OldTimer’s Dugout - Off Topic Thread

Idk how I haven’t seen this video yet but man this really got me going. I hope every single player of every sport can have an opportunity to watch this. Tennessee means so much to so many people and I hope they realize that. To hear Dale Jones get choked up just tells you all you need to know. This past season was 20 years of built up frustration being released. I know we didn’t reach the College World Series, Final 4, or CFP, but these past couple of years have been the most fun I have enjoyed watching sports. There is a certain electricity going around and it feels like we are just entering a golden era. Our fans have walked through Hell (figuratively) and I know I will never take for granted these great years. I love everything Vols and I am so happy for all of our fans.
