Let them do a five-year overkill probation and experience losing game after game due to lack of depth.

THEN - and ONLY THEN - might I be willing to consider the extension of forgiveness and resumption of the great rivalry.

They robbed me of nearly 15 years of my football joy, and I do not forgive that kind of thing easily. Let their fans know what its like and then we'll talk.

BBall is in serious trouble at Knox. Over on the Dreamsicle Orange board, both of their BBall fans are in sore travail. Their Football board, however, really isn't melty enough for my taste.

This is awesome- That used car salesman who delights in turning folks in ois caught cheating- What a joke. Well, at least he can wear that loud blazer at "Smokey's Used Autos" over off Paper Mill Rd in Knoxville.

Now if Coach Grant can just get us back in the NCAA on a consistent basis!!!

Tell me about it, I had 8 season tickets in the mid 90's, that I could hardly sell, and wound up having to let them go after eating the costs. It makes me sick now that I don't have season tickets and am still on the waiting list trying to get them once again.

Oh well, hopefully, I will get lucky one day again,
Greg

I will be forever bitter towards the UT program, many internet fans, Fullmer and his staff, the UT BOT and boosters.

I love the fact that I was able to go on their official website and buy tickets in 2008 & 2010 to the Bama game. I don't think you will ever see a day that UA is not able to get our fans to buy tickets to the UT game.

Then you're more benevolent than me, I'll never forgive them regardless of how hard the NCAA comes down on them. If they got the death penalty I'd still be wishing bad things for them when they got reinstated. Fulmer, Dickey and Kramer schemed and worked in concert to destroy The University of Alabama's football program and i will never forget that.

Maybe I'm forgetting the details, but didn't our tennessee-centered troubles with the ncaa only begin around 2001 or 2002? Where is this 15 years coming from?

Tennessean has gone the way of Sammy the Bull. You can only get away with murder while working with the feds, after that, you better keep your nose clean. Tennessee has always been dirty.

They actually BEGAN in 1998. But the fact is that without the prior problems (some of which were admittedly self-inflicted), the later probation would not have been near so severe.

So now both of UThug's big-mouth, self-centered, live-for-attention coaches have created huge NCAA problems for them. I LOVE IT!!!

Gotta shake things up! That's what they said. The big orange idiots defended them and now they're about to get the shaft.

HA! :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

That pretty much states my position as well. 15 years is close but to my mind it's more like 12 - 13.
