Per Volfan X: 8 players put on notice by Kiffin

[utvolpj]

It's all about perception. We have had a "blackeye" for some time (Fulmer Cup) when it comes to discipline.

this could be seen as CLK "cleaning up" the program. I don't see a problem with CLK telling his players that.

Yeah the Fulmer cup started by a gator and never won by UT is clearly a black eye. Using the FC to make a point is useless

Well if Pope has no hair come spring - then we better not see any dreads hanging out of helmet either.

 

[BeecherVol]

With all the hair, he can't see.

If a head ball coach wants him to cut his toe nails...he better cut his toe nails. It looks like it's going to be the Kiffin way or the Highway. A football players hair isn't above the word "TEAM". If Kiff wants it trimmed up, then trim it up.

Screw that, dreads are awesome.

Telling a guy to get his hair cut is stupid!

If your employer told you to get a haircut or be fired would you?

Whether you agree or disagree these student athletes are a representation of the university. Clean them up so they look respectful on TV. Clean their act up CLK :rock:

 

[chavisut]

It was named the Fulmer Cup because of the previous season. We would hold the record if it was around a season earlier.

You're really grasping at short straws. :jpshakehead:

Troy seems to see just fine.

Is the military stupid?

This isn't the military. It's college.

Pat Tillman had long hair before he joined the military.

I don't care who started. It is a GREAT example to show that the University of Tennessee was associated with a title like the Fulmer Cup. I didn't say we won it or who invented it...just saying that it all goes down to perception. And we were linked to it because of the name.

That's what I thought, their are pretty good at what they do.

UNIFORMITY!

Does long hair make them player better, or be better people?

Lose it boys.

High and Tight!

 

[cardinalvol]

Get real! If the coach wants it cut, cut it or leave! Its simple and its not a democracy!

Forgot to hit the sarcasm button off.

You said making someone cut their hair is stupid......

 

[bburger991]

Yes, it is.

Does it affect his on field performance? How about his grades? His moral character?

No, but it affects perception, and thats huge. Your not going to go to a job interview in a wifebeater and gym shorts are you? It's not like he has to get it buzzed or anything, but he needs to make it at least presentable.

 

[VolsByNature]

Yeah, the dreads are okay to an extent. When it's hanging down to the middle of your back, they need to shorten up a little. Think there is a difference in looking like a mountain man and still having long hair but looking presentable.

 

[chavisut]

For the record, I'm currently growing my hair out.

And another thing...if you don't believe we had a blackeye with discipline with the Fulmer regime you must have had your head in the sand.

Perception by stupid people doesn't mean anything. The overuse of it to prove a "point" on this board gets ridiculous

Why? That's stupid imo. Dreads are nastier that "mountain man" hair if we're talking about cleanliness.

I got dreads to my shoulders, my mom wants to shave my head
