Good to hear

Signed up to get notice when the Tennessee game tickets go on sale to the general public, but I haven't heard anything yet. Anyone else got any more information? i.e. a date for tickets to go on sale? Or whether I need to worry about availability? I want to take my Dad for his 50th birthday, so I don't want to drop the ball on getting tickets.

tickets won't be a problem. apparently what you need to worry about is hotels if you don't have somewhere to stay that weekend, I guess there's a shitton of things happening in Atlanta that weekend

3/27/2012 11:33:02 AM

My parents live in Atlanta, so I'm good there! Glad to know tickets aren't going to be an issue.

No word yet on tickets here either. Yeah, that is a crazy weekend. I already have 4 hotel rooms reserved

Friday - Braves v Phillies, NC State v Tennessee
Saturday - Braves v Phillies, Clemson v Auburn, Nationwide Series Night Race for Advocare 500
Sunday - Braves v Phillies, Falcons Game?, Advocare 500

First spring chart released

OFFENSE:
- RJ Mattes joins Moose and Jarvis Byrd on the spring injury list
- Good to see Andrew Wallace win his starting LG spot back after being out all last year with an injury
- Rashard Smith joins the WR's on the second string behind Payton and Palmer

DEFENSE:
- DT's Thomas Teal and T.Y. McGill promoted to first string
- LB depth for now:
1st string: Dowdey, Lucas, Pittman
2nd string: Noel, Cheek, Peek
Still waiting on Robert Caldwell to arrive via transfer
- Secondary looks very strong: all seniors + All-American junior David Amerson

3/27/2012 1:09:14 PM

what's the details on mattes, byrd, and mustafa's injuries? i thought i just read that moose was looking good in spring practice.

I hope Smith stays healthy this year. He can definitely help in the return game

3/27/2012 1:27:19 PM

Our linebackers may be a question mark but the D-line should be a run stopping force with guys at 280, 315, 290, and 290.

I think DragonCon is also the same weekend, but I could be wrong

Holiday Inn Downtown (just booked) and Omni still have rooms. Book with a flight from Expedia and you save like $50.

Tobias Palmer suffered a concussion today in practice. And so it begins...

3/27/2012 7:24:48 PM

^^^^ that and apparently, gay black pride or something?

3/27/2012 7:26:41 PM

^^was he the one that also had a concussion in pre-game last year? if so, i hope it doesn't become a recurring issue...that could be bad.

3/27/2012 7:49:34 PM

Whats important is that Logan Winkles is starting.

3/27/2012 7:53:12 PM

^^ yeah he is. I didnt hear the name of the LB that hit him but it seemed like it might have been Pittman. Said he launched himself at Palmer and would have been an illegal hit in a game

3/27/2012 8:04:23 PM

LBs bringing the Nasty (save it for the game son)

Right as I was gonna ask your source, I saw this on Twitter:

Quote :

"Michael Reed ? @WolfpackDB Close 1st day n pads was quite interesting. U always wonder who will have the hit of the day. Well it came from David Amerson on Tobias Palmer."

"PR: 2 Rashard Smith 5-11 176 *Jr. 1 David Amerson 6-3 194 Jr."

looks like we might get to see Amerson get some punt returns this year!

Apparently Tennessee's top WR is transferring to Georgia State

3/29/2012 12:01:49 PM

rumor over on PP that mustafa greene has been kicked off the team

3/29/2012 5:11:49 PM

you sure somebody just didn't hear about dj greene having to sit-out this year, and thought it was mustapha, and they started spreading that rumor?

3/29/2012 5:13:45 PM

somebody heard it from someone who overheard a part of conversation somewhere

calling bs here

from PP

if true..... WTF?!?!

3/29/2012 5:20:34 PM

It's not spring break yet, wouldn't it be odd to be kicked-off for academics now?

3/29/2012 5:21:09 PM

exactly..odd timing. middle of semester, right after spring practice starts...a couple days after TOB makes public statement on Moose.

3/29/2012 5:24:02 PM

That James guy has come out and said this was FALSE

3/29/2012 6:16:30 PM

according to @packpride "O'Brien squashed rumors of Mustafa Greene being kicked off the team after practice, saying that Greene is on the team but not practicing."

4/3/2012 10:59:45 AM

... ?

4/3/2012 11:04:44 AM

gotta get dem grades up Moose

4/3/2012 11:40:43 AM

grades? I assumed he wasn't practicing due to his injury.

4/3/2012 11:46:45 AM

^ +1

He's still recovering.

4/3/2012 11:48:59 AM

Either way, he needs to get on to the field. He should be a major factor on our offense next year.

4/3/2012 11:49:46 AM

if he's still recovering and not ready to be on the field, then he shouldn't be on the field.

4/3/2012 12:11:31 PM

TOB said he was healthy just not practicing, so there is obviously something he needs to straighten up about.

[Edited on April 3, 2012 at 12:55 PM. Reason : .]

4/3/2012 12:55:04 PM

Tighten up Moose!

4/3/2012 1:04:36 PM

^^ahh, ok. i just read what zeus posted and guessed it was injury-related. i guess he's in the doghouse for whatever reason...

4/3/2012 1:35:54 PM

getting a bit antsy waiting for these chic-fila tickets

If washington is our starting rb, we don't win more than 7 games. I'm calling it now.

4/9/2012 5:18:12 PM

If Greene starts, we don't lose more than four.
