It looks like one of Rucker's stalkers finally made an appearance on the board.....

Very well done +1. At the game they had some ESPN talking head on the big screen who was rating the QB's and he rated Glennon's arm strength as better than Bray. The guy in front of me has probably still not got the beer out of his hair. Where do they get these morons.

Not getting in to a tizzy, just stating my opinion. Is that not allowed on here? Rucker's writing is better suited to Parade magazine ... no substance, weak on facts, and easy reading on a Sunday morning with your second cup of coffee.

I also take issue with this article.
How dare Wes mention getting a cool SBTB story from the one and only Richard Belding himself and then tell us he's never going to share it? Uncool, man. Uncool.

Promises are promises, dude.
If bragging about drinking beer with Mr. Belding is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

1stgame nailed it. Not even cool! Though I would be more impressed if it were with Kelly Kapowski

I certainly understand, and if the story doesn't involve Kelly, Jessy and/or a pillow fight, I can live without hearing it.

Like y'all don't have any fun stories you can't share.
I'll tell the story in person. But not in print or on the radio. Them's the breaks.
Incentive to come to govols247 gatherings, IMO.

Nice feature Wes.
On the radio today (whatever show Clay Travis is on) Dooley said he didn't 'trip', but instead simply didn't get out of the players way in time. He blamed the fact that he wasn't familiar with the Georgia Dome and didn't know which direction to run in to get out their way like he normally does at Neyland

The only thread that has been about Wes was the TSD thread where he shaved his beard for donations to give to the TSD. All the other pieces are about the Vols, so I assumed he had to be referencing the TSD thread.

I think he's referencing the Mr. Belding story.
But here's the deal: Anyone who has been to CBC in downtown Chattanooga a few times in the past couple of decades has had some drinks with Mr. Belding. Not a big deal. Just wanted to have some fun with the Zack Attack.
JMO. Go Cubs. Go Buddy Bands. Go America.

Pretty sure he was just stalk-trollin', since that was his first post. And sounded like he was just out to flame Wes, after a very well written piece, IMO.

At least Dooley didn't have his players tripping all over each other like Mississippi St. did.

I've heard a few versions of this story now.
Conspiracy, IMO.
