Was at the UT vs AL 5 overtime game in Tuscaloosa... Iceman F'n straight brought it and showed no fear... Confidence, not Cocky... He's one of my favorites... The only QB we've had that wouldn't even blink if was told he'd have to fist fight a D lineman to win a game...

Is it me or does it seem like in recruiting news there is a top 100 or 300 player wh has “set his sights on UT” or “ has UT in top 3” but seem to be signing 3 star players. I know signing day is 10 months away and things ebb and flow, just seems like 5 star players are like yeah you have a great coach and university but your not going to win a title like Baka or uga or LSU or auburn.......

We're used to CBJ style recruiting where things start early and commits drop every few weeks. I think Pruitt is taking his time but it's hard not to miss all the booms. Recruiting was a good offseason distraction the way it was organized under Jones.

Agree, and we HAVE to understand that we just went 4-8 and now have a completely new staff... it will take most of the year...

Perfect timing for me to drop my roster projections for Blue Chip talent this year. :)

(I use the 247 composite and attrition is included. 2015-17 are from the respective fall rosters; 2018 is my guesstimate for this fall).

Looking at this chart really puts into perspective how bad last year actually was. It also says that you can use whatever metrics you want when trying to predict what team will win and it doesnt matter in the slightest.

Honestly am a little disappointed with how recruiting has went so far. I don't find our current 2019 class to be that impressive right now.

Yeah, it’s still early. I wish we had a class like GA’s already also, but we don’t. We do have Lampley and we know that lowe is going to get a ratings bump and will be highly rated TE (the websites themselves have said so). If we add Morris then I like those 3 guys. This new commit Cox is a true Nose, but it is strange that he doesn’t have a Bama or Auburn offer being in Bama. But he’s going to have to land some of the top guys like Wright if we are going to finish at the top like he said we would.

LOL. No doubt. In all seriousness, I wish Bray had had a better coach here. Talented guy who needed someone to help him learn and mature. I don't think he was ever the bad boy slacker that many portrayed hum as just a guy who was immature for his age and who had idiots in charge of him.

Had the same thoughts. Still in the NFL so he has something.

I was thinking maybe I should try to start a click bait site like so many other parasites around the game of football but I'd probably be too hardcore. :)

Why would you go to a bottom dweller and get paid when you can go to a good team and get paid?

The money excuse is just that, an excuse. Maybe it makes some people feel better when we get beat out for recruits or something.
