Because they spend more time looking at them without pads than what they look like during play? Or because bthey want them as big as possible without worrying if they can actually move in that weight?

Don’t think coaches are recruiting OL based on camp performances. That’s the recruiting services.

It’s just difficult to project those guys

Traffic is getting to point on both 81 & 40 that THP and Munis jobs are truly to save lives. There is a fatality seems like every week.

From Sally:

In 2025, a "Safer 26 in 24" campaign on the 17-mile stretch of I-26 in Johnson City resulted in a decrease ... fatalities dropped from four during the period of January 26, 2023 to January 25, 2024, to two during the same period in 2024-2025. This area runs between the Eastern Star Road exit and the Okolona exit.

Additionally, during the 2025 Memorial Day weekend, Tennessee and Virginia saw a decrease in crash fatalities compared to 2024, according to WJHL. Specifically, Tennessee experienced five fatal crashes resulting in eight fatalities between May 23 and May 26, 2025. This is a decrease from the 14 fatalities recorded during the 2024 Memorial Day weekend.

I'm not joking when I say 26 is backed up every other day, sometimes daily because of crashes.

High demand=inflated prices. Unfortunately the only way to combat that is for ppl to quit going. It turns into a rollercoaster.

Sure there is demand. There always will be for Vols games and TM knows it.


But they are also priced well over what a sane market would dictate and TM knows it. Just because people will pay a backbreaking amount of money doesn’t mean we should price out the bulk of our fan base. So much classism going on in live sports these days. Look at the NBA. TM’s corporate greed is due for a major regulatory review and overhaul.

It's an adventure every day. Especially the evening commute. I can count on taking 36 at least once a week due to a crash.

Seems like it's got worse the last year.

Everyone wants 3 lanes, but i doubt that ever happens

you are paranoid when you're at home?

listen i'm not going to diminish your opinion. there are many social variables, and other things that can go into this.

yes there are a lot of police in virginia. but def no more or less aggressive than say, JC or KPD in Knox Cty.

If you're really that paranoid about it you may want to talk with someone, or ask @TrippieRedd for something not so harsh.

Selling days are over with buddy.
