Warning: I understand that the proceeding information is not necessary to bolster Mr. Bain's legend. However, I must share my experience with my Volnation family.

My wife and I decided to take a trip to Dollywood last evening, and it was the best experience of my life. While standing in line at the River Rampage, I noticed a large human standing in front of me wearing UT apparel. Then, it happened...He looked at me..As my eyes met his eyes, I began to shiver...ok..enough of that...

No joke, I talked with Paul for about 10 minutes, and he is the most well spoken young man I've met. He asked my name and we shook hands. He went on and on about the vast differences between Jones and Pruitt. He said that he's already been to Pruitt's home more than he ever went to Jones.

He said Jones was concerned with so many other things unrelated to football, but Pruitt only talks about one thing..Winning football games. He said it's so hard to explain how amazing it is to know that your coach loves the game of football as much as you do. (very interesting to me)

He said he NEVER complains about going to the complex because he is so excited to learn from all the coaches who have put DLinemen in the NFL. He said he feels like a big sponge soaking up gold from the coaches. He had the biggest smile on his face.

I tried to back off and give him some space, but he would turn back to me and continue to talk football. He also said Juan Jennings is definitely on the right track.

Before we were finished, he told me I would be seeing a lot of him this year.

Very Cool Story Bro!!!!!

Pics or it didn't happen....



After I introduced myself, I would have thanked him for blocking the kick and allowing us to win the Georgia Tech game.

Imagine how embarrassed we would have felt by losing to Tech and having to drive from Atlanta back to Nashville and let that loss soak in for 4 hours....
