Good morning! Our countdown to kickoff rolls along and we are at 13 days to go…
I cannot with this one. I cannot stick to one player. My all-time favorite Dawg is Jake Scott. Period, full stop. Jake Scott never led the Dawgs to back to back Nattys. What a conundrum! So, I took the easy way out…

Go Dawgs!


As a safety himself, I’m sure Kirby’s a big Jake Scott fan, too. Good call, Otis. Go Dawgs!
The Miami Sun Sentinel, several years back did an article about Scott that began “ on the last state, on the last island, down the last road, at the last vestiges of the setting sun in the United States that’s where you will find Jake Scott”. Notoriously private he spent his days either fishing, golfing or drinking. Jake, the snake was a great one.
Can’t disagree with your choice, my man!
My first trip to Tennessee’s stadium (dump) was to see the Dawgs play, Jake saved our butts that day, I remember a punt return he made that was magic.
Don Monk, here’s that article you referred to and it’s one of the best things I’ve ever read. Good call my man!!
