| Sometimes I really wonder if these guys are getting paid... half their articles read like a freshman english assignment.
That being said, I really hope that everyone in Knoxville is on the same page in regards to recruiting... you could burn a lot bridges if we end up pulling ships from a lot of people that commit early. One way to guarantee recruiting trouble is to start pissing off HS coaches. | |

| Means they can say "well, son, you can commit to us, or we'll take the next guy." | |

| Every college football team in existence, from D1 to NAIA, offers more scholarships than they have to physically give. I fail to see how this merits an "article".

| Also, another point that needs to be made again is that Fulmer and his staff had 168 offers handed out in the 2008 signing period...

| They have more than 187 out there. Plus, this article just goes by Rivals list which isn't accurate in itself. They have offered more, we just don't know it because the services don't.
