Ideas for Kentucky Player intros

[TennNC]

Someone (Hat, I believe) made a good point a few days ago that the old shtick of UT students reading the paper and then yelling "sucks" after the opposing players' introductions is lame. I agree. It's old, it's not funny, and it's embarrassing to the fans.

UT Students: PLEASE, PLEASE come up with something new, especially for Kentucky and Florida.

Any ideas from the Vol Nation?

Here's one - shush the arena and have everyone just get dead silent for the entire Kentucky team's intros, then when they announce the starting lineup for UT, all the fans go berserk.

Let's think of something better and get it done (even though I can't be at the game).

I agree that the students' newspaper routine needs to go.

But, it's Monday, and my creativity wheel just hasn't started spinning quite yet. Let's all have some coffee and think on this. . . .

I think every school does the newspaper deal.

I am sure this has been done or is currently being used by any number of teams. All fans turn their backs to the court and say absolutley nothing while opponents are introduced. This should totally pi$$ off any team

We could pull a T.O. in Green Bay and moon Kentucky. I'm sure all the 80 somethings that sit on their hands at UT games would love that

Even more reason not to do it.

Better.

I mean I'm not really sure what exactly the fans can do, not many options it doesn't seem like. A couple of years ago we played at Harding University a D2 school, but they lead the nation in attendance for D2. and during the intro's they would just start talkin really loud like they were having important conversations durin our lineup. pretty good cause they were pretty loud.

Wasn't that Randy Moss?

 

[JZVOL]

yea, I was just reading something about T.O. so I guess I was thinking about him.

Do you think the visiting teams expect the home crowd to cheer for them?

 

[JZVOL]

All other schools hate Rocky Top so what if everyone just sang Rocky Top as loud as we could during the intros.

 

[utvolpj]

Start a tradition where UT refuses to intro any players but our own. Do the Vols players and then tip it off. That might ruffle some feathers.

And about being silent, have you ever seen how much blue is in the stands for a UK game? It rivals the amount of orange (or used to anyway).

For Florida, you should bow to them out of respect.

:bow2:

Perhaps signal to your team what it takes to earn yours.

or we could all vomit as most girls do when they see Noah's face

I know the newspaper and sucks thing is dated..... but it makes me laugh everytime i hear it.

A lot of poster dont like it and continue to say that the students should come up with something else....

Well the suggestions I have read on this board are worse than the current player intros.......

That could work. No band - just everyone in the stands singing.

When he signs for his first $50 million, I don't think he'll have any trouble.

Now run along, its noontime and the drive-thru is surely backing up with you on the computer rather than slapping special sauce on those burgers.

did you want fries with that?

did I strike a nerve, I must have for such a reply. Lawgator, is your man-love for Noah showing?

 

[Lexvol]

I was pleasantly surprised that Noah was so easy to rattle. I was dissapointed that they did not allow Morris and Noah go at one another. I thought the game was full of ticky tack fouls.

I hope that as UT matures they will be able to rattle Noah as well.

On topic, when any student section other than the dookies start jumping up and down it makes me want to throw up.

I think when Morris, Crawford and Bradley are introduced a simple "OVERRATED" chant will suffice. Or...for Bradley the crowd can say "Brooklyn Bust", for Crawford they can chant "Motorcity Meltdown", and for Morris yell "Where's the Fax".
