Good to see Cowart so close to Oregon's campus. Need him to stay out west.

 

[Catbone]

Literally half of the players at the opening have Tennessee in their top 2 or 3. Wow

Anybody else happy that Sweat is on McKenzie's team? Work on him Kahlil! They should dominate and hopefully J. Sweat will see the potential of the havoc those two could wreak in college.

Butch bribed someone to get Sweat, Gibson, McGraw with KM and Cherry then again with Van and Richmond. Uncanny how good that is for us.

I think they are recruiting everybody, I expect a call soon ....... I wish.

This is great! If this class is anything like the 2014 one, you can bet that the current commits are recruiting these top level recruits to come play with them!

Don't forget Love !

And now these three remain: faith, hope and Love. But the greatest of these is Love.

Have we figured out what time KMac's announcement is?

He said it will be on Thursday and the show is only airing from 8-10PM that night. So I'd imagine it will be in that two hour window.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and Love. But the greatest of these is Love.

1 Corinthians 13:13...one of my favorite chapters in the Bible.

Is that live footage?
