    According to Brice and Hubbs, he's replacing Butch.

    I love it

    LOVE IT! Can't wait to read "It should be Peyton" over at the other place.

    Per John Brice:

    At a minimum, that image will be worth 2-3 turnovers and 14 points per home game.

    Bare minimum.

    Crime on campus will plummet.

    GPA's will magically jump an entire point.

    There will be more parking.

    It will always be 78 and sunny on campus.

    With all due respect, the only other plan that I might get behind would be an electronic (LED?) panel that could rotate images of all former Big Orange greats - Cafego, Lauricella, Majors, Condredge, White, Manning, Berry, and Big Al.

    But a standalone image of Mr. Al Wilson will always suffice.

    I almost don't dare hope that Tennessee might finally get one thing - anything - this perfectly right.

    I may openly weep at the unveiling.

    I like the rotating legends better than singling out one. Wilson wasn’t our best player ever. That title belongs to a DE.

    Probably the best overall idea.

    Point is, getting up there on that board is earned.

    I like the rotating legends better, but I would much rather have Al over Peyton

    I take Al over Peyton, but not some of the others. We had possibly the best defensive end ever.

    If it's not going to be Bernie Veazey, might as well be Al.

    They may not want to put Atkins on the jumbotron as it may not be able to support his massiveness.

    Atkins, White and Deacon Jones were the 3 best, you can put them in any order to me

    This statement will be recanted, or a challenge to a dual of fists will soon be forthcoming.

    You'll just have to whip my ass.

    I think Colton Jumper is more deserving, but whatever.
