'17' TN ATH Tee Higgins (Clemson commit)

Some of you crazies need to bottle it up a little bit. You know it's bad when I go on twitter and see other fanbases have screencapped ridiculous tweets from this thread to laugh at our delusions. Whoever said that HJ gave Dabo a list of our top targets and for him to go after them.....just ridiculous. So you didn't think Dabo was going to try and recruit a Top 10 overall player (Higgins) and another Top 150 recruit in Rodgers?

OK! I for one have had enough! Freak gives us the tools to ignore Crunching the Volz. ( Notice I didn't call him a name because real men don't do that in front of a keyboard) they only do it in person. My disgust for trolls and the understandable threshold that prevents MODs from banning obvious troublemakers who continuously look over the edge but stop short of being banned to game the forum. You see, Freak is just like our parents on here. He can't always fight our battles for us. However, we can and will. We don't have to put up with people who only want to upset us.

I want to request that all true vols fans on volnation set a new standard of self policing on this forum. Lets call for an "Orange Crush" mass ignore starting with this poster and all future immature, irrational, mean spirited, faux Vols! I would request that one of our senior posters with over 1000 post lead the way and request an "ORANGE CRUSH" ignore and we true Volnation fans will respond and comply as we feel necessary.

If that is true, you sure have a strange way of showing your support. How is making our good times celebration forum and the Vols fans who are here to hang out with like minded people vulgar and unhappy fit in to that narrative? If I wanted Negative BS with my coffee in the morning I would watch the news.

Notice he/she said VN fan...not Vols fan. Sure, he's a fan of this site, that pretty much gives him full reign to do as he pleases here.

Thanks...I know it was an innocent reference, but really freaking specific! Found out that breast cancer that recurs as metastatic cancer in other parts of the body is practically a death sentence. My sister-in-law just received that same diagnosis. Two sisters same fate.

I celebrate all the time on here. Lots of Booms. Lots of welcoming new Vols to the Big Orange. Where I differ a bit is I don't mind discussing the good AND the bad as that's kind of, life. Good times and bad. Wins and losses. Sugar/Gumdrops and harsh reality. I don't mind discussing it all as there's always 2 sides to everything. Some prefer to ignore anything not coated in sugar. That's cool with me, I just don't have to fall in line. If that means I don't "fit in", it's something I accept. Its ok.

My high school girlfriend was taken by breast cancer in 12. She was only in her 50s. Turned out she had two different types. Cancer sucks!!!!

Yes, I've read your celebrations for Clemson this week. Catbone expresses himself to the chagrin of many on here and Butchna calls it as he sees it also. I don't always like the blunt truth becuase it hurts. However, their posts are well thought out and not meant specifically to generate controversy and in my eyes disrespect to our Vols. You just want to upset people for fun.

I don't know how many requests we have to have to have something done. He has already been warned, left and came back under a new name. It's everywhere and is clearly just to antagonize and stir the pot. He always uses the excuse of "just discussion", "two sides to the story", saying he can have a different opinion and doesn't have to "fall in line".... Just like last time. Nobody has a problem with any of that, as there are many positive and negative views and comments on this board. It's the intentional repetition over and over again, just to antagonize, and the intentional derailing of multiple threads. As Kristy and another poster mentioned yesterday, this is a clear violation of the board rules. He needs to at least be warned again. We also need a a way to ignore completely, even when quoted. That would stop it as well. Just start hitting the report button, and often. That and constantly bringing it to the attention of Freak is what got something done last time, and it's what we will have to do again.

I don't think you've seen me Boom at the Tee to Clemson news. Obviously not true. Do I understand some reasons why he made the decision? Sure. I'll admit I like Dabos approach to recruiting and what a commitment is. Is that me celebrating Clemson? Obviously not.

You people...(let's just get this out of the way)

...are incredible. You have no idea what went on behind the scenes with Tee's recruitment. Over the last several seasons, Butch has proven himself to be a tremendous recruiter and a top notch closer. This recruitment isn't over IMO and some of us may have to eat some words if things change. However, even if it was it would not mean that Butch STB. If Butch can pull Phillips away from LSU at the last second, if he can pull Malone away from Georgia when everyone was sure he was a dawg, and if he can pull Richmond on NSD when everyone was already crying about Butch not being able to recruit Memphis then how would he STB and let the top WR in the nation get yanked out from under his nose. Is it possible.... Sure but Butch's track record would suggest otherwise. It is more probable that Tee currently likes the Clemson offense better and thinks it is a better fit for him. You people...
giphy.gif

...need to just STAHP with the Butch is washed up as a recruiter nonsense and head back to the FF until NSD. Then you can feel free to come back over and eat your healthy serving of words and crow stew when Butch closes another outstanding class.
