I won’t be able to attend the game this Saturday. I actually haven’t attended one this year. My wife broke her leg on September 16th, then last Saturday I had to take her to the ER because she had developed a large Saddle Embolism (a blood clot that extends into both the right and left lung by way of the main pulmonary artery), she was admitted and treated and is home on a blood thinner now. I really wish we, along with our 17 month old daughter (she loves the Vols) could be there to cheer this team on one last time. The favor I would like to ask, no matter how some of you may feel about certain players, please don’t boo them; especially on Senior day. Please try to remember, they’re college kids & while we love it and are very passionate about it football is a game and these players are all part of our team. Thank you all!

I hope your wife heals up. I’ve never heard a player get booed on senior day. I don’t think for a second many would do that, and if a few did, they wouldn’t even be heard by anyone other than those right next to them. I think our fans are way better than that. No way they’d boo Milton on that moment. Again, maybe a few idiots, but idiots are everywhere. I don’t think that’s a concern at all.

Perspective is key! A game played by youngins. We want a super year and sometimes our emotions supercede good intentions. So all that to say GO VOLS!

Prayed/praying for your family.... 🙏 🙏 🙏

I don’t believe I’ve ever heard anyone boo a senior on Senior Day in all my years of going to games. There are many names I don’t always know who I recognize are walk-ons. Knowing how much work all these young men put in, I stand, applaud, and cheer each and everyone.

Glad they got the blood clots under control and your wife is home. Thoughts are with y'all.

Not saying it would never happen or hasn't happened but I've never seen anything but respect for the seniors.

Any of those guys that have stuck it out especially through the last 4 to 5 years of this program deserves it.

Don't make near as many games as I used to though.

Praying for your wife, and you. I completely understand how it is to be in a spot worrying for your wife. If you feel like it, keep us updated on her, and you.

Prayers and good vibes to your wife for a full recovery. Worry about the important stuff, not what a few clueless idiots might do at a football game. Take care.

Prayed for your wife. I had a massive blood clot in one lung and multiple blood clots in the other, if the have her on blood thinners she should be ok, they told me I should have died but I recovered, took a while. Hope her recovery is fast. GBO
