i'm talking about the posters that swear no recruit would EVER consider going to any school up north compared to UT due to the weather difference.

I have not been up North too many times, but Knoxville weather is not bad at all. Gets a little chilly sometimes, we just had 70 degree weather on Saturday. Worst thing would probably be temperature changes.

I can count the amount of times snow has stuck to the road here on my hands the past 5 years. The freakouts are worse than the storms.

Hey dumb ass maybe you should read the op again. I said we should be fine by Friday afternoon in Knoxville but North Carolina especially was going to be hit hard. When I started the thread I was not just thinking UT recruiting. This is UNC's biggest recruiting weekend of the year including hosting Quez.

Did I wander into the severe weather thread in the pub?

What about Chattanooga? It won't get me out of anything because I don't have Friday classes, but still curious

If someone like Jaylen Miller (assuming he was still visiting) were planning on driving in it probably won't happen unless it's on Saturday. Just because Knoxville may not get hit doesn't mean it will not affect peoples travel plans.

Weather = serious business.

We lost to UK in the SEC Tourney on March 12th, 1993 which was the night of the blizzard of 93' unless I'm missing something skipping through these post. I believe the score was 101-40 UK.

This is funny. I can always count on VN for some laughs. I love this place. (Does that mean I love you people? Hmm.)
