“Steve, what about Ole Miss? They got some horses down there.”

“They played like a bunch of mules last year.”

-

They had beat the Rebels 31-0 the previous year and were undefeated going into that game. Ole Miss proceeded to spank that arse.

We were 15-2-1 in the old conference the three years he was on the field.

My dad has told me stories about him and said if he’d had a better NFL career he would have had his number retired in Knoxville. He was that good at the time.
That Knoxville regional with... wait for it...

East Tennessee State.
I knew before clicking the link who wrote that. Plaschke is brutal. Miss him on the OG days of Around The Horn on ESPN with Woody Paige, Bob Ryan and Jay Mariotti

Only professional athlete to win a Super Bowl and be a member of the Four Horsemen. Teammates with Walter Payton and Ric Flair. Legend.

F—k ALS. Glad he lived to make it into the Hall of Fame.
Merk has a good deep ball. I’d be fine with him as starter, and he could win the battle straight up.

GMac assessment spot on, needs to add some weight and adjust to the game.
We will roll with those three and see who comes out of fall camp when the smoke clears.

I selfishly hope Aguilar balls out and Nico struggles. I know most of this board hates us - largely thanks to the alters - but Joey having a fantastic season and Nico shitting the bed would be good for college football and a valuable portal lesson.
I said in the thread earlier this week that we were looking at 7-5, 8-4 at best. I’m not changing that opinion.

I hope he puts up crazy numbers and gets us a bowl win, and maybe gives himself a chance to get a look at the pros, while Nico shits the bed out in LA.

He honestly has an opportunity to do the funniest thing here. Would make for a great 30 for 30 down the road.
Agree. Vols will be 7-5 and probably in the Liberty Bowl.

It’s going to be a long season. I would have had 9-3 as our ceiling before Nico’s theatrics.
I hope the others call his bluff and he doesn’t even sniff a million. Hope they lose money out of all of this.
It’s making the rounds in Knoxville. A good source in the know on our local sports radio who has been right about A LOT dropped it. Said he notified Heup. And the Vols’ folks leaked this whole thing because negotiations were going nowhere.
Agreed. I’d much rather drive up to Johnson City and get Cade McNamara from ETSU for a serviceable year then pay this guy $4M.

That Arkansas game alone last year proved he ain’t worth it.

Also, kudos to Dan Lanning for telling Heupel and the Tennessee staff that Nico’s peddlers were shopping him around.

Another bomb on Rocky Top. 4-0. Beautiful night out here.
If that evil dementia/alzheimers hadn't gotten to our beloved Pat — it was evident that something was up her last couple of years — you damn well bet the Lady Vols would have had more titles and been a force.

Unfortunately, it's been a damn slide. I do like Caldwell. She has some fire to her. If she can get some players like Pat did, look out.

Pat Summitt leaving the game opened doors for everyone else in the SEC. Which is good. But, for us, sadly, these current high school girls haven't been able to directly see her impact beyond Candace Parker.
Playing up tight like we have a box of franzia up our asses. Horrible.

Going to be a long damn day by the looks of it
Expecting the fake Vols trolls to light up the board in 3…. 2… 1…
