Fall camp injuries suck.

Edress Farooq injured his knee and is out for the season. Started all 13 games last year for the Vols and was second in SEC in forced fumbles.

We lost probably our best RB yesterday, AK Dear. We are loaded with 5* at RB… but they’re all young. We’ll see how much it affects us, as we have to run the ball this year.

It was real bad. They carried him to UT Medical Center in an ambulance.

They only do that when it's a terrible injury past anything the team doctors can handle immediately.

Fall camp is simultaneously like an extended Christmas Eve and running though a minefield

It sucks, but this happens every year before the games even start. Hopefully he recovers fully.

The losses we suffered at running back during the ‘24 fall camp affected us for two seasons. Small thing compared to the sadness knowing that CJ Baxter will never be what he was.

Damn. Hope the kid can make a full recovery. Looked like a pretty bad injury

Tennessee's weak point always seems to be the secondary.

Then, without fail, we always lose a starter to injury right before the season starts.

Crap! You SEC guys and your continued misuse of UT. Had me worried for a moment.

Edit, I should have known better as aggy would use tu if it was Texas. This one's for you Hugh McElroy....

You are TU or TX

UT was a college when Texas was Mexico. Matter of fact, if not for Tenneseans Texas would still be Mexico.

If you're going to mimic aggy, and seems appropriate that you do, get it correct, it's "tu", hillbilly.

I was being nice.

DildoU is closer to the truth.

Your student body literally licks dildos on the campus square to protest guns.

Your comment sux. Guess you never experienced a season ending injury. It is devastating for a young player.

My comment has nothing to do with the player you sanctimonious nitwit.

Edit, and piss off, dick weed.
