After recruiting hit a lull, what an exciting week of camp

It's funny after following recruiting last year to see everyone's reaction this year. You can definitely tell who has and hasn't followed recruiting in the past.

Peterman is the best prospect they signed but he's a 3 star on 247. Vandy and Miss State both have commitments from 4 star QBs this class.

This is coming from a 13-14 year old, I'm guessing.

Stars aren't everything

There. Just give the man what he wants.

You don't have to be a Vol fan, you know? I don't think anyone else, especially the coaching staff would be crushed.

This doesn't even merit a response. You're so clueless it hurts.

Nathan Peterman
Cord Sandberg

Double standards are awesome.

If there were a recruiting forum post of the year thread, I'd nominate this one.

Alabama just defeated LSU for the NC, here are there rival recruiting rankings over the last 4 yrs:

Alabama
2012 #1
2011 #1
2010 #5
2009 #1

LSU
2012 #18
2011 #6
2010 #6
2009 #2

There is an obvious correlation between recruiting and success on the field.

You claim you follow recruiting. Then you know as well as I do that UT offered at least 5 higher rated prospects before we settled on the one we signed. UT offered:

Yahoo Sports: Rivals.com Ranking - Rivals.com pro-style quarterbacks 2013

#2 Morris
#3 Burns
#7 Hackenburg
#14 Connor
#17 Allen

before we ended up with #19 Ferguson. I'm not knocking Ferguson, that's just a fact.

Don't worry about fijivol, he's still trying to figure out the wide receiver coach is.

You were talking about Peterman for some reason in the post above. If you were referring to Ferguson I apologize for the mixup and agree. QB recruiting is such a crapshoot, though. Kiffin offered 7-8 guys before Bray miraculously fell into our laps, pretty much unknown at the time.

We've already gotten more talent on campus in the past 2 weeks than the previous staff was able to all last summer.

Yay.

2>1. We win?
