Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[jakez4ut]

We got screwed. Now nobody can even watch us on tv in a city we play in every other year anyway.

I'll be watching. Lol. Quit projecting. Lol

The money gets spread around the sec so doesn’t matter which pays more.

Essentially that's true but I think some teams get paid a higher percentage based on their bowl, perhaps New Years and playoff teams. Tried to read up on it but couldn't find a clear answer w/o patience

 

[buffaloblue]

Vols Athletic Department wanted Nashville. Think we would have liked Outback, MCB, Gator in that order

 

[SLICKYINC]

Is the only reason we wanted the gator bowl was warmer weather? Because it looks like the MCB checks a bunch more boxes.

The day and time also.

 

[millst987]

Outback is the only bowl I would’ve preferred, but that was a non starter

Yeah who doesn’t want to stroll downtown and get shammered before and after the game..... because Nashville is the place to do it..... good times.

 

[buffaloblue]

They work well together...they’re not a package deal.

right I agree. Any cause for concern?

 

[Paper_Towel]

AJ with the INT but the DB stole it from him

 

[yourstruly23]

I’m so pissed.....

see y’all in Nashville

 

[jakez4ut]

right I agree. Any cause for concern?

No

 

[butchna]

right I agree. Any cause for concern?

No. Pittman is where he wants to retire...so is Chaney.

 

[SLICKYINC]

Most of the people in here droning on and on about the Gator bowl wasn’t going to go to the game anyway. Set your damn DVR on 30th cry babies.

 

[SweetasSoda]

How much are tickets?

 

[snowvols]

The UGA message boards are pretty good on some of the threads today. They’re afraid a lot of the players like Swift will sit out the Sugar Bowl and they’ll lose to Baylor. Pittman may take Arkansas HC job, Blaylock has a torn ACL and Pickens may be ineligible next year. Also worried that Fromm will come back now.

You can ride on those moving bar things. What could be better?

 

[millst987]

Looks like gator still in play

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

right I agree. Any cause for concern?

Uhhh he is making over 3mil just to be an offensive coordinator for us. No one else is going to pay more than we can.

 

[KPT_VFL]

NYD doesn’t mean anything anymore.

It means all us working people can actually watch.

Lol

 

[rekinhavoc]

A house divided. Son is a UT alumni and daughter attends Louisville. Who am I kidding ? Nobody cares about Louisville. Go Vols!

 

[Paper_Towel]

Louisville and UK screwed it up for us. Avoiding the rematch is what got us to MCB.

(Music City Bowl)
Mississippi State vs Louisville

(Belk Bowl)
Kentucky vs Virginia Tech

(Gator Bowl)
Tennessee vs Indiana

How did avoiding the rematch get us to the MCB? SEC straight-up just didn't want us in a Florida bowl.

Why would Pickens be ineligible nxt yr?

 

[ATC_VOL]

Belk acting like they might take UK now.

 

[InVOLuntary]

The day and time also.

Yea, for people that can't get off work. Take a day though either before or after and it could be a good time.

 

[Pane di mais]

Screw Nashville in the cold. I’m not going.

Hope the attendance is crap.

I'm resentful about the way it was decided. But we need to shift gears here.

We want these guys to go out in style to a packed house! I really love this gritty bunch that never gave up.

I might even make the trip. And it's no short distance for me.
