Clip from Vitello on MLB Network

I always find it weird seeing him without a hat on.

Best interview in college sports. CTV is so well spoken and genuine. No coach speak like most others.

 

[hbvol1982]

He really is tremendous on camera. Plus he gets points for the gracious way he talked up Chase Burns. Keep him happy. Coach for Life.

Such a great question (from DeRosa) and response (CVT) about how he handles his recruits being drafted before they even get to Knoxville.

 

[DonDiego]

Y'all do know he's a short timer, right? Buckle up, dude is set to make multi-millions as a sports analyst for TV without the stress of recruiting and retaining. He's a natural. If I'm wrong, pay him, Danny.

 

[VolunteerVandiver]

TonyV is the best

I’ll enjoy the time that he’s here and will root for him anywhere he goes outside of the SEC or Cubs/Yankees if MLB.

Come on now……Recruiting is one of his favorite things to do.

Now people are saying CTV is going to leave to go do TV . He makes $3M right now to coach here, is he going to get that being an analyst?

People have tried every which way to talk themselves into him leaving.

He. Ain’t. Leaving.

This was a good day and night in Bristol. Even got a ball signed by Coach

 

[txbo]

Interesting piece on building the baseball field in the speedway.

How to convert a racetrack into a diamond? Gravel by the ton helps

I think he would miss coaching. He is making really good money and , if I was him, I would do what I enjoyed the most. I believe he really enjoyed seeing his "boys" be successful in College and beyond.

Heard through social media that the actual game turned out to be a huge failure and mess by MLB. Like, apparently they ran out of food before the game even started.

We never had trouble getting food

I wasn’t there, so I don’t know, but I saw some videos on Instagram/Twitter from fans taking videos from the stadium saying things like merch and food sold out quickly.

The lines to get anything were awful. The game itself was cool. The fanzone was trash

Lines were bad, some concession stands were never opened. Figured they would run out of food with a 2+ hour delay with people standing around under the stadium. Fanzone was way too crowded into one small area. Not all concessions were opened today but the ones i saw were fully stocked.

People did not expect lines or having to walk to park or food to be expensive and not a lot of variety and rain delay problems. If you have never been to a Bristol race you don't understand. It sits a zillion and parks 12. People were walking 3 miles. I had a friend running a food booth and they still had food at the end last night. it was a once in a lifetime experience and some had unreal expectations. Like a friend who said they could not see. He bought cheapest tickets. My response was you got what you paid for. Kirby said it was cool last night but he also had a difference experience and expectation than most.
