Does it have the preheated water? I read a comparison article that claimed it was a little after than the Keurig at 39 seconds.

No. That’s why it takes longer. Nothing deal breaking. Not sure about other models being available.

The one is was interested in will have an option to have the water hot all the time, have it hot during parts of the day you specify, or heat on demand. I think the model was SS-10.

Get an espresso machine. No matter which one you get there will be a learning curve, but it’s worth it. If you want a normal size cup just add hot water. I’ve got a D’Longhi Dedica. Definitely an entry level machine, but it makes a great espresso once you nail down how to use it.

The reason I say it is because if he goes 5-7 or even 6-6 I don’t see him ever being elite here. He’s gonna have to show he can make up some of that talent and “over achieve”, I don’t see UT being consistent top 3 in talent within the next couple years. He’ll have to show he’s great before we truly have elite(top 3) recruiting classes imo

This is assuming the previous coach brought in meh to decent SEC talent. Butch Jones didn’t come close to that in his last two years. Hell maybe three. That 2015 class looks like trash in hindsight. None of our players went to the combine this year and the pro day will be sad.

Pruitt is going to have to build this thing from the ground up. SEC is a big boy league won in the trenches. We’re replacing our entire front on defense and may have 2 true freshman start on offense. This rebuild is going to take time. I’m confident Pruitt can and will be the one to get us there though because his message to recruits and coaches seems to resonate so well. We have an excellent group of coaches and brought in what looks like a really solid class.

In 2015 as the losses begin to mount a vocal minority checked out on the prior coaching regime. Then came the sluggish start to 2016 and while the A&M loss was forgiven by many, the losses at South Carolina and at Vanderbilt were not. The writing was on the wall at that point. The regime had been exposed.

In 2017 after the worst loss (to Georgia) at Neyland since Christopher Columbus walked on the moon the clock was ticking and midnight couldn’t get here fast enough. Everybody, the coaches, the players, the media, the fans, everybody checked out and moved on. The Gruden threads came back to life and we and our players were made to endure the spectacle of the worst season in the history of Tennessee football.

What then ensued was the rebellion of the ages. Volunteers world-wide stuck their heads out their windows and shouted for all to hear, "We’re pissed off and we’re not going to take it anymore.” So loud it was that NASA capture the sound on the recording instruments of the Voyager 1 spacecraft some 135 astronomical units distant from earth.

The Athletic Director was fired and eventually the Chancellor as well. A native son was brought back aboard to right the ship. A new regime was hired. Time to start over. The first orders of business was to build a formidable staff, get some fresh talent, and develop some experience on our roster. Now, all across the Volunteer landscape (which stretches well beyond our star system) when our fans pass by rival fans in the course of our daily events, the only thing we have to say is, “We’re coming for you!”

Having the most returning starters in the SEC, and showing no improvement is a sign of lack of development. Raw talent isnt close to the only thing that gets wins

Yes, and supposed to be worse here in middle Tennessee tomorrow where I live. The roads are cracking going down two different sides of the mountain, and I imagine trees will be falling tomorrow after all the rain with the wind.

"I want to improve my vision, balance and speed," Chandler said. "I want to develop my body more. I want to go out there and take my game to the next level. Like I said, I want to get better every day when we go out there. I have other great competitors in the room who are all going to pick my brain and we are going to keep pushing each other to get better."

This gets me pumped. Ty is going to carve up the SEC this season running to the right behind Darnell. These boys are motivated..

On a side note look how huge Trey Smith is.

Easily a first round pick if it wasn't for his unfortunate situation.
