That is pretty dumb. I got nothing against UT, but that's retarded. How volunteer translates into hound dog, I do not know.
Two thoughts. 1. Tenn is trying so "soften" its thug image with a puppy. 2. I feel sorry for the puppy. Poor thing has to live with the ridicule of being associated with Tennessee atheletics.
