Congrats to all VOL FANS! We all made it even though at times many felt like giving up. We stayed the course and now it's time. Good luck to all. Lets do our job as respectful, well tempered fans.

I will be hollering and cheering via streaming SEC Network in my hotel in Namibia, Africa (game starts here at 11:30 pm).

Signed, the lone Vol fan in Namibia.

This is the most excited I've felt preseason EVER. It's going to be a great season Volnation, and we sure as hell deserve it!!

Getting ready to head south from Bristol. Raining here now so hope it clears up in Knoxvegas before we arrive. See ya after while. GBO

 

[dono]

Just started raining in Johnson City. Maybe it gets done before kickoff. Though the rain is much needed.

Friend of mine is a TV reporter in Tampa -- and an App State alum. He keeps reminding me about "that Michigan game." Fair enough, but I keep reminding him about Hurd, Dobbs, Kamara, Barnett, Reeves-Maybin and Sutton. He has no idea what's about to happen to him.

 

[UTodd01]

Finebaum just had a conversation with a 12 year old boy about the last decade of UT football. SMH

 

[Smokeyman]

Or Torrance Gibson.

lol, yeah. Did u see where ohio st suspended Gibson for the year? And i mean the school, not Urbie or the football program. In fact, ol Urban's butt hurt about it given his policy for suspensions (he dont believe in em).

 

[Volunteer_Kirby]

He knows that "that Michigan game" was in 2007, right? What a completely useless comment. (His not yours)
