RTT picks up a five-star recruit from Oklahoma

Nobody can say we're sittin' on our laurels here at RTT. Everybody's expecting a big year from returning starting mascot Jackson the Mule this season, and he still has three years of eligibility remaining. And although most know very little about Jackson's backup, Oreo the Boston Terrier, they can be assured that she'll be ready should anything happen to Jackson.

Still, we're all about depth here at RTT, and on Friday afternoon we picked up a stellar five star recruit from Oklahoma, a nine-week old Cavalier King Charles who will go by the name Beignet. Anyone who follows Tennessee recruiting has positive vibes about Oklahoma, what with the success we've had with the likes of Robert Meachem and Gerald Jones, just to name a few. Beignet told reporters that she intends to work like heck to live up to the great expectations we all have of her. She then chewed tried to eat Joel's big toe before taking a nice nap.

I hadn't heard of them . . .

. . . until just a few weeks ago, and then everything seemed to tell us that that was what we needed to get for our six year old. A bit pricey, but so far it looks like she’s going to be worth every penny.

Go Vols!

Cute!

Can she play D-tackle?

If . . .

. . . If I let Oreo have her way with her without checking her enthusiasm, I’m sure we could toughen her up. She’s going to have to put on a few pounds, but she’s got good leverage.

Go Vols!

Poor Stats

I hate to be the bad guy here, but facts are facts: she’s undersized and slow. She’s got no chance in the NFL. With some mass building and speed programs she may have a chance in Canada or Europe.

Sorry, Biegnet.

(Congrats on the new family member!)

Yeah, well

They said the same things about Travis Stephens.

I think the heat is finally getting to you, Aerobab.

;-)

Go Vols!

Nahhh...

Nahh, the heat is fine. Can’t say the same about the local bammers though.

As Hooper mentioned, none of the RTT uniform design entries went with the black shirts and orange pants, like we saw against that team coached by Spurrier this past weekend.

So I gave it a very quick stab.  One thing I couldn't figure out in the short amount of time I took to do this was how to get the "T" on the helmet when designing your own helmet.  Others had done it in the contest...I couldn't figure it out.
