I dont see what's so wrong with him calling Neyland a coliseum......it does look like a roman coliseum. I guess people just like to find something to nag about.

It honestly bothers me more when people call it Nay-land. I don't mind the moniker of 'coliseum.' It is pretty frickin' huge. (twss)

Vahls!!

We pronounce it in exactly the same way that we do the first syllable of the word "volunteers." We are right. They are wrong.

It's just an accent, he really can't help it. It's going to change.

If I were him I'd just go with "Tennessee" or the full "Volunteers" from now on. Probably safer.

Should be simple to fix. Hart should tell him to just pronounce it like the word "all". Even with his accent, he can surely pronounce that right

But seriously, he seemed very comfortable in his new position - unlike Dooley, who appeared like a deer in headlights.:good!:

Michigan natives love us!!!!!

I like our new hire as basketball coach, but for the love our state he needs to learn how to pronounce and say VOLS and not say the vahls.

 

[vol-un-tear]

Go Vowels!!

 

[dsvol]

Its more like vaws, lol!

Go Vaws!

 

[VolStrom]

Go Vahls. God bless him, he'll learn.

So you're saying that your expectations will always end up as disappointments. Makes sense :banghead2:

No. I'm disappointed that the bar has been set low with the hiring of Tyndall. I'll wait an see how he does before I start calling for his head. I certainly won't be expecting any final fours anytime soon.
