That’s a good deal imo man. I paid $100 for nose bleeds for game 3 of blackhawks last year and thought it was a steal. What a helluva game that was

I’ll be more willing to pay it for game 2 after I get paid tomorrow. I definitely need to go to one this year.

I was displeased with the changes made with Taylor and Emerson. I am going to recant and apologize for saying it was a panic move with Taylor. Spoke with a trusted football guy today that has seen Taylor many times and he said he can be an elite CB.

Now with that said i am still pissed about Emerson. Please get his ass back to defense so he can develop into a stud DLman.

Taylor reminds me so much of Adoree’ Jackson it’s not funny. He could contribute to both sides of the ball as a Freshman.

Matches what I was told. Special with the ball in his hands, great on kickoffs (no punts-can't catch) and would be great in the wildcat if we want to keep that option open

Got this from an Auburn board-

courtesy of E, here's summary of what Chad Simmons posted yesterday on top 30 players in GA


WR Jadon Haselwood --> UGA but don't sleep on AU

OT Wanya Morris - UT lean but AU has made it VERY interesting

LB Owen Pappoe - AU has the edge & has had it for a little while but UGA still a threat

CB Andrew Booth - CLEM lean but AU team to watch

CB Jalen Perry - UGA but looking around more (AU has communicated with him in the past FWIW)

DL Justin Eboigbe - AU/UGA battle

ATH Jashawn Sheffield - big lead for AU with TEN trying to get involved

OG Keiondre Jones - AU/UF/SCAR battle

WR Kenyon Jackson - A&M leads but AU team to watch

DT Jaelin Humphries - Interestingly does not have AU listed instead says UGA/LSU/TEN

WR Ramel Keyton - TEN leads with AU #2

ATH Derrian Brown - FSU/AU/VT battle

CB Warren Burrell - Lots of SEC schools & ND

ATH Jaylin Simpson - all AU

Pruitt told a recruit we wont be very good this year, but we will next year. Nothing we didn't know but I found that interesting. He's certainly more honest than Butch.

I just listened to this week’s audible podcast with Stewart Mandell and Bruce Feldman. Mandell visited Tennessee and watched a practice and visited coaches. When asked to essentially compare Tennessee to his other stops at Bama, Clemson and Georgia, he said Tennessee is a complete bottoms up rebuild and he wouldn’t be surprised at another 4-8 season. He said the cupboard is completely bare and implied the coaches have very low expectations.

Well he also was watching a practice without a few guys that would make it looks a little better.

Trey and hall getting healthy could really change the outlook of the OL. Also add in Juco Johnson and hopefully a Grad transfer OL pops up somewhere.

Kirkland wasn't there and Bituli Was non contact

Jennings on side.

Then add the guys coming in the fall. Going to look better than it did last wk.

Look, I’m an optimist and anyone who knows my posts would agree. We are not a deep team and that is a huge issue in this conference. If we are blessed with health we will win 7. If we have normal attrition we’ll win 4 or 5. Anything more than 5 we should know Pruitt is the answer. Otherwise, we’ll hope for the best.

I don't think it's that bad but I also don't think this roster is near as good as some on here think it is. This is most likely a six or seven win team. The growing pains with new schemes and a first time head coach, and first time coordinators, will make things challenging. A lot of people are overlooking that last part.

I'd have more of a problem with the moves if Butch Jones was head coach simply because it's clear that he was/is a dumb ass fool. Just about anything Pruitt does personnel wise I'm on board with, because he knows what it takes to win on an elite level.

This team isn't going 4-8. 6-8 win range. 4 wins is nonsense.
