I suppose that what one thinks of this depends on one's opinion of these uniforms. (1) They might inspire the team to an outstanding performance on Saturday. Or (2) After the beating we're likely to take, we probably won't see Smokey gray anytime soon in the future. So there is something for everyone.

Sports / VTTW Message Board / The local station just left the UT game.......

......to go to the UGA/LSU game.
What really ticks me off is when this station was the local ACC affiliate, they would never leave the noon ACC game early to show the 3:30 CBS game. They would even show the post game wrap up and commercials before they would show the CBS game.
I guess there are more UGA fans than UT fans here.
So now I'm watching on UTSports.

How long has it been since you've been on The Strip?
The Roman Room and Sam and Andy's closed about 12 years ago. Regas on 17th closed way before that.
Travesty! I could eat a Vol Burger with a PBR right now.

Is The Roman Room not open anymore? The Roman Room, Krystal and Regas on 17th put about 15 pounds on me while I was at UT.

If either of the freshman were ready, I think we would have seen them by now. Even Fulmer played two at one time.
If we're playing solely for the future, then put the better of them in. What do we have to lose? But if you're playing to somehow scrape by and get a bowl game, I shudder to think, but Worley might be it. After all, if either of the freshman were now better than Worley, they would have already been playing.

I am 11 for 11 in the CFP!!! I'm scaring myself. I saw that. What a start. I'm sandbagging it this week. I picked a lot of upsets this week knowing that if I tanked I have another score that's good that will take the place of a bad score this week. I hope you win it this week.

Way too early to blame coaching.....well, this coaching staff. The talent DOES NOT EXIST for the SEC. No coach could pull out miracles from this team. No talent + no depth = sucky team!
Well said. My thoughts exactly.

Sports / VTTW Message Board / I'll probably be getting into a second bottle of wine tonight.....

Not because we lost. I expected that. In fact I had already accepted the fact that this year would suck. What shocks and depresses me is this: We have absolutely no big play makers. If we do, they haven't shown it yet.
Even considering what happened to UT with the coaching changes (and the coaches themselves), I'm still amazed at how little talent we really have.
If Butch can get anything out of this group this year, it will be a great job. Otherwise there's no way to really judge how the coaching staff is doing because of how little they have to work with.
In the meantime, we'll have to slog though a difficult season. And drink more wine.

If he is too stupid or lazy to be able to find food at a major university athletic program, his credibility about anything is in question. I would think food is the last thing they would have trouble obtaining.
And if the money allegation is true, once again it is proof positive that giving rule-breaking extra benefits to these guys is nothing but trouble. They will roll over on you in a minute. Now that's certainly not the main reason you shouldn't do it. But it certainly should be considered by those tempted to do so.
One other point. I think that ever since he left UT he has held a grudge. I read an interview of him sometime back in which he took offense to being perceived as a fumbler while at UT. He knew UT fans held it against him that he fumbled in some crucial situations but he didn't feel like he fumbled that much.
