| Hooker from KNS I get this Bleacher Report sent to my e-mail and this Hooker guy from KNS has alot of good things to say about every team in the SEC but Tenn. Because of coaching change. I think he ought to get behind the Big Orange since he makes a living there and write something good. But boy when they start winning he will change to sell some papers. |

Hooker: Vols have a lot of catching up to do in recruiting GoVolsXtra |

| You are right on about this Hooker guy,sometimes it seems that he had rather pull for any team except the Vols.
Matter of fact that govolsxtra site isn't no where as good as this VolNation site.
I don't like any of the reporters on that site and I dislike Dave Hooker the most. |

| I kind of like him on his radio show. He adds a little comedy to a typically boring station. Still, he weirds me out a little...you know, because of the whole ginger thing. |

| KNS gives more than a healthy dose of devil's advocate sentiment on the state of the UT program. I think DD's quasi silence may only feed it in the coming months. I hope all the doubts get deafening in the coming weeks and months so DD will have more to smile about this season as he and the team prove them wrong. In my opinion nothing makes a team turn inwards and focus more than outside doubt. Posted via VolNation Mobile |

I don't like any of the reporters on that site and I dislike Dave Hooker the most. | Vol Nation is incredible. If I'm looking for info or the latest, it's usually here quicker than most places. Most sports "journalist" are no different than other journalist. They're selling a product. They wrap it however they think will push the most buttons. I read a lot of different ones daily and take away what I want from what they're pushing. Ten people in the same press room can spin 10 totally different tales with the same information. |

| JustFunnN'Orange,
Well you are almost 99.99% right,Adams sucks too,but that hooker dude really SUCKS!
Matter of fact I wrote kaplan his boss(who sucks just as bad) and he told me that he only reported the news,and that KNS was not the PR team for Tennessee.
Boy was he ever right about that,if you didn't know better you would think they lived and worked in Fla or Alabama.
Its just goes to show you why they became a free site after being a paid site,no one was willing to pay for their daily put down of the Vols.
As I said it an earlier post hooker and his site is no where as good as VolNation.
Go Big Orange |

| I don't really see what's so horrible about the article. He was ranking each team by what they have commitment wise so far, and as of right now, UT's 2011 class is nonexistent. Our only commit backed out on us a month or so ago, so there's not a whole lot positive to say right now, but there's obviously plenty of time to change that. |

| 1. Hyams
2. Hooker
3. Griff
These 3 are the biggest a-holes in the 865 and they have no business covering Tennessee athletics.
