Woolridge represented UT well and I hope nothing but the best for him.
I'm not sure how people see those as being similar either...but here's a guess.....maybe most people think in terms not any deeper than what can fit on a bumpersticker?

Very talented young man. I hope his move to LA brings him success both on the court and in the music industry. I hope he marries and has many 6'9" boys and 6"3" girls. Thanks SB for your songs and your efforts on the court. You are a VFL. Go teach Coach O'Neil some class!!!!

IMHO, Swiper boy was overhyped coming out of HS and I'm glad he graduated and moved on. What a waste of talent for a guy with his size and skill. If he can't handle a few people making comments about his lackluster effort on the court and question a few of his decisions then he'll have his little heart crushed in the music industry because he's not even that good on the mic. No reason to sugar coat it...later Swiper!

Directing the song towards "Volnation" was a very poor decision, it makes it seems as if he believes all vol fans feel negatively about him which could not be farther from the truth.

I don't think anyone is hating on him. I think most knew he wasn't going to get PT here, so might as well go somewhere that he can. Good luck SB, but I don't exactly understand your video

I've never had nothing but good things to say about him. Writing this song was a TERRIBLE idea. Those of us who have reserved judgment simply because of how great a guy he is and how well an embassador of the university he was might suddenly be more inclined to share their real opinions of him: that he's a mediocre player and a mediocre rapper.

I am not hating on Swiperboy or anything, but what exactly did he do for Tennessee? He had a few great games, provided us with some music I personally did not like but tolerated because it was related to UT.

Yes he is a VFL, but I do not think he actually "did" anything for the school.
