Bad call?

Was it a bad call? The Graham touchdown? Here's what I think:

 

IT DOESN'T MATTER IF IT WAS A BAD CALL!!! THE DEFENSE GAVE UP ON THE PLAY!!!

 

As long as UT is always looking for an excuse, they'll always be 2nd best. One guy on the Basilio show yesterday pretty much summed it up when he said UT should change their fight song from "Rocky Top" to "Blame it on The Rain" by Milli Vanilli.

LOL

 

You're right swamp. They gave up. And one touchdown there is not the difference maker. From what happened later on QB-center exchanges, UF gets a TD or a safety on the next play if it's not a TD.

 

A kid that goes to church with me that will be playing for the Diamond Vols this year said Graham was short though. The entire student section (and every other Vol fan in Neyland) was giving the refs the barnyard chant...

:D

As sports lovers...and somewhat intelligent football fans, let's take a look at "what if's."

 

What if, the correct call was made? Not to whine, but the kid was well short of scoring on that play. Would Tennessee come out with more emotion after a huge goalline stop? Could be...who know's.

 

There is thinking that could argue the score would have been Florida 7, Tennessee 0 at the end of the first half because of the bad call. Remember, we are doing what if's.

 

Florida won, hands down and that's all that matters. The call was terrible, but the coaches and players should have never allowed that dismal display of football happen in the second quarter. Tennessee did help beat themselves, but they lost....move on.

    • I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.
    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think. 
    • “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker. 
    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job. 
    • I am going to assume you are not a lawyer, and most reasonable lawyers would not say the lawsuit has a zero percent chance in court. I agree with you that a coach has the ability to dismiss anyone from a team. However, Ms. Winfree was never presented with the opportunity to present her witnesses and have them tell the coaches and administrators what they heard. A lawyer could better explain the lawsuit and the grounds to you. Before you start making wild assumptions about the lawsuit, would it be too much to ask that you do a little legal research first? The lawsuit is dealing with due process, loss of property, and defamation.   You can read the lawsuit here: https://bdnewsletter.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/doc-1-complaint-filed-4-18-2024.pdf
