[VOL-uh-tile]

Haven't seen this posted anywhere on RF, but apparently we're finalizing the hiring of Rock Gullickson. This is great news.

Yep that reaction is the same reaction every TN fan had. It was one of the most inprobable win ever

I stripped naked and did 4 laps around my house. I was only going to do one lap, but when the little old lady that lives next door to me started screaming at me, I did 3 more. I showed (literally) her dammit.

The future of UT football definitely isn't looking too bright right now....with the pieces that seem to be falling in place under Butch and recruiting, we are about to free-fall into being just an average program at best that is going to be lucky to win 6-8 games a year.... SMH

Too soon to say that. I'd say it's pretty murky though at the moment

LSU dad has declared war against all the recruiting sites. Interesting.https://youtu.be/F1t4OwGTsB4

Very possible if/when we botch the AD hire. I already know Butch will botch any hire he has to make so that's not going to help.

Lot of truth. We'll see if it has any impact

That was insane and considered one of the greatest moments of the year in college sports. My dad just had heart surgery and he jumped about three foot high.

Good for him. Always liked TJ's videos.

It won't

It won't

Ya never know though. Rumors are out there that there is going to be a new "Camp" in the Middle TN area to rival NPA (maybe attempt to push them out). This new camp supposedly is going to have a lot of UT backing. Why would this be if UT felt that NPA was representing them well (or at the least "not" misrepresenting them)? From things we've read or seen on here, there may be more than smoke behind those stories. Might be that even the Colleges are starting to get a little tired of it. Also if you have noticed...those sites are starting to decay.

Found it interesting that NPA was the poster he used as an example.

^^all JMO of course.

McRae gonna be cut by Cavs

 

[VolsnCards5]

Joe Mixon declared for the draft

 

[Nashvegas31]

Weird after his recent performances but assume it's more about his contract becoming guareenteed in a few days. woukd think someone give him more run. He always puts up pts

 

[PYSCHO]

Joe Mixon declared for the draft

He will get his in the NFL guaranteed!

Who do you all think will be predicted to win the SEC East next year? Obviously Fla, UGA, or UT. But no team really stands out.

My guess is
1. UGA
2. UT
3. Florida

Georgia's got the talent edge by far. May have to overcome coaching based on year 1.

This crap just pisses me off. He literally made what every TN fan and expert thought was the best possible, not a buddy D.C. Hire in CBS a year ago

Now people just regurgitate the same nonsense over and over until they think it's true

I'd love a big boy OC hire and it would get me exited to. But we did that last year for DC and had a historically bad defense.

Larry Scott will be a OC somewhere soon. If it's here he promoted from within on the O that scored a ridiculous amount of points

CBS getting his act together will determine 2017. Not the OC hire. The O will be butchs system. Period.

Blackburn needs to be like Kramer from Seinfeld.

Remember when he just began to show up and work at that office without ever being hired?

lol:

Chase Rodgers dad was asking the same question on why his son wasn't ranked higher

 

[Darth_Shiveman]

I don't know about anybody else but the Clawson disaster weighs heavily on my mind. A new system almost always spells bad news, especially with our QB situation and how many points we put up last year.

People say Butch is hard headed doesnt want to change his offense, yada yada

I think he wants to keep his job.

Yeah but the change in offense from Cut's offense to Clawson's was much more drastic than going from a Butch/Debord spread to a Helfrich, Cumbie, or Yurcich spread.

It's not like they'd be changing to a completely different style of offense or anything.

I remember george doing that i think. Is this a seinfeld test?

 

[Orange&White]

Who did Brice say was the five big upcoming visits to watch for this month? It's on 247.

 

[Darth_Shiveman]

I wouldn't say Larry Scott, if he is the guy, will be hired because he runs Butch's system. It's not the style he ran at Miami while interim.

He likes more two TE sets and bunch packages.

He didn't run the offense as interim HC though

However, Kramer did it also and got fired.
