Might have been a really savvy con where they played legit for a few weeks to get the Georgia followers.
Why would they not? Those guys are safer on an otherwise empty campus than they are spending the summer on their own.
Didn't want to start a thread so I'll ask it here, am I the only one that wants to see checkered Neyland again? Granted I know who it was utilized under but damn it was a glorious sight! Hell everytime I log on here I'm reminded of it. And considering what might be on the horizon (some badass Tennessee teams), could you imagine the atmosphere it would be for recruiting? I realize Neyland will be rocking if we're winning anyways but a checkered Neyland would just be over the top. JMO of course.
I want vintage Neyland. Everyone in orange, so loud you can't talk to the person beside you, and a legit top 10 team beating the shit out of people on the field.
I don't think it will be necessary to get the crowd into it and I'd prefer anything that originated during the bjiapos/ddiapos years to go away.
I had a dream that fans were allowed but had to sit staggered throughout stadiums and vandy only had 14 people at their first game
I get the impulse, but Checker Neyland was (1) great, and (2) a fan-driven idea that was adopted by the administration, not a bjiapos idea The Smokey grays, on the other hand, just make me sad when I see them in so many of our best highlights from the last few years
