Word has it the Lane Kiffin is taking a hard line stance. At least three players will miss the first half of the Mississippi game for violating the "no armed robbery" team rule.

In other news, a monument to stupidity is currently being erected at the gas station where the violation of the team rule was committed.

Where's Vols30 now? Oh, I guess the Bruce Pearl Statistic Clause that he uses for every argument doesn't really work here does it? But as Kiffen said, this will help the university because at least people are talking about UT again!

1 half for attempted armed robbery?

And Meyer got grief for 1 half for Spikes?

Nu'Keese Richardson was a kid that Florida wanted. There was a lot of talk about him being a big deal. He hasn't produced much this year, despite a lot of injuries to UT's receivers. I don't know if his lack of production is his fault, or a result of playcalling or Crompton's play, but it has surprised me.

This robbery was idiotic. I doubt vols30 or anyone else is going to stick up for the kids involved. It is sad, though, that some kid with a full scholarship to college would opt to go to prison instead.

[Bluegrass Kings]

Are you serious? The first half ONLY? WOW! They shouldn't even be out of jail by then!

[KYStout]

The first half suspension was pure sarcasm guys. That's why I put it in this forum.

But, would it suprise you?

[vols30]

they should be kicked off..period

Its really amazing that these kids just threw their future away. They will be kicked out of school, and should spend some time in jail. At least they will still get to wear orange. :icon_biggrin:

Yes, I agree. It just goes to show all of us that Louisville and The U don't get all the thugs.

Where's UT stand in the Fulmer Cup? I've not looked lately. :p

[chworld22]

Which ever ones were a part of the actual robbery should be kicked off the team as soon as it is made clear. The ones if there are any that were just in the wrong place at the wrong time should be suspended for being stupid.

I hope Ole Miss kicks their rocky Flop butts


Well, Ole Miss did kick our Rocky Flop butts, but It makes it easy to accept knowing that Ut is now a basketball school. Anything we do in football is just icing on the cake.


You should have seen Hopson last night. His jump shot has improved, and I really think he may be the MVP in the SEC. Tyler Smith and Wayne Chism looked great. I understand if you are worried........

You're mistaking us for people who give a rat's rear about what Tennessee does.

THE KICKER:

Did anybody see the interview of the guy they tried to rob?

He said

Just let them play football..(HE IS A UT FOOTBALL FAN)

WOW talk about devotion

Hopson is going to be the MVP of the SEC that would be interesting since he is a one dimensional non defense player. That generally doesn't translate into a SEC MVP.

Maybe a little worried about choking on the fumes emitting from that heaping pile of you-know-what you're serving up.

These are the same kids that couldn't even stay in the same gym as one of the worst UK teams in quite some time. Twice. Your best defense is having your football players bring their guns to the game. I'd be worried if we didn't win by 50.

The best part about the video was how the announcers were making fun of the guy for his answer.

Hopson: A UK reject. UT a basketball school: WTF? :shrug1: Laughable at best.

UK worried? Worried about UT in basketball? That hasn't happened since the Ernie and Bernie Show. Flash in the pan. Maybe the SWEATY one will bring back the unicycles. :p:p:p

LMAO..A basketball school http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_1_19.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxpt211ULUS)








WOMEN'S basketball maybe

As for nobody stickin up for them , ( ACCUSED ) the victum of the crime was interviewed by the press afterward......he stated " Yeah , I hope they get to play for us , thats just Tennessee " Wise choice considerin what the ramifications would be for one who was responsible for puttin some Future Tennessee Football players / turned Armed Robbery suspects into the Pokey :eek:
Talk about some
" Boy , you sure got a purty mouth " Justice !!!:icon_rolleyes:

[CoquieKat]

FWIW, 2 of the 3 players have been kicked off the team, and the third player is suspended (maybe because they're still trying to figure out what role he had?).

I have a feeling that if Fulmer were still around, the title of this thread would be accurate.
