You people never listen. I never said I "believe" in Kiffin, I said I was excited by his energy. Big difference there.


So youre excited he brings energy that you dont believe in?

For frick's sake, did you graduate high school?

Believe: verb, "to have a firm conviction as to the goodness, efficacy, or ability of something"

Excited: transitive verb, Inflected Form(s): excited "to rouse to an emotional response"


Is that clear enough for you to see the difference?? I know you're from SC but shite man.

Thanks for posting. This is not the best environment to do so in. I hadn't realized the VOLS had gotten so desperate/disaffected. Not a knock, just the best words I could come up with.

I hope Lane either figures out how to act like an adult or moves on quickly. I don't care which.

This is why I believe he won't succeed. He's still a kid himself. He hasn't got the maturity to handle things on a large stage yet. With antics like this, I don't see how he will be able to keep the respect of players, they will see him on a more level playing field in terms of a relationship, than as of a coach I think. Just an opinion.

Sorry that the pronunciations did not translate onto Tiger Droppings board....

Not that Dribble would be able to read it anyway.

It's all good "MyBloodRuns..."

No one is beating up on you. I can't say that I understand, but it's good to have you guys excited and posting on message boards.

I think that many just don't care for the way you are getting your excitement. It shouldn't come at the expense of taking shots at others. If you're school, program, or coach is "all that" (and as an institution, Tennessee is), then you don't need to do that.

Letting it be known that this years class and players aren't up to standards(thus alienating potential high school coaches),
Telling a kid to keep announcing he is commited to a place he isn't,
Falsely accusing other coaches of cheating,
Pretending to be a recruit on a recruits phone to another school's coach and bragging about it,
Bragging to a veteran coach about knowing the rules when first hired and then getting reprimanded by the SEC office for not knowing the rules,
Getting blasted nationally for this,
does not bode for a bright future for Mr. Lane Kiffin.


Are you serious...

Here's an honest assessment...

I don't think you're going to be able to go to any SEC board right now (other than a UT board) and get any kind of warm and fuzzy confirmation on your feelings.

Kiffin just walked into the most respected conference in America and acted like a horny teenager with the keys to daddy's Mustang GT. He burned the tires leaving the driveway, threw a beer bottle at the neighbor's mailbox, and almost hit the other neighbor's dog.

Now he is sitting at the stoplight revving the engine and flipping birds at a guy in a Ferrarri while playing the radio too loud.

Yeah, the Richardson kid from FL was at the UT Bball game last weekend. His coach text him, "How's the trip?" Kiffin gets the phone and text back something like, "I am committed to UT."

Pretty damn unbelievable, if you ask me..

that's sad when your program is so low that you'll accept being on the map for the wrong reasons as long as you're just on the map.

Agreed. I can't image how embarrassed I would be to be a vol right now....

Do you honestly expect anyone to give you any credit when you try to defend the last 48 hours out of your camp?


I am actually pretty levelheaded and docile* (comparatively speaking) on this board, but your camp is really making it too easy for everyone to laugh at you.

















*I won't even call you or your coach a count on this post.

I will just say that there is right way and a wrong way to go about things. When you throw high school coaches and Grandmothers under the bus for no reason you are heading for trouble. When make al davis look like a smart man well you figue it out. JMO

Hell, Hitler put Germany back on the map after the treaty of Versailles but you rarely hear any Germans thanking him for it.
