Are there more transfers or are we just hearing about it due to the portal?

And if you enter the portal can you still return to your team? It’s just a way of saying I want to be contacted by other schools?

next time you decide to take a social stance, or about a controversial subject....

make sure and share it on football message board. so we can converse about it.

yes it was emotionally charged. not sure what you expected when opining on baby boomers.

typical millenial response. spew ********, for emotional response. wait for said response, then hide behind 'reason and logic'.

and yes, i stand behind 20 hours a week as a stereotype. it was a humorous slant on things, during my rant...but...

ive work with and managed millenials. so, ive witnessed that 'work ethic' first hand.

anything else?

The only one spewing anything is you sir. You and your emotions. You do realize that you just exemplified entitled and emotional in every one of your responses right?

Like I previously said I'm not a baby boomer or a millennial. There are good and bad in all generations, period.

Just ftr, these 18-22-year-old college students are in Generation Z. They're not Millenials.

There’s always a bit of a grey are between generations. Some who consider themselves generation x would be classed with millennials by others. You can’t really set a hard cap on when a generation begins and ends.

Not overall. Everyone has outliers but our fan base compared to UF is not even close. Other fan bases speak well of our hospitality. You are just wrong on this one.

Was in Neyland in '99 for Notre Dame, and sit right next to some Irish fans (husband and wife). They told us they had traveled, for years, all over for games, including the Big House; they said their experience in Knoxville and Neyland was, "by far", the best they ever had at an opposing team's home. I'll never forget that.

Y'all go on. I'm just hanging around to get the coaching through-lines and to see whether we close out our recruiting well. But sure I'll jump at the bright shiny post from time to time.

I'm stuck in between millennial and baby boomers I guess. That being said the baby boomers seem to be the light hearted ones. Grew up in an easier time, less competition. Entitled to something because their parents were the greatest generation. But yet they expect respect for nothing.

Expect a blue ribbon cause they grew up, bought a house and kept a job. When in reality all they did was get a life.

The generation issue is comical to me. There's good and bad in all.

Guess who raised the millennials? We're all about accountability here for the coaches and all.

Where did this fiction come from? My parents were dirt poor, so I worked summer jobs in Tennessee to earn enough money to pay my way through college. Got a degree and made good money as an engineer for 30 years. Took that money & bought a farm & worked my butt off for ten more years, then retired at age 60.

My parents were the greatest generation?? Based on what? Fighting in World War I & II maybe? Where did this come from?

I'm not sure how old you are, but does your generation have the same work ethic? I try not to be judgmental, so I'll leave it to you to decide.

I'm in that gray area. I like to yell at kids to get off my lawn but I can also use a computer pretty good. I don't have Twitter or Instagram or any of that but I am on Facebook, which I think makes me about 54 years old in social media years.
