Team Bus Almost Runs Off Road Tonight

Tonight on Vol Calls, Coach Fulmer was following the team bus after a cookout, and said he saw the bus almost go off the road. The bus driver pulled over and the rescue squad came out and took the driver to the hospital. Everyone is said to be ok.

Fulmer did make a joke when asked which player was going to drive the bus when he said, that Eric Berry does everything else, so they might as well let him drive it.

I commend the driver for realizing he could no longer do his job competently. Hopefully, the guy who was following the bus learned a lesson.

No, he was on the phone with Vol Calls, saw the bus almost go off the road, then pull over, so he got out, said that he helped move traffic around until cops arrived and then they took the driver off.

He called back into Vol Calls after everything was back to "normal".

He more than likely had a heart attack or other serious health problem.

Eric Berry doesn't drive buses. He drives offenses crazy.

Yes, and I will continue to do so until TCHFCATUTK wins the SEC or joins the ranks of the unemployed.

A bus running off the road and at the end, having to step aside and change drivers.

Is this an omen for the season?

you're asking the follower to exhibit a capacity that he has yet to show to date.

pretty sure he wasn't online-believe being online while driving is a no no in the bus drivers code of ethics....as for that huge following at their website you probably know more about than I do.
