For anyone who is on campus a lot, knows any players, or just knows the general reputation of the guys on the team- Who are considererd the nicer players, the jerks, funniest, etc... Conversation just seemed to be getting a little thin and I'd like to find out a little bit more about the guys we'll be watching winning a lot of games for us this year.

GO VOLS!

I have heard people on here say Eric Berry is a real gentleman and just an overall great guy. Coach Lane Kiffin, also, said he wanted all of his players to be like EB off the field. That's all I know haha.

I had different classes with Robert Meachum, Anthony Parker, Foster, Ainge, G-Jones, and a couple other guys. They seemed to keep to themselves. Parker was a freshman at the time, he would always hit on this girl that sat near me... I had classes with Katie Clausen, Rick and Caseys sister... The guys on the basketball team were the best to be around. Childress and I had the same major so we had a ton of classes together, he was hilarious. Always had a smile on his face and was one hell of a public speaker. Some of the baseball players were pretty cool as well. Arancebia(sp?) was fun to talk with. I guess being a Comm Studies major I had classes with more atheletes than most other students.

Maybe Pearl thought RC smiled too much?

Had Harrell in my accounting class in 05 (granted it was spring)...total flake. Total Mute. Jeff Cottam was very good about coming to class, and kept to himself. His desk could have been about three times bigger.

That's a pretty good list you have there. I'm not suprised about Childress, he seemed like a real cool and down to earth guy. I can't remember what game I was at but two years back over christmas break he had a double double and was chosen player of the game and during his post game interview he was really personable and funny.

Thanks for the info

I have a class with John Hefney and Vlad Richard this semester they seem pretty layed back and keep to themselves for the most part.

I've not met or had classes with many of the football players. But I have met a few basketball players. Brian Williams is a nice guy. As is Weezy. The one time I met Tyler Smith he was really cool, too.

When I was in school I was friends with Austin Kemp's sister, and I got to meet some of the players, and they were all really cool. Chad Clifton was really nice.

I partied with jajuan smith once. He had a bottle of grey goose. We were at an apartment party and one of my friends that came with me broke down the door so this guy comes at knocks my friend out, one hit. Prior to this I gave jajuan a bottle of Evan Williams (green label), in which he told me not to worry, he'd knock the guy out with the bottle. I said no that wasn't necessary, and we both had a good laugh.

Partied with Reggie Ball last year. IDK why he was even at GT but that kid was smaller then I could have ever imagined. like 5'5 or less. Partied with Taylor Bennett too, but he was a complete d-bag and had on a purple Teletubbies costume.

Reggie Ball? As in the Georgia Tech qb that got to throw to megatron while he was there? No way he is 5'5 sir. He measured in at the combine at 5'11.

I met Tyler Smith at the airport in Nashville. I brought him his bag and asked him if i could have his bag tag and if he would sign it. He was really cool. He asked me how I new he was on the plane. I said I'm a Tennessee fan. We always now what's up with you guys. He laughed. Really nice!!! His girl was pretty hot. I got lendale white autograph when he was flying out for the usc vs notre dame game. Really nice too. he had his brother with him.

Absolutely not. BC I'm not 5'11 and I was taller than him....but I may have been a bit harsh when I said 5'5.

He was an awful D1 QB.

You just insulted all other awful D1 qb's by lumping them in with Ball. Plus saying he was a qb is stretching it

Tyler Smiths girlfriend is my best friend's girlfriend's roommate. Tyler came over to his girl's place with Heffney and another guy on the basketball team. To sum up the night, my friend said he realized why TN basketball was so inconsistent last season.
