Pretty cool. This guy stepped out of the stands and into the radar booth at Coors Field.

Hit 96 on the gun.



2 weeks later signs a pro contract with the Oakland A’s.

A's sign pitcher who dazzled at in-stadium radar booth

As for Patterson's background, he played competitively up until senior year of high school, but says, "I didn't really have a good arm then."

Pruitt out here begging for WRs at SEC media days. He’s just seeing what the freshmen look like in different positions. Chill

If JG has more time in the pocket, that'll help WRs a ton.

He wasn’t begging for current VOL WRs............

Mother of all things holy!

Edited. Thanks @Bassmaster_Vol

I'm not so sure there was a real offer - kinda wouldn't put it past Urban to make s*($ up!

Might not be a real offer, but I think Saban sees himself as a coaches graveyard rehabilitation stop, Kiffin, Butch, Sark...Part of his legacy?

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

What’s the background with Zach Smith? Is he on staff now?

He’s the wife beater that Meyer protected that ultimately costed him his job. Saban was going to hire him even tho he knew of his off field issues. Saban doesn’t care. He’d hire Hitler himself if he thought he’d help him win more football games

I know.. just sitting here thinking about our current roster, production and how much an improved OL and Chaney will help our current WRs. If it shows on the field this year, itll bring in some good ones next year.

River Road BBQ is ok, but Doc Crowes would've been better for about the same price haha. Louisville has no shortage of good food to be sure. Glad you enjoyed your short stay. Next time you're in town, let me know and we'll grab lunch.

Will do..If you promise to keep my identity on the DL. I really really value my privacy on VN if you know what I mean. I have a couple of friends on VN here that know my real name, but that's about it.

You were probably just trippin in your car listening to the stereo and just thought you were at the show...lol
Bad Company does not play Hot Blooded..that is Foreigner.

Brain fart.."Feel like makin love"..I get those two songs mixed up...I did a huuuuge amount of hard drugs in the 90s.

Ok, just watched the videos from today. First glance, we look like a totally different team physically. It’s almost unreal how much bigger we look across the board. We have a much larger squad this fall for sure. I know it doesn’t equate to more wins, but we look like a competitive SEC squad

Five Finger Death Punch and 3 Days Grace are going to be in Knoxville on November 29th.. Vandy comes to town on the 30th. I think the wife and I are going to make a whole weekend out of it.

I’ll be at both.

I’m not so sure it doesn’t equate to more wins.

You can bridge the gap between talent if the other guy can’t push you around. That’s the fundamental rule of football.

If this defensive line comes around, we’re looking at a very fun year.

Maybe it's like a Rookie of the Year situation where his tendons healed a little too tight after his accident.

Elijah Simmons

Dude looks impressive. He might be starting as a true FR before the season is over.

For all you Rage fans, this is the reason YouTube was invented:



All the comments about "red shirt guy" are pretty fantastic too.

I got to see Rage and Wu-Tang in concert at Starwood Amphitheater in Nashville

I’m just floored at the visual difference in our players. What a difference a competent S&C program makes.
