Vic Wharton transferring to Cal

[Vol8188]

He should do well in their air raid offense

Vic, wish you the best in life, young man. Settle in with UCal and do your best; hopefully good things will come to you for the focused effort. Thanks for all your contributions in 2014, both on and off field.

p.s. Was just re-watching the 2014 Mizzou game tape last night ... Vic had an awesome 1-yard-line punt cover in the first half. I mean, tightrope walking good coverage. One of his several noteworthy contributions to the team.

First Cuonzo , now Vic? Wth?

Much more sad to see Vic go

 

[TNVolunteerGrad]

Cal would be an excellent degree though.

 

[computergeekvol]

He'll get a good education at Cal and hopefully a nice degree.

 

[AthensVol74]

Good luck

 

[allvol123]

Yeah, you're right. He may only have one career TD at UT, but it's more than any of us will ever have.

More importantly, he has quit more times than us.

 

[Vol_is_Lyfe18]

More importantly, he has quit more times than us.

Because he actually had the opportunity to join the team. We have not. We haven't quit as fans, but I'm sure if you were a star high school player that was promised early playing time, you might transfer too.

 

[YankeeVol]

Good for him. Good school

 

[BigOrangeVols]

5th school in 6 years.

Hard to believe you've been correct on everything so far lol

 

[Vol_is_Lyfe18]

I just don't understand why people insist on making jokes out of a transfer. If it were your kid transferring, would you laugh? No, then you would understand all of a sudden.

Nope.

But he did. Quit

 

[Vol_is_Lyfe18]

Nope.

But he did. Quit

Playing time is like money to Vic right now.

So, if you were unhappy at your current job, and had the opportunity to take a new job where you'd earn more money, would you stay at your current job?

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

I think his goal is the NFL and ummm....good luck with that lol.

He's probably got a better chance of getting there by playing at Cal than sitting on the bench here.

 

[Biopsyman]

Maybe he can live in the treehouse by the stadium

Not going from an A squad to a B squad for more time. Hell, go to some division III program and ball out if that is how you see it.

he cant play til 2016 anyway. Its not like hes taking some quick route to playing time.


point still stands that its his 5th school in 6 years. This is just how the kid is.

He's still a white WR lol...better gain some weight and play TE.

 

[fade route]

Nothing like a kid transferring to bring out the most immature posters on VN

You've not heard of the NE Patriots I am guessing?

There is no way he was promised early playing time. The UT staff didn't do that for Josh Malone, there is no way they would have done that for Wharton.

Sure, let's use ONE team as the example...

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

Or Denver Broncos

Yea, just the best team.

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

Sure, let's use ONE team as the example...

Danny Amendola, Wes Welker, Eric Decker, Brian Hartline, Julian Edelman
