We went to the South Island the year before last. It was great. I might hitch a ride with y'all. Help keep fishman under control, if possible.

I've been to most of both islands. Only major city I haven't seen in Christchurch. Have several contacts over there.

Lived and worked in Hawke's Bay one summer. Love New Zealand.

@Jackcrevol I've got a buddy who spearfishes kingfish (yellowtail) off seadoos down there. Dude's crazy.

I just needed to share my frustration with AD Danny White and HC Heupel over the O&W game not being televised in any form. There are many, many legitimate reasons why most of us can't attend in person. For us, it's distance and helping take care of our 4 grandkids. The Vols have one of the absolute most loyal and supportive fan bases in the country. It's no secret that bowls want the Vols because we travel so well. Just ask OSU. It's sad to me that our administation and football program can't give back to the fans in a similar fashion. We want to see the team in the O&W game. Period. Their decision to exclude us is inexcusable. Disgrace. If it's our money they want, make the games available on a pay per view basis. All for a lousy $10 ticket. Pathetic.

Sorry VN. I just had to get this off my chest.

Why should we have to pay for a PPV to watch a spring game? I’m sure it will available at some point to stream and see it. Maybe we do have a new scheme on offense that we are wanting to keep secret until the season starts.

To be honest, I fully expect the spring game to be gone as early as next year. There's too much at risk by continuing to conduct it in terms of player exposure in this era of NIL/Portal.

I think it depends on the $. If they're making a lot of bread, the most I see them doing is turning it into more of a fan event/meet & greet. Not sure how many people would show up without some ball being played.
