Henry T to alabama (potentially)

[alvinkamara]

These comments are an example of a toxic fan base for a toxic university. This young man needs to make the best decision for his future without dealing with this bs. You would think with majority of us being adults we would carry ourselves as such. At the end of the day we are fans and this is only a game we should not be wishing the kid breaks his leg.

Going to bammer is not a good decision......he will be used as a tackling dummy by saban, never see the field except in mop up time, then cast aside; I have no ill will toward the athlete, just that tainted, stained University he might chose to attend

If you had taken the time to actually read the thread you would see that's not true

Show me. You’ve figured out the quote feature.

If the family took money then I have no sympathy or respect for him or the Dad. Then the Dad makes an arrogant statement like the one attached in the OP. A complete lack of integrity. I will not shed a tear for any misfortune (short of death or a life threatening illness) that comes there way.

Rather or not they took money shouldn't have anything to do with the way we as Tennessee fans carry ourselves. The way majority are dealing with this is classless.

It’s the Dads post that opens the family up to our wrath. It’s the definition of hypocrisy knowing (without proof at the moment) they likely were given large sums of money and now are bolting when things turned bad. I stand by my comments.

So dad is pissed that UT won’t give HT $50K whenever he wants to quit the team. Got it.

Not there.

 

[Firebirdparts]

Maybe he’s just looking for a raise.

 

[901 Orange]

We have lost our best offensive and defensive players. I can’t blame HT though. He probably wants to go to the NFL. What better place to go then an NFL factory?

U can go to the NFL from literally anywhere if u are good enough.

You think saban is using a scholarship on a player that may be one and done (if the SEC allows intraconference transfers) to be a tackling dummy? You think saban would bring in a junior player just for fun?

 

[Eastknox865]

Not there.

They deleted it

 

[GAVol]

They deleted it

Yep

 

[Boston Vol]

Is he in the portal? If not, Alabama should not be allowed to reach out.

Yes he entered the portal on January 20th.

 

[VolForLife83]

That last sentence though

 

[Remy]

I know the kid is trying to get into the league but damn......this would be a kick in the nuts. Of all schools anywhere but bama!!!

In fairness to HT and his family it came down to us and Bama during his recruitment. I hope he stays but UT football is a clusterfxxx program right now and there's nothing out there which says HT had anything to do with it. I do wish him well no matter what and I'll never forget that stop of the RB at UK his freshman year.

 

[driscokid]

Well you know they give out the Ruth Chris bag so he’s probably game. Step up from Mickey D’s..

 

[GAVol]

That last sentence though

A severe lack of class.

My point is that the kid will not get meaningful playing time, especially when the game is still competitive. He will be buried on the depth chart.......little more than practice fodder.......yes, saban would offer a skolly if he has one to burn. I suppose in some twisted way it would make that victory cigar a little sweeter on the third Saturday in October.

 

[landscapingvol]

That last sentence though

You got that right. I hope he sleeps with a fatty down there and contracts the clap

 

[willinhf]

I just do not see him breaking into the 2 deep. If he transfers, he will not see the field as a starter.

that would be called poetic justice.

 

[VeeOhElEsYes]

Does we start calling him Tootoo if he goes to Bama?

 

[alvinkamara]

You got that right. I hope he sleeps with a fatty down there and contracts the clap

Easy, my friend......remember, our wrath should be directed toward the toothless gumps, not the kid himself.

 

[Orange defense]

 

[Bigorange123]

Basilio had this weeks and weeks ago. He was like, Saban your number one in the nation and your trying to get one of our few best players !!! WTH!!! He went on a rant. Lol

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

Yeah, f*** this guy if he goes to Bama. Nothing but respect for players and transferring but this is a b**** move.

A bitch move to be a starting LB on a likely national championship team and exponentially improving his draft stock? Its a smart move. It sucks for us. But we suck. It is what it is.
