Best of so far:

Brick Hit House
Agent Orange
Vol Wall
Hard Knox
Orange Reapers
Killer V's
Orange Circle of Death
Bricks N' Licks
Smokey's Bandits

Let's try to prune the list a bit:

  • Orange Reapers, Circle of Death, and Killer V's are all out. First time a kid on the opposing team goes down with a serious injury, any name talking about death or reaping is going to be deep-sixed really fast. So no need to even try those.
  • Brick Hit House is funny, but won't endure...commentators trying to explain it on TV will see it die early.
  • Bricks N' Licks is too esoteric.
  • Hard Knox is fun, but the Vols are so much bigger than just the town of Knoxville that this one loses meaning for many fans.
  • Agent Orange is really cool sounding, but don't need to remind a bunch of Vietnam vets about the toxin that screwed them up. So that's a no-go.

So that leaves Vol Wall and Smokey's Bandits. Which are both really awesome names that can stand wide public scrutiny, and both represent the school really well with unique hooks.

Maybe Vol Wall for the front four (+LBs), and Bandits for the DBs (+LBs).

Would love to see either of these adopted in some way by the team.

When you're thirsty for a drink, almost anything can sound like a good name for a bar: jumping jacks ... potato skins ... lazy susan ... purple haze ... flip flops. See?

So I would imagine that if you're gay, just about anything sounds like the name of a gay bar.

Just saying.
