i don't think top 10 is in the works this cycle. i think we can get really close if we get Wright and Pickens. we just don't have enough spots left i don't think to make up that much ground, and i'm not sure who else besides Wright nad Pickens and To'oto'o we're after that would be considered blue chip guys.I guess the big question is, just from a perception stand-point, is whether or not we finish with a top ten class?
Nate Peterman. Miracle actuallyLet's just keep hyping this up...Chaney is the best OC in the SEC and he's on the hill!
Here's the NFL guys that played under Chaney while he was here from 2009-2012. Considering how -bad- Dooley was at everything this list was larger than I expected...and I didn't include special teams or OL
RB
Montario Hardesty
Rajion Neal
Tauren Poole
WR/TE
Denarius Moore
Luke Stocker
Justin Hunter
Da'Rick Rogers
Mychal Rivera
Cordarrelle Patterson
QB
Tyler Bray
Boom britches.
He doesn't get the love but Chaney is sneaky good. We know that from his time here. For want of a Defense we could have won the east with what he put together here.
i'm not up on some of hte technical stuff you mention here lol.
but i do totally agree with you on the outside shooting. i think we've been good there, but we don't have that transition, spot up shooter than can get it up and out quick. all of our guys have to set up and shoot. that's not a bad thing. but it does require you to run your offense and create the look.
i watched May for UNC last night multiple times, take pass, spot, shoot...many times with a hand right in his face. but that's what we don't have right now. that's the kind of guy that could cause us problems, cause it doesn't matter sometimes how good you were on transition defense. he gets it, he shoots it, and he makes it.
i do think overall Bowden has gotten a lot better, and as little as two weeks ago i was questioning his value. but i've been really impressed with him, particularly in the last two games.

and i don't think we get all three of those guys...i'd be estatic if we got two. and i'm only expecting 1 of them.
yes, I believe we will get an OC this week.
Sorry my friend. I've been in South Florida since Saturday and have spent very little time on the boards. Playing a lot of golf. Return to Tennessee on Saturday.
Look for Tee to join staff fairly soon. Not sure we get things worked out on Pittman but certain Jim will try.
If/when Tee is hired, it’ll be the end of the curse. The clouds will be lifted and the sun will appear. All will be forgiven and the penance paid by the fans for the atrocities of the admins will be suffice. The winds of change will have shifted and they will be felt on every campus and they will carry with them a warning that the sleeping giant is awakening.
