I think USC jr fans may be the most delusional. I mean every year they always talk crap and every year they fail. I could see talking crap if you could back it up, but these guys seem to be a 4 or 5 loss team every year and hearing from there fans you would think they are competing for national championships.

All sports fans are delusional about their teams. Complete objectivity is impossible if you are a true fan. Games are a multi-variable experiment that, in hindsight, are easy to spin positive what-ifs for your team. You could dissect every single play and say "if only..." Objectivity does become easier with practice - sadly it is commonly called aging.

The saddest recent example of a delusional fan base was Auburn during their fast start this year. Even before the collapse - you knew either SEC defensive coaches would figure out the Malzahn new fangled run-and-shoot or he gets a HC gig and moves on. Then what are they left with? What has Chizik shown? Their recruiting is well below the SEC big 5 - more on par with South Carolina. And Auburn fans were dancing in the streets the first month, and the stupid sportswriters were feeding them columns about how it was now etched in stone that Chizik was the best offseason hire in the SEC.

I'm thinking he would be a great hire for A&M. But good win last week in Lubbock.

There are some realistic fans and some unbiased experts that have the same opinion.

I don't think any recruiting expert would put their money on Tennesee having the #1 class this year. Many believe their is an outside chance and that we may make a run at it, but a delusional fan expects it.

jmva, who do you think will close with better players than the final 8-10 for TN?

We turned away Leifheit...

UF or USC hit on every guy they want?

I would like you to do interviews with CJ Mosley or the Georgia DL guys we are in on it for now. Thanks for the good interviews you post!
