I don’t read your posts, but 7k posts on a recruiting forum indicated quite clearly you concern yourself with whether we get recruits or not.

Otherwise you’re suggesting your life is so dull that you dedicate endless hours discussing things you couldn’t care less about. Weird flex but okay.

I'm just trying to get everything straight so excuse my bluntness.

Half of your posts are bragging about not reading other people's posts and that you "dgaf"..
The other half are complaining about the posts that you supposedly don't read and doing so in a very gaf fashion.

I'm fine with either but please pick one so I can follow the conversation.

Some of the regulars react strongly but are usually worth the drama.
There's a few others that you should. "Troll" gets over used but that doesn't mean there isn't any and I'm sure you noticed which ones. Gotta be around for good and bad to be believable, can't just appear you smell ****.

I think both of your concerns are true.

And I think his honesty in his message last year paid divideds.

TBD on this one... Sure hope so tho!!

Yup, I'm just glad he's going opposite of Butch after just 1 season. No more excuses, which he was entitled to taking over the worst team in UT history.

He's now building up big expectations for himself and with his own job on the line. He knows this more than anyone. Butch would still be busy reminding recruits he needs another 5 years.

I keep a chart in my back pocket like Butch Jones did with the media. Too many negative posts and you are on ignore. JK. LOL.

Solid questions. Hopefully this clears it up:

1. I don’t read most people’s posts. Not just here but on a few other forums I visit as well. More accurately, I’ll skim most threads. Easy to figure out quickly if a post is worth reading or contains any useful info.

2. I don’t pay attention to most usernames. Guys like RS, GV, Bass, BGS etc I’ve interacted with i do, but most just become recognizable avatars but I don’t really pay much attention to who’s take on what is or even typical posting style (alledged sunshine pumper vs “realist” etc).

3. If I get a notification that I’ve been quoted, I usually check those. I’ve noticed a handful of people that I never had any notable interaction with quoting me repeatedly. Sleego and a few others were on there. So I’ve since been paying attention.

4. This forum is a time waster for me. I use it as a source of entertainment - to get info, to share info, to shoot the chit, and to keep track of Vols recruiting etc. I use it within the confines of the rules Freak sets forth. Outside of that, I honestly am not at all concerned if random usernames that I wouldn’t be able to identify if they were standing next to me in an elevator “like me” or how I post. Im here for me, not them.

So if I’m frustrated with the state of things and I express that, I’m gonna do that. Chastising me because im not sunshiny enough is comical to me.

I overly use the ignore feature. Mostly for posters I find obnoxious or obvious trolls. I haven’t used it on anyone calling me out lately because, well, as my ex wife knows, I don’t mind arguing. But If my posting style is so upsetting to some of you, by all means add me to yours.

Otherwise get over it.

Hope that makes sense.

There is no way you actually believe that. There are maybe 20-25 Power 5 WRs a cycle that truly contribute year 1. Of the top 25 composite receivers, FOURTEEN are already committed. And a few more are scheduled to commit in the coming weeks.
