Eh, stars dont matter. Saban could get 3* guys and still dominate college football. LOL.

On a more serious note, it would be nice to get guys like this and have a dominating defense. But thats too much to ask here at Tennessee.

RS Jr Austin Sanders is being honored with the seniors tomorrow. Guess he will be leaving after this year. Opens up a spot.

Congratulations to South-Doyle. Not bad for a team that was 0-10 last year.

I'm stoked we beat Georgia, and I think the better team won. But to call a hail Mary play anything other than lucky is just dumb. It's a lot different than a receiver catching a TD on a designed route where (Foreman) plays awful defense.

I disagree. Butch had his team ready for the play and GA had no plan to defend it. We had the best player in the conference for that play in position. Proved it again when we had to defend one.

These aren't luck.

We put in a special kick off team/formation to bait them into kicking it to Berry. That's coaching.

Dobbs throwing the ball into the endzone isn't luck. That's not exactly splitting the atom. He threw the ball to a designated spot.

Jennings fighting for the ball is luck? Please. The guy always fights for the ball.

Bobbling is luck? Pretty clean catch for a hail mary grab draped with defenders.

That was lucky to excute the play. Yeah I get Dobbs throwing to a spot. UGA had 5 defenders go up. The fact that Jennings went up & took it over the 5 defenders was a great play on his part but lucky. If we try that play 10 times, we maybe complete it 2x. UGA defenders blew the coverage/play, while Jennings made a spectacular play.

If they get him they will have 4 of the top 5 OLBs this class.

Thankfully he still has a visit set up to OSU which is who people had long considered the favorite.

And for some warped reason they will be good to just sit on the bench and wait their turn unlike what we hear from other players who want to come in and start day one....

Man that's slang for a lighter complexion brother. The guys that we call that laugh it off. There's no where near racism involved with the comment at all.

I may get crucified for this, but after considering it I feel it should be said, so I'm rolling with that conviction. If you disagree, let her rip, sticks, stones and whatnot.

You never called Hurd "Light skinned Leroy" until he quit the team. Each time you have used that term to refer to him it has been in a negative way. Therefore it is certainly reasonable to conclude that you are using that name for him with negative connotations, referencing the fact that he is "a light skinned brother," or a mixed race person when dogging him in comparison to AK and JK for his performance and attitude.

In a world where we have so much racial tension, I feel things as minimal as this need to stop. And I believe these are the types of discussions we need to have to reach that end. We all bleed red.

It is not my intention to make this more than what it is, so I apologize if I am, but at the end of the day little
"nicknames" like that, when connected to negative comments about a person, are easily perceived as a form of racism, even if unintended and extremely trivial in our eyes. Just my two cents.

Well, according to some experts in here, the Hail Mary is 100% with Jennings on the receiving end. Hell, I don't know why we don't throw it every time we get near the 50. He could have somewhere near 50 TD's by now. Didn't you know he's two for two this year. One on offense and one on defense. I just don't understand why he only plays offense. He is a guaranteed NFL first round safety right now. I just wish some of the guys with all this knowledge would let our coaching staff know about his talents. :salute::salute::salute:

Quite the overreaction to a normal discussion. He is 100% so far on hail Mary plays. No one thinks it would stay that way. What is your percentage of Medley hitting a 58-yarder vs. another try at the long pass?

No right answer. Just a simple football discussion.
