Clay Travis (merged)

I listen to 3HL most days. Clay talks up Franklin because Franklin listens and calls into the show. Franklin is butt kissing to them to get air time for Vandy. Dooley shuts him up everytime he comes on the show and Clay can use his Vandy education to say he is smarter than you. He can't do that to Dooley and it pisses him off.

Outside of writing "On Rocky Top" what has he done to make people think he's a UT fan? Even the book was just a guy covering a football team.

Fulmer left and he lost his in for football information. He's jaded and jilted. Why do people listen or pay attention to him? It's like caring what Paul Finebaum or Thom Abraham think. They're blowhards that are appeasing their listening base.


The problem is Nashville is a Vandy fanbase.

Not even close. There are more UT fans in Joelton than there are Vandy fans in Nashville.

People are listening to him and commenting. It's exactly what he wants. Who cares if he likes Franklin and vandy. He didn't go to UT. What do you expect.

He might need to hope that guy Stacey doesn't come down there and beat his ass all the way back to his potato farm in Ireland. Dude's going get his ass kicked one day.

These threads empower him. He unapologetically claims that the more people that hate him, the more money he makes. Dude has become semi famous doing this crap. Knowing this, how the hell does he piss so many of you off? Just ignore him. HE DOESN'T MATTER.

What is crazy is that some of you consider a win against Vanderbilt to be a validation that Derek Dooley is a good coach. Come on, now. He has to win against the big time teams in the SEC if he wants to keep this job. That is just the fact of the situation and there is no way around it. We all want him to suceed but if he doesn't win games, he will not have a job here.

But its only year 1, remeber last year was year 0 and we have to give everyone 4-5 years. I mean Kiffin is only in year 3 he still has 2 more years to turn this team around!

No, seriously I agree. I want him to win and I'm happy we beat Vandy but if we keep losing to Bama UGA and Florida, I don't care if we win everyother game I want whoever is coaching gone. To be the best you have to beat the best and I want NCs

I would agree with this except that he gets so butt hurt and defensive on his Twitter and website.

I have read Clay Travis's book, 'On Rocky Top.' Go read the first couple of chapters of this book, and you will soon realize this guy knows nothing about football. In the simplest terms, Mr. Travis is an nonathletic wanna be. I used to listen to his show, but after reading his book, I stopped. When it comes to sports, he is an idiot.

But did you know that his grandpa played for UT? Therefore he is a greater fan than you, amiright?

Remind everyone how much of a Tennessee fan throughout Dixieland Delight, or talking about how his great grandfather played at Tennessee, reminding everyone once again how much he loved Tennessee throughout on Rocky Top...

I don't get it. Talking here does nothing for him. Buy his books, hit up his site, follow him on twitter that might help him.

"he also has you guys talking about him"
? arent you the one talking about him?

Wonder if he would put some money on that 7-5 record? I'm sure someone on here with some money would take the over on 7.5 wins next year for ten grand or so if Clay Travis is so sure of himself.

And by making a thread about him you are just adding fuel to that fire. He is not important and should not be deserving of 1 thread, and certainly not the 5-6 threads we see at the moment.
