I guess this goes to Freak and the Mods.
Not my idea but saw it buried in a long thread.
Thought it deserved its own.
While some don't mind,
Many posters don't like reading about unverified rumors relating to the Vols mixed in amongst all the threads.
So, what if there was a separate section or stickies for these three things.
Rumors only about possible IDA's:
Injuries
Discipline (this includes drug tests, domestic assaults, etc).
Academics
So, those people who just feel that they have to share potential bad news would have a place to post it separately.
I would include a rule that the poster must give attribution and say explicitly where and when they heard, saw, or read it.
Also, They CAN NOT name a players name or specific position.
So, here's an example of what would be ok:
(E.G. "I heard that on radio station X this morning, that the host said one of our defensive starters won't play vs. Bama but he didn't give a reason why.)
Here's an example that would not be ok:
(E.G. "It's being reported that 2 defensive linemen failed drug tests and will miss some games.)
Worth considering?
