DatabaseFootball.com lists 288 Volunteers who played in the NFL, beginning in 1923 through last season. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comffice

Of those 288 players, VoMan38 would have to have played at Tennessee while PF was either an assistant or the head coach: 1980 to 2008<o></o

That removes 107 former players who began their NFL career(s) during the 1980 season, or earlier. This leaves 181 potential candidates remaining.<o></o

Of those remaining, only nine (9) former Vols played exactly eight (8) seasons in the NFL:<o></o

<o>Not a single one. </o

Just a question, does this list include those who might have been bumped around the NFL and were on a practice roster(s) for part of that time?
