Aw. Such a sweet sentiment.

Did he make it to the VFL game last year. There were like almost 200 former players at that game.

R.I.P. Mr. Lauricella. Thanks for always representing UT the right way.

Sorry to hear of his passing. He was one of the greatest Tennessee football legends ever

 

[Manvol]

Yes

I got this picture autographed of him during the statue ceremony. He actually chatted with me about it. I also got the 51 team picture signed by him and others. Such a great genuine man. RIP

I hope they have an area in the Anderson Training Center for Neyland and all the great players of the past. They could name the New Hall of Fame Area after Neyland and have old pictures, trophies, awards, records, etc. I just feel we need to honor our past in a more visible way. The Neyland statue was a great first step.

 

[orange_glory]

Put up some graphics of Neyland with his teams, and graphics of past players.

Excellent video on bleacher report...i knew Jody Ellis who played with Mr Laricella and i miss his stories...off season is the perfect time to appreciate Tennesse football history.

That is a pretty beautiful way of thinking :cray:

Yes

I have this picture hanging in my office at home and it is one of my favorites. He was a VFL in every sense of the word and was a great representative of UT.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Lauricella a couple of times--once, years ago, at his house. He was a very nice man and a great Vol, of course.
