Did he speak to you in third person the whole time?

<sub question>

If so, did you punch him in the face for Volnation?

Everyone has so many sides to them. I myself have been all the above mentioned things to include crabby, wonderful, talkative, arrogant, attentive, and fat. Sometimes it's just timing.

I can remember a time when former players were very highly regarded.
I hope we can return to those days.

He CHOSE to wear orange guys.

And speaking of SECCG sightings. Did anyone see Pearl walking around like a rock star? Or Tee Martin?

We saw them both walking to our seats 10 minutes prior to kickoff. Tee was by himself and Pearl was with a mob of hanger-ons.

Both looked fit and healthy.

Guys, I didn't mean to start a Casey Clausen bashing party. He, in my mind may be the second best QB to play on the Hill. I do, however have one more story. One of my friends lives in Knoxville and she said he butted in front of her in line at a bar while she was waiting to get a beer and she said excuse me but I was here first and he said " you don't know who I am do you? I'm Casey Clausen the QB for Tennessee." She told me that she then proceeded to tell him that she didn't give a *%#%^&* who he was that he was going to wait in line like everyone else. I don't think this girl would lie to me. It sounds like he was a little arrogant while he was playing on the hill. However, he still was a great QB and did have some big wins and a heck of a road record.

Somebody told me he was so stupid he had to get someone to open his email for him because he could never remember how...

I found that one hard to believe...he's smart enough to learn and basically master (yes, I use that term lightly) UT's offense but can't figure out how to use email :crazy:

As a Qb I liked the guy.....he was clutch and his willingness to stand in the pocket was amazing. I would of taken him over any on a must have play. That 4th and 13 against Bama (i think) stands out to me.

4th and 19 my friend

It has been mentioned in this thread already, but it bears repeating: Casey's legacy would be as "THE MAN" if he had managed to win an SEC and gotten a shot at the national title. As it is, there is a lot of he said she said about his character. Honestly, he came off as a bit arrogant, and think that is why people disliked him so much. Vol fans don't seem to care for that west coast attitude.

The way we treated Clausen kind of reminds me of the was we are treating Ainge.
It's almost like, thanks for the 4 years but peace!

Well, I mean that is exactly what it is. The two most high profile positions on a college team are the head coach and the quarterback. Fulmer's failures as a coach are being pushed onto Ainge and Clausen because of their association with this period in Tennessee football. Is it fair? Maybe, maybe not, but that is how it goes.

It's funny how many differant stories can get passed around about public figures...

I've heard stories about him being a good guy but I've also heard stories about him being a complete dumba** as well as a prick...

Who knows...I've never had any dealings with him and don't expect to so I could care less either way

These guys get bothered/pestered by fans all the time for autographs/pictures/handshakes and what not. Leave these guys alone when they are out and about. I passed by Tee Martin in the Dome and was like, "Oh... that's Tee Martin..."

Then I proceeded to walk to my seat.

Fans can be pricks if they invade their space. Anybody that has anything bad to say about celebs needs to be looked at with a skeptical eye.

agreed. when former players or anybody that has a high profile is out just minding their own business like a regular person, i think people should respect them and just leave them alone. there has to be a point where it gets annoying.

I agree %100. Had taken my daughter to a high school football game about 15 years ago (she was a cheerleader for one of the teams) and shortly after I sat down in the bleachers I turned around to see if anybody was there I recognized and came eyeball to eyeball with the man sitting right behind me. That man was Fred Smith, founder and CEO of FedEx. I just nodded and turned back around. In a few minutes he asked me if I had a son playing football. I said no but my daughter was a cheerleader and he asked me to point her out. I did and he said his son was on the football team and told me his number. We enjoyed the football together and it is one time I had with a "celebrity".He was very nice to me but I wasn't about to intrude on his privacy at a high school football game....
