Yeah, my point is that he should have had the bullet in his brain when he DID it...not six years later.

The case with this kid getting into UT has been ongoing for years. Fulmer actually was talking with him at one point.

Hood is going to get an academic scholly and given a shot to walk on. This is more to do with UT's laws than Kiffin (who does not have a choice in the matter, at this point)

No, the UT fans who are aware of this kids previous actions wish he was not going to be on the team, I would say the majority are not aware of him currently and when they find out, it may get out of hand.
How exactly does he not have a choice? That makes no sense. You can't require someone to be on a football team legally. That's ridiculous.

I bet more than a at volnation will be fine with it.

God, I hope you're wrong on that. If you aren't wrong, then Tennessee is in far worse shape than I thought.

Hood has worked out a deal to attend the university (people are still wondering how that happened). Anyone can walk on, it's up to Kiffin at that point to tell him to piss off.

BTW I am completely against this. I for one do not think this guy served punishment for his crimes. He got away with being labeled a sex offender which would have denied him the ability to go to UT.

im not saying the number will be huge but i bet at least a few will be ok with him. They seem a bit throwed off on volnation anyways and someone that seemed to be a reasonable poster he is defending the kid. so you never know.

fwiw if this was on the rant and about him trying to get into LSU id guess a few would be ok. You will always have some bad apples in big fanbases

So far that part of the story is BS. I haven't seen anywhere the cousin "forgiving" him.

They are aware of it at VolNation, and it doesn't look good for the guys in Orange.

here's a sampling:

slovog: Good news. Welcome abord, this guy is good.

toyotaboy: Congrats to the young man, he deserves redemption. I hope he makes the absolute most of this opportunity.

orangeblood: All you need to know is that we have another high 3 star Oline guy coming in the fall.

generaljack: I'm a little surprised. This is one situation where no publicity would be good publicity.

mdbjcc: Much needed depth on the Oline. I hope he rapes the Opposing Dline

Yeah, thats just page one...

Why would they be bad apples for having a different point of view?
