Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[TN-POSSUM]

I like bruce
Sure as not a window licker though

Much like Tony Vitello made me start scheduling my life around TN baseball and Kim Caldwell has now got me checking out LV's basketball games, Bruce Pearl got me hooked on TN Basketball. After we beat Texas (at TX), his 1st season, we started going to TBA to watch the VOLS. We went to most of the home games his 1st season and got season tickets the rest of the time he was our coach. Those 1st couple of years were the most fun I've had following TN basketball.

I'll always have a special place in my heart for Bruce Pearl and that team he inherited (Dane Bradshaw, Chris Lofton, CJ Watson, Jujuan Smith, Andre Patterson, Major Wingate, and Stanley Asumnu.)

Some of them camped fire three days. Pearl bought them pizza. Have fun.

He was gonna fire up the grill for ‘em, but Auburn compliance nixed it.

Not drinking for 90 days as part of a challenge and today is one day where a beer would be nice. Lol

It funny how fondly we remember the individuals or specific teams that got us “hooked” no matter how good or bad they were…..or what happened to them.

 

[InVOLuntary]

I’ll be over tomorrow

The nephew took the JTS back to Murfreesboro. He wouldn't sell me one of his bottles. I have the EH Taylor Barrel Proof. I'll bring some if/when I head your direction.

I think you're talking about Backyard Burgers. It was pretty good. I hate it closed. Their black and blue burger was awesome

I've got a great story about Backyard Burgers. Back in the day, I had the chance to get in on the ground floor when Backyard Burger was started in Mississippi.

I knew the guy who came up with the idea. I thought he was nuts going up against the big boys, so I respectfully declined his offer. Big mistake on my part

Yep .... I can still remember their jersey numbers too, especially VFLs.

Same way with the 1986 Celtics, most of the 1996 Packers, and some of the 1986 Red Sox. I was in middle school when I started following Boston's sports teams.

Kudos to Dick Vitale for fighting cancer for 2 years to come back and do what he loves...

Marmots are known to have outstanding memories. . .

I googled vintage auburn logos and got this...View attachment 720572
Is it the A with the tiger head?

Nah this


I think the same marketing must have been being done for everyone back then. Thus why this and the elephant one look so similar. And why every school with a tiger had basically the same logo at some point.

 

[Orangeredblooded]

I think this may be my favorite Vols basketball team ever. I can't defend that, and don't intend to try. Favorite is favorite. Just a feeling.

I agree, with the addition of Fulky. That all Vol deserves it. If for no other reason but get payback from the Gators.

UGA fans wear football shoulder pads to basketball games??

Makes me regret a post I made on here about hearing him calling a game years ago . Now, I’ll gladly hear Dicky V. call any game he can.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

Everything was great today except those stupid dark mode uniforms..We should have been in Orange.

 

[knoxvol52]

I swear these college basketball players these days are Delicate Flowers. One of them gets touched they fall like they've been shot...

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

I have no idea why I'm even watching this

But losing to Wyoming and only scoring 7 points is just....Yeah, thank goodness for Heupel.

Power look for women back in the 80s.

Glad he’s back healthy…..we needed a spark.

@The Dog

How much did you put on your Eagles tomorrow? I put a hundo on the Chiefs to win outright.


Don't have the patience for those parlays and other crap...

Poor Missouri always the bridesmaid never the bride...

And deserve to be even sadder.

The Bruce Pearl window lickers are having a rough day today watching the Auburn vs Florida game..

Bruce Pearl window lickers suck. They should kill their accounts here and switch over to Aubie's board for a full life sentence. Prolly the type that loves rolling their own yard, already.
