Lil John Third Down for What no longer in 2016-17 ?

Any more word on this? I know there was talk of the players/coaches deciding whether they would keep it or do something else this year. I'm guessing the decision should have been made by now. Just curious.

It's fine for a third down a couple times a game but not every third down! I'm not a fan of that music but it helps get people up and cheering so just limit the use of that or any other song.

It should only be played on the 1st 3rd-down of any series.

Lil Jon's "3rd Down for WHAT??!!"

Is STILL better than "The Hokie Pokie" which we'll hear on September 10th..

Just yell real loud like we used. I don't see a problem. UT fans know when to yell.

Like hell! They love singing Rocky Top Woo while our QB is under center calling checkoffs thirty yards away. Forget the fact the coaches are going nuts waving their arms trying to get them to STFU. If you don't see that, you need start coming to the games sober, or get a white cane and a seeing eye dog.

You might want to try decaf

A friend told me they were going to stop playing Lil John Third down for what this season. Please tell me this is true!

Update- He said he heard Jimmy Hyams say it on the radio 2 weeks ago.
sorry man the song works.. is it annoying and hokey? yes so are most traditions.... 50 years from now we will have put that on the map and it will be legend. Our generation will have contributed to the tradition and legacy of UT football. I personally am not a Big John fan (more a T.I. or Ball&G guy myself) but the song works and it should stay.

This was fun while it lasted, but I'm ready for something new. How about you?

The POTS can start Kashmir at start of game and play it continuously. The live version is typically 3-4 hours in length.

Using Turn Down for What made Lil'Jon a TN fan.

Any chance Butch gets Jimmy Page to come talk to the team?

Maybe they will bring back the snoozefest 'Boys of Fall' video. That brilliant video would cure insomnia. That was one of the worst ideas they have ever had.

The song from Gladiator is one of my favorite songs to hear the POTS play. I look forward to hearing more songs and more of the band.
