Pavia is absolute TRASH!

[volfeeva]

He KICKED Tennessee’s AZZ!

Nah ,He beat Banks

 

[texanvol]

Yep pretty much like his whole family seems to be.

Could it be he is the reincarnation of Johnny Football?

If Clark Lee had any class, he would suspend him from their bowl game. Cut ties with him ASAP.

I was thinking the same thing. After the apology tweet Diego made, I assumed Lee made it a condition of playing in the bowl game.

Embarrassing for the Coach, but he allowed this type of attitude to exist throughout the season.
Think of the words Lee used when describing Pavia --- best player, leader, example and others. Sure he was politicking for his player, but what he failed to realize is that Pavia was down deep Pavia was all about himself. The true colors showed.

The Heisman Trophy vote is a farce because of the additional voters such as the Media Members, 870 total. Can be regionally bias, conference bias or Media bias. Media has the biggest sway and the most votes and stats really do not matter.

Did Mendoza deserve it, yes, absolutely. Sayin should not have been there as a Freshman. His time will come but the Heisman use to be about getting on the ballot first and winning it the next time. Prove yourself worthy. Not anymore.

An example is Pavia's family and the drinking problem plus the fact that Pavia made it all about him and slid in the family aspect of Vandy Boy's which was a sidebar for show. More humbling awaits him down the road

Add to the fact that Pavia seemed to have a strong relationship with Johnny Manziel which did not help, IMO.

All these people mad about his reaction fail to realize they're the ones in threads like these.

30 for 30 on ‘97 Heisman on now - it’s fantastic.

Must see TV - Damn I loved being that good !

The whole Heisman thing is mostly a beauty contest. How many times over the years has some big guy in the trenches been worth twice what the Heisman winner was.

Mike Rozier won it in 1983. He was a good NFL player but would you have taken him over Reggie White?

 

[ftsandersvol]

The participation trophy generation. Got invited...thought everyone was supposed to get a trophy.

 

[AndyMizunogolfer]

It has nothing to do with Vandy beating UT this season. I cannot stand Pavia or his family though. I can say say that he maybe did get hosed on the Heisman though. I mean at the end of the day he was the only reason that Vandy was relevant the past two seasons. That being said he is a massive douche. His interviews with him acting like all of those Heisman qb's were not as good as him? I mean come on man. I understand him being upset that he didn't win. Although at the end of the day you have to just congratulate Mendoza and move on.

Not really sure all of that really changes his draft stock all that much. His NFL stock was not exactly high anyway. He would have never fought for another year of college had he thought he would get a shot in the NFL.

 

[vols40]

He KICKED Tennessee’s AZZ!

So did Aaron Hernandez but what does that have to do with the OP?

 

[vols40]

Already cried about Vandy beating us up at home in several threads and several forums over the last several weeks.

Their qb acts like an ass and tells the voters "F" you. And our SuperDuperFans wanna take up for him and cry some more about how bad Tennessee sucked this year.

And I've got my head up my butt.

Lol. Can't make this up.

TAF is not a fan. Long time troll

 

[txbo]

He's not very bright.

No telling how much NIL money he chased away this weekend.

 

[Tman44]

I've seen his mother's antics. I've seen his brother's public drunk arrests. These folks are trash. Diego Poverty. He'll make Johnny Football look good!

 

[Good Ol' Charlie Brown]

Might end up being the best thing that happened to UT this year. All the other games were close, but that one opened Heupel’s eyes that a change was needed.

Sometimes to heal a broken arm it needs to be rebroken

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

You know as pompous as Vandy fans are, they hate having to hold their nose to root for this guy. He is the complete opposite of what Vandy values itself as, which is basically a slight step down from Ivy League (commonly known as part of the "Southern Ivies").

So for him to act this way, along with his brothers getting arrested around the country at games, and his mom out here dressing like a street walker, they have to absolutely hate having to root for him.

Hang on, I’ll ask my wife, a Vandy alum.

Nope, they enjoyed cheering for him and they don’t mind the embarrassing antics.

 

[oheron16]

Its okay. His time of humbling is coming.

if he gets an NFL opportunity - and he probrably will, he will be humbled very quickly, the young man needs to learn some tact and wisdom with his mouth

 

[marcusluvsvols]

But he’s 6’0” tall!!!

Looked at the other picture too where all 4 guys are wearing running/court shoes. Pavia is about 5ft8in tall barefoot. The combine will tell the tale. That combined with his tirade after the show will cost him millions IMO .

 

[marcusluvsvols]

The best evidence for what you say is Majors, after an undefeated season, losing to Paul Hornung, who led Notre Dame to a two-win record.

Hornung and Majors both have said publicly that Jim Brown deaerved to win the heistman that year FWIW.

 

[will-you-shut-up-man]

He KICKED Tennessee’s AZZ!

And the Heisman committee kicked his. It is what it is.

Anyway as a parent of an up and coming athlete, I always have to remind him to be humble. You never know who's watching. He might have pissed away a camp invite.

 

[Volosaurus rex]

Why did Mendoza deserve it? How do you or anyone determine it? What criteria is used? The Heisman is THE WORST trophy that I can think of. It's even below the participation trophies we give kids today just for showing up.

You saved me the bother of expounding upon this matter in greater length. There is no consistency whatsoever in terms of the criteria used in selecting the Heisman. On the other hand, there most certainly is an element of regional bias and favoritism in terms of the degree to which players from certain universities are fast-tracked, so to speak, and, by all appearances, definite opposition to others, such as our beloved Big Orange. From 1943-1956, you could call the Heisman the "who-is-the-best-player-on-Notre-Dame's-team-this-year" award, with five of the straight-armed trophies going to the Fighting Irish. Similarly, Army and Navy combined for five trophies between 1945 and 1963.

In the earliest years, there was also a distinct pro-Ivy-League-caliber bias, with Chicago, Yale, and Princeton collectively garnering four trophies between 1935 and 1951. On the other hand, an Alabama player did not win a Heisman until 2009, when Saban-coached players went on a run of four Heistmans, while Tennessee has yet to receive one. And, of course, let us not forget the Big Ten love fest. Ohio State and Michigan have combined for 10 of the over-hyped awards, which were conferred between 1944 and 2006.

His girlfriend also said he came up short. Dang the bad luck.

 

[SubVet676]

When people show you who they really are, believe them the first time.

There is more wisdom in this post than I can begin to describe.

 

[bugsme]

I think he fibs about his height.

 

[1morevol]

He and his family are trailer trash.

Trash is trash whether it lives in a trailer or a penthouse.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Uh...no...I don't think in those terms...like YOU, I guess...

Yet...it's HARD for me to watch ALL you dumb Goobers making FUN of him...meanwhile...That POS made Tennessee look like an 8th Grade Football Team a couple weeks ago, "out-Classing" them on the Field...And Y'All are STILL Butt-Hurt (maybe from his "hard on")...

Pound sand

 

[Renaissance Hillbilly]

I may have said it before, but in five years this guy will be living in a camper betting his nephew he can throw a football over that mountain over there.

Class is not a word that comes to mind after this weekend. What you do on the field can be quickly minimized by what you do on social media. None of us here made those rules. His image won’t survive this
