Loud in there

Looks good. Sounds good.

Go Vols!

heh

They can play a game’s worth now, then take a nap and be ready for tip off tonight.

Go Vols!

Bob Knight

Looks like he’d rather be somewhere else. Anywhere else.

Go Vols!

That's normal for him.

I think he would punch Digger Phelps in the face if he knew he could get away with it, too.

huh

Why would he think he couldn’t get away with it?

;-)

Go Vols!

Cameras have a tendency to hold up in court.

Although about half the time I hear Bob Knight speak, I really hear “my retirement tanked it and these guys are paying through the nose for me.”

Ha

We just got a peak of the guys during commercial. Perhaps the noise kept them from realizing they were on the air? Unfortunately, Knight wasn’t abusing anyone. Bummer.

Go Vols!

They were making fun of Maryland, right?

Making fun of Maryland is always good for an on-air moment.

High praise from Knight for Summitt

That was nice. 33 games per year for 30 years and still 10 away from 1,000? Wow.

Go Vols!

Change “games” to “wins.” Bigger wow.

Go Vols!

I'm going to use a word that I wouldn't normally use for Knight, but:

He was almost fawning over Summitt. That was decidedly bizarre, but completely awesome.

Also cool: the fans got quiet for the interview, and then got loud again as soon as the interview was over.

Bilas picks Florida.

As expected of a pick as Digger picking the Irish.

Cannons... fire them.

Postscript: they splti 2-2.

But Digger picked Tennessee.

::gulp::

by Graysnail on Jan 31, 2009 12:00 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

It was actually 3-1, I think

The screen got Knight’s pick wrong. He said Tennessee.

Go Vols!

by Joel on Jan 31, 2009 12:03 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

I wasn't sure if that was intentional.

It sounded like a conditional Tennessee pick, like those were the things Tennessee would have to do to win. I guess he didn’t think we could do them.

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.
