with fan forums on the Internet. Once they had been friends and drinking buddies, but years ago they fell out and were now sworn enemies.

In 2000, Adams became well known in Tennessee circles as a commentator who helped spark the federal investigation and conviction of Logan Young, an Alabama booster in Memphis who paid a coach $150,000 to steer defensive lineman Albert Means to Tuscaloosa.In a wrongful termination civil suit later brought by two Alabama coaches that stemmed from the Young case, Adams was deposed. He wore a white coonskin cap and an orange blazer and brought along a bottle of Tennessee sipping whiskey to the proceedings. Adams relishes the memory. “I couldn’t think of anything that would upset an Alabama lawyer more,” he said.

The Tennessee Stud was orange and mean, the color of the sun and his bags were green...

Anybody with the balls to roll into court dressed like that is full of awesomeness. I don't give a damn who you pull for, I like you!
