Just really hard to wrap my brain around a guy like him who's come this far, TN kid, passing on the last opportunity to wear that orange. No bad feelings towards him at all. I just remember a time where if you could walk, you wanted to be out there with your teammates no matter what. It's a different time now, though. Title: Re: Alontae will skip the bowl game... Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on December 02, 2021, 04:22:49 EST I’ll be completely honest: if he’s really got a nagging injury that will be difficult to heal by bowl game time then I’m ok with it. Otherwise, I don’t like to see players bail on their team prior to the end of the season.

I agree with Murf - he played hurt and made sure we got to a bowl game. He has earned some time to heal up 100% in order to impress the best he can in the Sr Bowl. I don't have a problem with it. It's all good b/c the guys behind him will get to step up and gain from the experience. Title: Re: Alontae will skip the bowl game...

I agree with all VinnieJust really hard to wrap my brain around a guy like him who's come this far, TN kid, passing on the last opportunity to wear that orange. No bad feelings towards him at all. I just remember a time where if you could walk, you wanted to be out there with your teammates no matter what. It's a different time now, though. I know he had a couple of injuries, one of which prevented his return to the game (he tried but couldn't continue) I'm not happy with it but it is the "new" normal and I wish him nothing but the best going forward He stuck around through thick and thin and became a good corner Title: Re: Alontae will skip the bowl game...
