Wow... look at the smiles on all those wonderful guys.  You know... maybe we needed a few years of misery to get back to what really matters.  I love this!  Maybe we got too spoiled and too lazy... we needed some reflection to realize how great it is to be graduates of this great institution and that it's about the people first!

The VFL Vol Walk was amazing!  Our own OldVol75 participated and stopped to say hello as he passed.    Seeing former players from decades ago, and how happy they were to be there, was just awesome.

It was an awesome experience! You don't how much it meant to do the VOL Walk for the first time and run through the T again.

Why don't you tell us how emotional it was! IF it had been me, I'da been tearing up, heck, I tear up anyway everytime I go to a Volwalk and never played a down or went to school there.

He was probably walking through the T. 

Awesome tribute to you and the rest of the former (or firmer) players. We are all happy for you. I bet your sons were really tickled to see you on the Vol Walk.
