It's crazy how fast my time went. It's my last, first day of fall camp. So everyday is my last, first day, that's my mindset. So, I'm gonna make the most of everyday and influence my teammates as much as I can.

He is going to be an absolute beast this year! Can't believe his tenure is almost over, but his impact on these new guys is going to be beyond measurable! He is a hell of a leader.

so many of these guys have such different skill sets on both sides

big running backs, small backs, fast qb, small receivers, big receivers, etc

same thing on defense: massive DTs, smaller DTs, edge speed, fast backers, big backers in the middle, long corners....its gonna be hell trying to deal with this bunch.

"Are you surprised at how far you have come since this time last year?"

"... No"

Derek Barnett is the man.

Lights out at 10:30p local time, Volnation. It's time. Do a good deed tomorrow/ pick up someone else's trash/leave the room/ sidewalk/ whereever tidier, say a kind word to someone lonely. 1% better each day. This ship won't be perfect, but it has been straightened to run aright. We are THE VOLUNTEERS OF TENNESSEE.

What would really be cool is if everyone actually did a good deed tomorrow and we started a thread where everyone had a chance to tell others what their deed was - not in a bragging way, but in an inspiring and uplifting way.

Sorry, random I know.

By my calculations....... 1% better each day means this team should be 30% better by the first game. Ummmmm yeah. I'll have some of that.

There's some teams in for some big trouble this year.

Talent, speed and that insatiable hunger to restore UT to it's rightful place in college football. I like it.

Guys....in case it isn't as clear to everyone else as it is to me...our roster was complete garbage under Dooley compared to our current team. I remember them being slower, WR's dropping passes, QB's making crap throws, and just not quite looking like top tier SEC talent, to the point that it was obvious even in the practice videos. I mean...remember the meltdown when Da'rick left the team? We were starved for talent.

This is not the same Tennessee and the past 5-6 years are about to be forgotten. I know most of us are really just hoping for an 8-4 season, but I think something special is about to happen on The Hill.

Im old and wore out but today I got a chub! Very excited about our Vols, I believe the hype is real! Anyhow, Ill be the first one to complain about something,,,lol If any of you on here knows the video/audio guys doing the player interviews and in Jones speech,for the love of Volunteer football, give them a clue on how to adjust their settings. The questions being asked by multiple reporters sounds scrambled of muffled. GBO~~~VFL :post-4-1090547957:

Yeah. It takes a special kind of lame-in-the-head to do something like that, and nearly all of the reporters do it. I think the A.D. ought to pick up a phone and insist on replacements, since their bosses don't seem to know any better, either.
