Renaldo Woolridge (a.k.a. Swiperboy) “Gone”

Here is the latest, and in my opinion the best yet, from Swiperboy, or for all those Tennessee Vol basketball fans out there Renaldo Woolridge. Woolridge, or Swiperboy, is a rising junior on the Tennessee Volunteers men’s basketball team, and at one point a starter at small forward this past year.

This is definitely the most clean beat from Woolridge whose most well known release up until now was the Eric Berry for Heisman video. Still, in between runnin with Bruce Pearl’s baller Vols, Woolridge also managed to lay down tracks on Tennessee Volunteer athletics, the Vol’s recent Elite 8 appearance and another one calling out one former football coach. It’s also a plus that most of his videos, including “Gone,” feature parts of the University of Tennessee campus and its athletes prominently.

Should the basketball part of Woolridge’s life not come to fruition, it seems he has a budding music career on the horizon should he continue on that path… And don’t miss a Melvin Goins cameo baller Vols.

A Season for the Ages…..

Thanks for the memories Wayne...

What can you say when a Vol basketball team which you have vehemently cheered for over the years goes farther than any other previous team has, yet misses basketball immortality by mere seconds?

I guess all you can say is thanks for the ride. To coach Bruce Pearl for taking this Volunteer basketball team to heights never reached before. To seniors Wheezy (Wayne Chism), Prince (J.P. Prince) and B-Maze (Bobby Maze) for their steadfast leadership, and everyone else – Brian Williams, Scotty Hopson, Cam Tatum, Kenny Hall, Steven Pearl, Melvin Goins, Josh Bone, Skylar McBee, Renaldo Woolridge, Emanuel Negedu and Quinn Cannington for their perseverance, hustle and never-say-die attitude.

It has literally been a season for the ages for the 2010 University of Tennessee Volunteers basketball team and one that won’t be forgotten anytime soon… So,  savor the memories and let’s do it again next year!

GO VOLS!!!

The Volunteers reached the Elite Eight for the first time in school history Friday, March 26 with a victory over 2-seed Ohio State. This is a great video featuring the broadcast by the Vol network and highlighting the moments before, during and after the game. Wayne Chism gets his proper due in the locker room following the game. The senior has won more games than any Vol ever and recorded a stat line of 22 points and 11 rebounds against the Buckeyes. The Vols move on to play Michigan State in the Elite Eight.

Tennessee got a much needed victory over the No. 1 Kansas Jayhawks in January, setting the tone for the Vols’ 2010 basketball season. This victory came soon after a Jan. 1 incident which led to forward Tyler Smith being kicked off the team and reserves Cameron Tatum, Melvin Goins and Brian Williams being suspended indefinitely. Game highlights included a 17-point effort from Scotty Hopson, a 16-point effort by Bobby Maze and a huge 3-pointer as the 24-second clock was winding down in the 2nd half by walk-on freshman Skylar McBee.
