Well I turned 21 today.


Been waiting 29 years for this day and Butch ruined it with a bleh NSD. Whatever I still wore orange today and will tomorrow too.

Well Happy Birthday :) This class doesn't suck anymore. It did a few months ago..the real bleh commits had all been dumped and upgraded. It ain't awesome, but it sure ain't bad either

I'm still trying to figure out how being a pharmacist working behind a counter for 25 years makes one an expert on whether weed should be legalized or not. :blink:

I've said it before. I'll say it again. I don't want weed legalized.

It's the last vestige of free enterprise we have in this country.

Free enterprise?...not when you are in a jail cell with a ruined record over growing some freaking weed. That is stupid. Legalize and tax it.

UT has a Domino team! Why am I just hearing about this? Do they play in TBA?

I ain't gonna lie. I had to look at it twice. The first time I looked at it I saw

"Dumbing Tennessee Football"

I was on the verge of being very pissed off.

The only reason weed is illegal is because of the tobacco industry.

Yup...And the pharmaceutical industry, and the criminal justice system, and the alcohol industry, etc...prisons, judges, lawyers, police, DEA...Marijuana being legal is bad for many businesses in this country. Building prisons is a HUGE industry in this country and half of the inmates are in for weed. It has NOTHING to do with protecting people from something harmful to their bodies or others. It's all about $ and marijuana becoming legal hurts many other industries.

It should never have become illegal in the first place.

Here, I've memorized the response:

"Because we're Tennessee. We've had a couple of championship coaches in over a hundred years, so we don't accept mediocrity. All the other coaches have a top 5 class, all of them. None of them ever lose a game, just winners!
Unless we beat them and then they're obvious trash.
Oh, our class is better than over a hundred others??? Don't try to push your mediocrity on me, We're TN.
The recruits beg to come here until they see our loser coach!"



Oh, 3* and Lyle.

You forgot to add that our recruiting budget is bigger than anyone's, so there is absolutely no excuse for not getting more 4 and 5 star players.

Lol I know :) Yet I'm the one who gets 99% of the **** on here... oh well, some one has to balance out the pumpers in the RF :D

I'll leave todays recruiting class with this... It's never as bad or as good as you think. While this class certainly isn't perfect, it's also certainly not a program killer. The truth lies in the middle. It's just... meh... Depending on what you may think the goals and standards of the program are, "meh" probably isn't good enough.

JMO imo tifwiw

Average star rating is a terrible measure of a class. Use the ratings the companies put out. They have sophisticated algorithms that weight quality and quantity appropriately. If you take the scenario to the extreme, you would drop all of our recruits except Trey Smith and have the #1 recruiting class. That's ridiculous.

Take Clemson for example. They only had 15 or so spots. They still took 3 3-stars. They took the best available players they could get. If they had 10 more scholarships available, they would have signed the next best 10 players, which by deduction would have been 3-stars and lowered their average class ranking.

TLDR: Average star rating is dumb. The actual rankings already compensate for class size.

Now, you've gone and done it. Some numbnut is going to run with this to twitter and attribute it to CBJ.

He actually said it at the celebration.

I'm sure the usual crowd will take it out of context and use it to tear the guy down even more.

The responses to anything Jones puts on Twitter are getting downright pathetic. Absolutely pathetic.
