Any news on the uniforms?

This is the first year in many years that there has been no talk about uniforms, color changes, logo changes, special uniforms....but with just a few days left...any word ? I don't see anything on the VU official site.

Tell us your impressions of the stadium after the media tour.

Need podcasts to listen to also. Thanks in advance.

The level of this staff compared to the last one is not comparable

Ray Davis made the Bills 53 man roster Congrats to him. Regardless of how you feel about his departure, his life has been quite the journey.

Hilarious

In Knoxville for a depo tomorrow. Lunch and dinner spot recs?

The depth chart as I see it:

LB: Patterson/Cowan/Rinaldi
LB: Longwell/Kollie/Curtis
Star: Fontanette/Ugochukwu/Hampton

Thoughts:
- Overall, I think this is the team's strongest bunch. When you start naming "guys who could play at other SEC schools" this feels like the best place to start.
- Patterson is what you know him to be; my guess is he or Fontanatte lead the team in tackles.
- Fontanette is the real deal and I could see him being a CJ Taylor-type player in that he makes stuff happen.
- I like their depth here. I've said it a million times before but I wish they could find another home for Cowan. Kollie could get some starts but I think Longwell is ahead of him. Rinaldi is a quality depth piece also.
- Hampton got a decent amount of action in the fall and I could see him playing some.

Does anyone know if the roads around First Bank are walkable to get into the stadium easily?

Billy, Luke and I will go around 10.

The mailbag, as always, is sponsored by Sutherland & Belk.

Podcast today. Love listening to Kurt.

A lot of the Robbins family is Bucks fans.

According to the VU depth chart. Holy cow. Can that be right?

There is so much going on in the off season that I’m not sure a coaching staff has that much more time to prepare for the first game versus the others. Or, should the preparation for the first game be at the very highest?

Released. Hayball made the roster for the Saints. Looks like Orji did as well. Interesting note, saw that Feleipe Franks was cut as a TE from the Panthers

In the Lea era, it seems like we give up an opening drive TD in virtually every game. Being down 7-0 before the first beer is gone isn't going to win us many games this year.

Does Lea the DC have a better opening drive game plan, or are we going to be fighting from behind all season again?

I'll tell you what was said in this thread.

The hype around the teams in ‘12 and ‘13 were obviously different, but why did we not try to make this a Thursday night game?

Everything about this weekend is working against us crowd wise. A big chunk of Vandy fans are likely traveling for Labor Day weekend, VT fans can make the easy drive over to Nashville for the long weekend, it’s a sleepy 11am game, and neutral nashville CFB fans would rather sit on the couch and watch a full slate of games. If this was a Thursday night kick, people would still be in town, and those Nashville sports fans would happily come to a game just to see some CFB that doesn’t conflict with their team. Was this an option or did we just not even try to make this happen? It’s too obvious.

Get ready for 30k VT fans on Saturday. Why would they not all come to Nashville for week 1?
