O&W experience

I had an awesome time. While I didn't get autographs,I walked around taking pictures. I noticed a few things that was good to see. The first was what it was like to be on the field. Never been on it before. Was cool I must say.
The main thing that impressed me was Da'Rick Rogers,you guys say everything you can to make this kid look bad.IMO your all idiots. I didn't see JH stay and take a couple extra photos with kids after it was over. I also over heard him tell security he wasn't gonna leave until he took a picture he promised a man with his newborn. Guess what he did what he said he would do. And signed a lot of stuff as he exited.
All in all I think this team can be very good. We have great size and pretty good speed. Tiny is a MAN and DT isn't small either. I think with the improvement made between the end of last year and this year is night and day.
At the end of the day I'm grateful to be a Volunteer and with a little luck we may be headed to ATL. Good luck Vols

I've always thought that Da'Rick Rogers got a raw deal on the message boards. To my knowledge, there have been nothing but rumors of him causing problems. The people calling him a cancer have no idea what really goes on in the locker room. I'm guessing most of it is just stuff blown way out of proportion.

It is what it is..... But I personally thought it was very classy of Da'Rick when JH just walked by kids saying nothing to them. He could have at least said hello to them. Instead he acted as though he didn't care. Mrs.Hunter is a class act though and a very nice lady. I had a great time.

So let's go ahead and start the JH to georgia st. rumors. Some of you are too sensitive and read way too much into things. VN is the most paranoid fanbase alive. Give jhunt a break, Dayum!

I heard JHunt telling a crowd of kids that Santa Claus was dead and that they were all adopted.

As long as Santa brings me a healthy JH for the season, I could care less how many kids he talks to.

If the media is driving, then the message boards are the nagging female backseat driver.

I think DaRick handles that all by himself.

I thought DaRick was very nice the times that we saw him. He waved over to our section a couple of times before the game started. As they were going into the tunnel at halftime he stopped and talked with my son.

Not to be out done, but JH signed both of my kid's jersey's. He was great too. Our kids didn't get any signatures during the meet and greet due to the crazy long line. So it was great what DR and JH did, they just made a couple of kids vols for life....

Awesome for the kids. If it was for an adult It wouldn't matter to me as much.Also glad JH took the time to do it. I was actually taken off guard that he left the field as quickly.So if I came across as trying to make him look bad,that wasn't the mission. I think they are both awesome and we are VERY lucky to have both of them.
