It's amazing how many former UT qbs were good in both football and baseball. In addition to Cockrell and Todd Helton, I read somewhere that Condredge Holloway had a chance to play pro baseball straight out of high school, but since he was underage his mother refused to sign the required permission form, and he came to UT to play football (as well as baseball) instead. (a HUGH thank you to Condredge's mom :bow: )

Streeter also played baseball.

I wish I could remember Holloway playing. My dad always talked of him, he was his favorite.

Randy Wallace was also an adequate QB and great baseball player. Wallace played QB after Holloway and threw the game winning TD pass agains Maryland in the 1974 Liberty Bowl after Holloway had gotten hurt

Shuler is my favorite qb. He was playing when I was in elementary school and the first time I played football I was a qb in seventh grade and wore 21.

Manning is 1B.

I can't remember enough about Kelly other than videos and I'm not a huge fan of Ainge, Clausen or Martin so third is yet to be determined.

Randall Morris fumbled going in for the winning touchdown. That loss cost us a Cotton Bowl bid. It was one of those ridiculous TBS primetime games. It was about 20 degrees.

Ugh. I still remember it after 25 years. At the time, that was the best team Tennessee had fielded in my lifetime. After losing to Pat Dye's first great Auburn team (11-1, with a legitimate argument that they deserved the national title), they went on a roll and would have finished 9-2 without that loss to the Rebels.

It was also one of many times that Johnny's teams blew a November game that kept us from going to a much better bowl game. This one was worse, because it cost us a major bowl bid, instead of just sending us to the Garden State Bowl or something like that.

Tennessee went to the Florida Citrus Bowl, knocked Boomer Esiason out of the game, and beat Maryland. A good win, but not near as important as a trip to Dallas would have been.
