Isn't that the school that banned Butch and Strip while they were at Cincy? Or am I thinking of another place?

There was an incident a few years ago when they were at Cincy involving Alex Dale. They offered him a scholarship and then asked him to gray-shirt and made the MUS coaching staff mad.

Butch isn't at Cincy anymore.

Would seem kind of stupid to keep a kid from playing at UT. Totally differnt level of football here.

But who knows, they may not be that bright.

Interesting fact: every single school in the SEC West, with the exception of Texas A&M, is closer to Memphis than UT. Even LSU, in Baton Rouge, LA is closer to Memphis than Knoxville.

We do gain a bit of advantage due to the fact that Memphis is in the same state, and a lot of UT alums live there. But geographically speaking, Atlanta, Charlotte, and Raleigh-Durham are all closer to Knoxville than Memphis.

As far as Drew Richmond goes, I've always had a feeling he would be a tough sell. Sucks because O-line is definitely our biggest weakness at this point. It's amazing that we might end up with McKenzie and Tuttle on the D-line, but the O-line is the one area where we have had some struggles recruiting-wise. At least we landed Jack Jones, and some of our 2014 Freshmen are looking better than expected (e.g. Jashon Robertson)

Our OL will much better shape this time next year.. Clearly short on Depth. Won't be back to full status until the 2016 class in which hopefully all or most can RS.

Butch isn't at cincy anymore but apparently they still hold it against him.

Hugh Freeze, as big of a goob as he is, is well liked in Memphis.

JMO, but the words at least we landed.....and Jack Jones should never be used in the same sentence. He is not in the catagory of "At least".

Then we should build a hundred foot wall around Memphis that is only accessible from the North East side.

Saban does that all the time...I don't understand why that would be such a big deal that anyone would be holding it against him years later...

Landing Jack Jones was big, but the issue is one of depth. We need more than Jack Jones to build a solid O-line.

Right now, if you look at almost every other position group, we look like we'll be in very good (if not excellent) shape 2015 and 2016. O-line is the one question mark. Jack Jones has been our one big get there. Though, Butch has shown an ability to find underappreciated talent.

Kipp Adams knows something we don't. CB'd Richmond to UT earlier today and Boulware to tOSU just now. Seems to be on the right team...

Per Kipp Adams on 247

On Richmond, coming off the visit to Ole Miss I am told the Vols have a slight edge over the Rebels as of this morning.

On Sapp, honestly just thought I had Crystal Balled him to Tennessee a month ago,
