Harris could Blueshirt or Greyshirt or whatever? He may also be willing to PWO since his grade worries have put him in a terrible spot to find a new home over summer if UT doesn't have him a spot.

Pretty sure Harris intended to blueshirt. So he'd count against the 2020 class, but he'd still be part of the 85. So 1 more guy from that 85 will have to bounce before he can come in for the fall (sounds like George is likely gone).

He already is blue shirting. Grey shirt and pwo aren't options. If he doesn't have the grades in June he will be cut loose and go juco and we lose nothing. If he does then he will enroll, we will drop someone else and he will be put on scholarship this fall.

On Tennessee’s tradition …
“It’s interesting. The other day, I was at the golf course, and one of the pastors there in town introduced himself to me. And he told me, ‘Twenty years ago, I came here to interview for a job.’ He goes, ‘They picked me up at the airport, and they took me to Neyland Stadium.’ He goes, ‘I looked at them and said, “I thought I was here on a job interview.”’ (They) said, ‘You are.’”

And there's the 1st step.


On how Tennessee’s talent compares to past big-time programs he coached at …
“I think we have a lot of really good players on our football team. I think some of the guys were younger. I think our strength and conditioning staff has done a really good job with our nutrition staff, getting them bigger and stronger. We look different. There’s several offensive linemen that’s gained 40 pounds in the last year. You’re talking about a guy who goes from 270 to 310, now he’s ready to play in this league. "

"You can see it with our team, and we’ve got to do a good in recruiting and evaluating and getting the right guys in there. And I think we’ve done that. We’ve got to continue to do that.”

Wouldn't count against the 85 UNTIL he was on scholarship, thought a blueshirt meant he wouldn't be on scholarship this year?

i think that's as close as you're every going to get to pruitt saying what he really thinks about the shape of this roster when he got here. that's very telling.

really, really hope it pays some dividends this fall.

Sir, I'm admittedly filled with blind optimism, all I read was

"We filled them boys with antler spray and cornbread, when shoved, they're finally ready to shove back. 9-3"

Great news! It's Camp Time in Tennessee. Summer camps start tomorrow and continue the next four weekends. Since camp is such a live topic and all. :)

I’m so glad Pruitt is emphasizing camps. Obviously he learned from the best (Saban) and all competent coaches lean heavily on camps. Pruitt thrives on evaluations made during these ala Deandre Baker

I've been trying to limit my carbs to 20/day. I don't get hungry because I can eat a bunch of meat. I need to add the exercise in too. I think it would come off a lot faster. I am going to the beach Saturday week so I'm sure I'll put myself in peril that week. I'll try and exercise on vacation though.
