I agree with ArmyVol. Your "Jump higher Vols" crap makes you look ridiculous IMO. IF WE WERE DISCUSSING basketball, THEN JUMP HIGHER MAKES SENSE. However we are discussing football. If you wanted to say AIM HIGHER VOLS, then at least it makes some kind of sense. Your JUMP line makes us all look like dumb hicks to anyone from another school that might venture over here.

I can live with the jump higher Vols as long as it's our WR's jumping higher to make great catches.

Also if it's our DB's jumping higher to get picks.

I'd even like our D linemen jumping higher to knock down the other teams passes or picking passes out of the air or even knocking the ball up in the air for our other Vols to get the pick.

As to this # 3 pick I can also live with that.

Our coaches and players have worked their butts off for a few years now and have earned some respect.

They deserve to enjoy it for awhile.

Those of us that are loyal, die hard Vols fans have been through a decade of doom, defeat, despair, anger and agony.

We also deserve to enjoy being BACK in the top 10 discussion after so long in misery hell.

We ARE Tennessee and being in the top 10 is where we all believe we should be every single year even though that's such a hard task to do.

Enjoy this my friends, we all deserve some respect now.

I trust buTch and our coaches to keep our Team focused, level headed and on task to keep working to get better and better all Summer.

By game 1 all our injured Vols should be back, in good shape and ready fight and give their all for WIN after WIN for themselves and for all of us in Vol Nation.

Keep showing them our support, let them know we believe in them and encourage them all to make the extra efforts all offseason to strive for excellence.

We all need to keep pushing them to keep pushing themselves and all their teammates to keep working hard to become the National Champions many of us believe they can become.

I've always been proud to be a Tennessee VFL!!!

WIN by WIN our Vols will earn a Championship...VFL...GBO!!!

I agree preseason rankings are completely worthless!!

If they are truly worthless, they don't deserve comment from the "it means nothing, prove it on the field first". And yet... every thread that is clearly marked as "preseason", or "projected", is like the bat-signal for that entire crowd.

A quick analysis of the last few preseason polls and the final poll of each season will prove my point. Auburn from last season is a good example.

As for your point, that these polls are popular as a topic of discussion, I will concede that, but in reality these discussions are irrelevant.

I hate preseason rankings. Wish they would start ranking around Week 4.

I believe we have the talent to finish Top 3 for sure. Just not sure I believe we deserve that kind of hype just yet.

Let's beat UF and UGA first.

I am in favor of anything that extends my favorite pastime beyond the borders of its 4-month-a-year season.

One of those things is pre-season polls and the discussion they generate.

So I'm all for them.



p.s. #3 does seem high, but what the heck, just glad we're in the national conversation again. :good!:

I can't believe we're not #1. Guess we have to wait for week 6 or so... :pepper:

All the pieces are in place to make a run.

I remember the last time we were ranked #3 preseason. Hope this IAS the anti-type of that one.

I'll second that. We'd definitely deserve a #3 or better ranking then.

If both teams are undefeated come conference championship week, that will be a #1 vs #2 game guaranteed. Ive only been to two UT SEC championship games (2001, 2007), and man do I want some payback. Got spit on by multiple Bayou rednecks after both games. (One was an 80-year old woman).

You not understanding the idea of it, may be what gets the trolls from other schools thinking you are the hick. Think a little, then post less or more, just try not to embarrass yourself.

No he is totally right.

I had a meeting a few days ago and before it began I was shaking some hands and exuding my mojo over the lesser folk in the room when I mentioned to a coffee runner that I was a VOL fan.

Well, just so happens he was a college football fan that happend to read our forums. He said, I thought you all were a bunch of hicks because of that one guy referencing that line "Jump higher" from that video after each of his posts. Then he turned to everyone else there and said " Hey this guy is a dumb hick"

Meeting ruined. My life in shambles.

That's truely unfortunate. I will consider the idea of not posting, Jump higher Vols.

Maybe just JHV.

There, there. There, there.

Jump higher Vols.
