Reggie White to be honored before ETSU game

Reggie White was one hell of a player and it's nice to see him be honored!

 

[ProudVOLfan]

I seriously hate that I will miss this! Wish we had another Reggie White on our roster

 

[YankeeVol]

That’s awesome

Reggie was one heck of a player, and he was outspoken about his faith. Miss him. I have a feeling his faith will be left out of the tribute as well.

The minister of Defense! Loved watching him play.

Does anybody else wish they were honoring him at a more meaningful game? I just feel like if they did it at say the Florida game, then The reaction would be better/louder and the team could in turn feed off of that energy.

I don’t like that they do this before the game. A lot of people aren’t even in their seats yet

Excellent player. Great MAN.

My favorite player on both of my favorite teams! Yeah, could have chosen to do it at a better game, but I'm glad they are doing this. Great player, better man!!

Glad to have had the honor to meet him back in the day @Gibbs. MONSTER size of a man, with such a complete, gentle soul and heart. God Bless Him.

This is like when UT honored George Cafego by presenting him with a used Lady Vols van with 125,000 miles at halftime. Would it have been too difficult to schedule this for a more relevant game?

I'm just surprised this hasn't been done sooner.

That could lead in a direction they don't want to go based on some of his history.

What? Say it again.

As great a person as he was a football player. I met Reggie on a number of occasions and played baseball with Charlie and Al White, his father and uncle. Both were great athletes and great people.
Played baseball with them at the old Engle Stadium in Chattanooga.

lol hoptown!! I’m glad to see somebody else bring that up. It was one of those things that was so ridiculous that I had almost convinced myself that I had imagined it ...... always good to get affirmation !!....”here ya go coach, she’s a little hard to start up on cold mornings, but once you get er going she’ll run like a scalded dog “

We need some Reggie White here. In more ways than one.

I saw Steve Young say the hardest hit he ever took was from Reggie, after he helped him up patted his back and said God bless you brother.
