'19 CA LB Henry To'oto'o (Tennessee Signee)

[bornbleddinorange]

Where do we stand here boys?

 

[drvenner]

Start with the cadence you would use to say:
"DeSoto"

Okay, now add a stressed long O sound to the end, i.e.

DeSoto-Oh

Now replace the DeS with the number 2.

2-oto-Oh

Does that make sense?

Edit: it might be "toe" instead of "2," but I'm pretty sure I stressed the right syllables.

Seriously, I think that's a great explanation. Not that anyone is ever going to say it right, but it won't be your fault

I gave you a like ... this gif cracks me up every time.
It's just funny how it pops up when you scroll down the screen and then he jerks his head around.

I can just see it now.

Rivals Analyst: So why did you choose Alabama over Tennessee after Tosh left? Was it Saban?
HT: No, the Tennessee fans kept calling me Toot Toot

 

[RedstoneVol]

I bet he commits to the Browns now...

That's the deathblow to the Tide in this one!

HT: No, the Tennessee fans kept calling me Toot Toot

And he somehow just became a inch shorter, 10lbs lighter with half the striking ability

 

[bmaultbay]

Don't understand all the name confusion.

Just call him VOL!

 

[SLICKYINC]

Is he committing this week?

Well it went from Tosh will be in home on last weeks update. To, Saban will be doing an in-home visit. I knew something was up then. When is that visit scheduled?

 

[Jimmy Football]

Yes, and thanks for the reply.

So you're saying (no pun intended):
two oh' two Oh'
or
two Oh' two oh'

OR, per your edit:
toe oh' toe Oh'
or
toe Oh' toe oh'

I think you're pointing to the first one.
It sounds like two stressed syllables with the desoto+long o reference.

Disclaimer: this is how a friend of mine who's mom is Hawaiian pronounced it. So I'm just passing it along. I don't want to act like I'm an expert or anything.

Anyways, I think it's 2 stressed syllables, being the 2nd and 4th o. But, the 4th o should have the most emphasis.

2-Oh'toe(together, like "moto")-OH'

 

[Pepe]

It's pronounced Toot-Toot

Don't mess with my toot-toot. The only zydeco song that I've ever known to chart.

 

[Rishvol]

Come on now guys, we'll learn how to correctly say it when Kesling says it during the season.

I have seen two taped interviews with HT from the same guy, who seems to know him very well (not sure what the interviewers name is); but, he pronounced Henry's last name Toe-uh-toe-uh. Both interviews were on DLS campus during the season, right after practice.
