Chris Lofton

[zjcvols]

Ever since I have become a member of the board, I make a new thread to remind us of the heroic effort of Chris Lofton and his battle over cancer right before the Kentucky game.

Chris Lofton, glad you were a Vol. :hi:

Nothing was more fun than watching Chris loftin' threes. Most of his went in.

 

[utfan72408]

A Tennessee Vol through and through. No Vol will ever surpass him in my mind.

Not so sure man. I would say other cancer survivers might disagree.

[dlew]

My favorite vol of all time

 

[bigsteve13]

Never forget.

Dale Ellis was an outstanding shooter. But didnt he really develope that shot in the NBA? Plus not real sure the 3 pointer was in place while he played.? Think he left in 82 and the 3 came into play in 84.

 

[GoobieVol]

And I meant until the NBA. My bad

 

[IA VOL]

I'm sure the percentages would prove me wrong but it always seemed that he was a better 3 point shooter with someone in his face than without. Great shooter.

It has nothing to do with cancer or sports

Definition of HERO

c: a man admired for his achievements and noble qualities

d: one who shows great courage

I am pretty sure that both of these apply to what Chris Lofton did during his senior year.
