Holy close up Batman! Almost looks like that cenote in Beliz at first glance.

If I’m JJ I’m hitting the speed drills like crazy these next 8 months. Speed is his only weakness imo

Hank is one of my favorite posters on here, but his batting average has dipped quite a bit in the last few months. Keep swinging though Hank. Shooters are going to shoot.

Is Calloway coming back also?

I love this class!

 

[millst987]

Is Calloway coming back also?

Yep, I think he can increase his draft grade significantly by staying

Anyone think they'll be just as hard as the in-season workouts?

 

[drvenner]

He’s only played in 4 out of 17 games.

Now it’s BOV so, per usual, guy has no idea what he’s talking about

I think he intentionally puts out misinformation. He is likely doing undercover PSYOPS for Florida, Georgia, and /or Alabama.

I would break the bank. Having three programs winning at a high rate is a win win for the university. They did just make an OC the highest paid in the country, why can’t they pay a women’s basketball coach.

I suspect they think that anyone can recruit to Tennessee so they'll look for a coach that appears to be a good X's and O's coach at a smaller program. Probably end up paying just shy of a $1mil. If it doesn't work out do it again in 3-4 years. They seem to think that is a winning formula. Meanwhile we get further and further away from being what Pat had it built to and we'll become another LA Tech or Old Dominion. Remember when La Tech and Old Dominion were power house women's programs? Most don't. Who knows though? They might catch lightening in a bottle. The longer it goes though, the less desirable the job becomes.

 

[drvenner]

What are our chances with Pickens?

I just haven't followed the individual threads closely this cycle

Also doesn't hurt he is the strongest coming in. So I heard.

Rivals rankings update is this week. They released a Top 10 video reveal and guess what? Wright is no longer in the top 10 and isn't the #1 OL anymore. But George Pickens did jump into the Top 10 at #7 overall.

Top 100 released tomorrow. 250 Wednesday and position rankings Thursday.

Hubbs needs to get in their ****. He probably loses a few subscribers every time they do this BS.

 

[jpope9]

I thought kyle was graduating.... I'm confused.

Senior bowl perhaps....

 

[drvenner]

Awesome hire for them

That's a worse job that he left here besides the Butch Jones factor.

East vs West shrine bowl

VolQuest doesn’t have anything to do with the rankings.

Sooo.. my 75 year old grandpa got his mri back today after 5 chemo treatments. Tumor crossed both sides of brain. Completely gone on one side and other side has shrunk. Will do radiation for now and possibly stem cell later. Dr said his body couldn't take any more chemo right now. Prayers appreciated !

Prayers for sure!

This is where having a women's AD was useful. We have a big enough reach to where it shouldn't be difficult at all for us to identify the best coaches/candidates and women's bball is so peppered with Pat's and the LV's influence that damn near all of them are going to have some sort of connection to us. If anything, we may have an overwhelming number of choices. Outside of Geno, I don't think there's a coach of the women's game out there that wouldn't jump at the chance to come to UT. We do have to pay them what they're worth tho.
