I read Freak’s instructions on how to sign up for text alerts and I don’t know I can commit to that many steps. It’s 2018 and I’m thinking that’s too involved. I’m sure to lose interest.

What are some of your most memorable night before signing day stories?

The Lamar Dawson saga was one. I believe someone said just wait till everyone hears what Coach O did. I thought Vol Nation might melt down. Bad but memorable.

I don't remember the recruit because my memory sucks but we had some FSU trolls posing as insiders that had a ton of people bought into someone signing.

Which was the recruit where posters were played by FSU trolls? Big Fish and what not epicness. Also the kid (DB maybe) that flipped to KY last minute was epic also.

If it's not obvious I'm bad with names. I have no idea how some of you keep up with all these guys some of whom we aren't even that close on.

Let's assume Fitz leaves...

I ask, what does it take, what is needed, and what makes someone a good, no great, strength and conditioning coach?

Do they have to have proven themselves in college football, NFL, or a combination thereof? What if it was from a different perspective? Maybe competing in a different sport? What if he has a special designation that few have and he stands above the rest in his field? Basically, what if he was known as the first person to be designated the "Fittest Man on Earth", 4 times? Obviously, from a conditioning, nutritional, and overall work ethic and training standpoint, this individual knows what it takes. Does this mean that he could translate his success to an entire football team, not sure. But someone with his resume and knowledge, could be a huge boost to the program. I do not know this individual personally, so cannot speak from his standpoint or career aspirations, but based on his accomplishments alone, and the fact he resides just down the road, about 100 miles west of Knoxville...it might warrant a call from Pruitt...if Fitz leaves.

Crazy idea...off the wall, out of the box type thinking...but my main point to all of this is that there are always options!

The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency has confirmed a photo taken on Sept. 20 legitimately depicts a cougar roaming an area he likes to hunt in south Obion County and the town of Mason Hall.

theyve admitted that since mid 2000's. NE TN - Wash and Unicoi. I've yet to see. But, they're moving this way due to scarcity of food.

TN has alligators too.

I started this little athletic design thing in March and last week, I was interviewed by the Washington Post about freelance design in recruiting. I know that makes me "fake news" to a lot of you, but its still pretty freakin' cool.

For the latest in signing day announcements, you’ll need a graphic designer

You are my favorite "fake news" guy!
Seriously man, that is overwhelming! Very excited for you bro man! May the Lord continue to bless your abilities!
