Hey Danny White, Can We Get The State Outline Back At Midcourt?

By Cody McClure

I know I’m not the first person to request this … Just trying to help with the push here.

It’s time to bring back the state outline at midcourt.

As I watched my Vols explode in the second half — at one point being on a run of THIRTY TO FOUR and subsequently kicking Georgia’s ass — I couldn’t help but think about how much cooler the court could look.

The Nike font that just says “Tennessee” is pretty boring. I don’t like the font.

And I know, everybody is always requesting something from Danny White.

It’s got to be annoying for him. He’s done a pretty great job of giving fans what they want, but still, it’s always something.

I know Danny can’t give everyone everything they want. Maybe we should just be happy with the V O L S letters up at Neyland.

But I don’t feel like it would be that hard to get the state outline back at midcourt. I’m sure there’s plenty I don’t know about it, but I’d at least like to hear that Danny has looked into it.

Not possible because of the Nike contract maybe? I don’t know. It would be a nice ode to Stokely.

Arkansas managed to get the “slobberin’ hog” back.

What a beautiful sight it could be.
