To All of the recruits and families that visited Knoxville and fell in love with the University of Tennessee, stay committed. The atmosphere that you have enjoyed, the obnoxious fan base, the loud rowdy crowds will never change. Neyland will remain TENNESSEE STRONG.

Adversity can and will show up at any school your athlete chooses to attend. That's just a way of life. Right now you're being smoozed by every school to get you to choose them. If you heart lead you to Tennessee, then stay committed to Tennessee. My family went thru this exact same scenario of coaching transition in 2013 with Tennessee. We knew the possibility of the coach not remaining there before my son ever stepped foot on campus. The recruiting coaches were brutually honest with us when he came into my living room. The one thing that stood out to me then and still until this day is my son saying Tennessee showed him LOVE. That love was never about coach or just one person. That was the love of the surroundings that he would spend 5 years in.

So whatever school you may choose and no matter what's going on stay loyal. There's no place like Knoxville. I guarantee that.

NOOOOO... i'm a creeper now... I just don't post, but today thought it was necessary.

Y'all KNOW what we went through. For the families, they're worried and up in the air. THey have other schools talking in their ear hating on UT. UT didn't change through the transition, and I'm certain after 125 years of existence, Tennessee won't change in another 125 years. We pass this love and obnoxiousness on to our generations. Naming our children Neyland, Knox, and many more things related to UTK.

Hopefully I'm the voice of reason to stay. There's no place like UTK.

Thanks for the vote of confidence MZTERRY.
Your son went through so much adversity with injuries during his time on the hill and always carried himself with the class, character, pride and heart that he was raised with.
I hope you, and he are doing well. Jason Croom, VFL. His mama, VFL.
