Funny stuff! Travis has written for Tide sites since '96 or so. Actually first read him when his brother was being recruited by Bama in that same year. Always a good read. The article is "Better Know Your Foe." It's on the Checkerboad forum. I'm fairly sure you dont have to be a subscriber in order to read it.

I pretty much can't read anything written by Wes Rucker. I've seen a couple of these "Better Know Your Foe" interviews and they are brutally, brutally awful. Rucker finds himself hilarious.

TR is worth the read. Other Vols say this is the best of that weekly segment.

I recommended the article because of TR, who is an excellent writer with a great sense of humor to boot.

I'd only read one story from Rucker before and that was after the OU-UT game. He did come on our board at BamaOnline yesterday, and I've now mentioned to him in a post that it's perhaps best for him to omit the term "stomped" from his vocabulary. If you read his article after the OU game (even I can't believe he wrote that) then ya know what I mean...;)
