Highly recommend Sturgill.

I've been on a Jason Isbell kick for a while, and it's not ending anytime soon. Best singer/songwriter out there.

Isbell produced one of American Aquarium's (the band I mentioned above) albums. He's a beast.

Assumed a response like this was coming but I don't care what shirt you're wearing when you can sing like that.

I was just joking but I'll be honest, I'm not overly impressed by his voice. I'm no expert by any means though. Half the ones they put through on American Idol I shake my head at. But, that's the thing about music, what sounds good to one may not to another.

Yeah why not just take 2 next year. He looks solid but I'd prefer 2 top backs in next class. It doesn't make sense unless they think he is a big time sleeper or he has a big time teammate that OSU and TN feel he might give them an inside shot

VQ mentioned UT may want 2 RBs and 3-4WRs in 2016. They didn't mention if those numbers included Bruce and Perry. If not, and they add this kid, you have 8-9 spots in a 20-22 count class at just RB & WR.

Will be interesting.

I actually contributed to the funding so I got a digital copy a month or so ago, it's great.

Whoa that's weird. My buddy does the same (contributes). Did dental work for all of them Thursday as well. Haha.

You heard the story how they wrote Wolves from a Julius Hodge interview? Hilarious. He came to their show last week in Raleigh.

And now I'll shut up about music.

Yeah, I assumed you were but I knew the UK shirt would draw attention. I do agree with you about music being completely subjective but I don't understand not liking his voice. So damn good.

Yeah, I knew they were huge Pack fans, BJ in particular.

I did not say I didn't like it, just not overly impressed by it. It's got a soul feel to it but sort high pitched. Just doesn't resonate with me. I could see how others would like it.

Something DeBord will need to work on between now and this season is calling plays at a fast pace. I would expect CBJ wants to keep this aspect of his offensive philosophy intact. DeBord has never called plays at this pace in his career and he'll need to do whatever he can to learn how to do this.

I don't understand why people think a coach who's been doing this longer than some have been alive will have difficulty calling plays faster.

Here are my 2015 predictions. I figured I'd just post them in here since I'm not really sure what's going on over on the FF board. It's a little schizoid over there.

The SEC is going to beat the snot out of itself next year even more than usual. I don't see any team separating itself for the exception of Alabama. But even they may lose two or three games. Here's how I see it going down:

Alabama will have to win a lot of close games next year to win the West. LSU and A&M are going to be tough. It's hard to pick against Alabama though with the returning talent they have. But it's certainly not going to be as easy as previous years. I can't rule out Auburn either. A very unpredictable year for this division. Perhaps the easiest prediction is that MSU falls off significantly from their 2014 campaign. But if I am picking a champion, I've still got to go with the most talented team. Pick: Alabama

Missouri has been a real surprise the past few years over performing. UGA has been by far the most disappointing, under performing and suffering catastrophic losses to the likes of South Carolina and a very mediocre Florida. Missouri has to replace 5 key starters in the trenches, however. Tennessee is clearly on the rise. If I have to pick between these three, I'm going with Georgia, as again, they'll have the most talent on the field. However, the winner of the UT vs UGA game probably wins this division. Pick: UGA

If you look at the SEC as a whole, any one of six teams could realistically win the SEC Championship next year but fail to make the CFP. Perhaps Alabama has the best chance of sporting a good enough record to get into the playoff. But it may be that no team escapes the slaughter and misses a top four ranking by bowl season. The outcomes of several close match-ups will change the outcome of the entire conference. Going to be interesting, nonetheless.

Alabama 12-2 SEC Champion
Auburn 10-3
LSU 9-4
Texas A&M 9-4
Ole Miss 8-5
Arkansas 7-5
MSU 6-7

Georgia 11-3 SEC East Champion
Tennessee 9-4
Missouri 8-5
Florida 8-5
South Carolina 7-6
Vanderbilt 5-7
Kentucky 4-8

UT is going to win the East next season. Vanderbilt will be lucky to get 2 wins.
