| 2014 Class Alright, so as many of you already know, the 2014 class is chocked full of UT legacies. Berry bros, TKjr, D. Bates, etc. So here's an idea...accept it, bash it, whatever. Just throwin this out there. I'm sure the coaches are aware of said legacies in next years class, and probably do mention it to recruits. However, Dooley doesn't recruit with hot sauce, and for some reason I don't see him doing any "get on the bandwagon" selling either. So here's what I was thinking. Is there any possible way that we as fans, be it through social media, etc, could make this something popular, like a trend on twitter or something, to possibly entice the aforementioned recruits to follow in their fathers' footsteps? I believe a year or two ago Georgia came up with the "Dream Team" and everybody was jumping on board. Could any of you all come up with a catchy name for the 2014 class that somehow relates to the said legacies?

And I agree, these things attract recruits. Being part of something special.

We need something extra that will put us on top. Recruiting is not the same as it used to be. We have to think outside the box. Getting one or two of them is not enough. This is gonna be a great class and we need them on our rise back to the top. VB |

| Georgia came up with the name ""the dream team"? I don't think so lol!
And to answer your question, no I don't think we should do anything. These guys are all very familiar with the university, probably as much or more so than any of us because of their family ties. The coaches will make sure and give them all the love they need. I don't agree with pushing your school onto these kids through social media. It's not really our place as fans and it's kind of creepy IMO. Unless I'm misunderstanding what you're asking. |

| Im pretty sure these recruits want to play for a team focused more on winning than some wrestling nick name a few fans come up with. C double D and the product he puts onto the field this year will be what sells UT to these kids. We win and show stability with the coaches position they will want to be Vols too. Otherwise you better have a big name exciting coach to get these guys in orange. |
