Carlin has put on some muscle

I remember Carlin got hurt maybe in the spring, do you know if he will be available in the fall? I like his potential there back at RB

BAH GOD - somebody forward this Athletic article on JG and Manning to King and every top 2021+ QB recruit in the country. If that doesn't get you excited to come play at UT, I don't know what will.

Honestly I’d take The Sanders kid for QB in 2021 that kid can sling it.

Jerrod Means is a big kid for as fast as he is supposed to be..... Fitz’s program is definitely working on that kid and Roman Harrison is just a monster period....

Nieds got a raise per Hubbs...

Hey Needlemeyer! Catch!

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Still underpaid in my opinion

Since we missed on King, does JP let one loose tonight?

Fall camp 2017 and just for the record I would have said the same thing. I think that's the way it works when you are part of a team. jmo.

And PM went to bat for Schiano, but I can forgive him.

Before anyone has a fit they can read about it in the reVOLution book:

Charles Barkley is very selective when he goes back to his alma mater for games. Whether it's football or basketball, Barkley doesn't like to watch Auburn lose. According to the former NBA star, Auburn is great place to be when the Tigers win but the campus is like a funeral when they lose. For that reason alone, he only attends sure-fire victories. Which game did the TNT studio basketball analyst pick to attend during last year's football season? Tennessee.

"I penciled in Tennessee on my schedule because I was like 'Tennessee's lost 20-something SEC games in a row" so I decided to take some of my boys with me and I told them that we were going to have a good weekend," Barkley said during an appearance Tuesday night at the Boys & Girls Club's 32nd annual Stake & Burger event at Middle Tennessee State. The Vols upset the Tigers 30-24 behind a 328-yard, two touchdown performance from quarterback Jarrett Guarantano.

"Midway through the game one of my friends turns to me and goes 'y'all are really going to lose to Tennessee' and I told him no because Auburn isn't that bad," Barkley said. "Then they went on to beat us and all I could say was 'damn!'.

There was truth in the Haney article and a **** ton of opinion and unnamed sources. So much of a hit piece, the accuracy became irrelevant.

Even worse, he was writing things that would drive recruits away in droves while working for a company that covered recruiting.
Dumbass deserved to be fired.

Nah, it’s not his job to sit on stuff just because it would hurt Tennessee’s recruiting. He had legitimate stories and sources.

Either way, that’s over with and we’ve thankfully got through the worst of it.

blehhh that really sucks about King. Now I must put all my hopes into Jimbo bailing out of nowhere.

Edit: NM just saw where you posted it in the Haynes King thread, yes we are on the same page.

Maybe we can get him to come to the Bama game.

He will get it. They are still trying to quell the costs of the Jones crap.

Skip Bayless has a net positive approval rating?

SEC media days has me craving football.

I'm so ready to hear about this year's team! I wished practice started tomorrow.

 

[bcmbvol]

Wonder how much our defense will be improved. He improved us like 40 spots in his first year with 2 freshmen corners. I think we see a massive improvement on defense. Even if the DL isn’t where we want it, there’s talent there, especially if Solomon is approved. Gonna be interesting to see

Slowing the game down on offense really helped. Something I was think about today was how much return the players get from their S&C work. With fewer plays on defense, I think we get better effort/play. I guess I’m hoping to see some real improvement in year two late in games. That, and more takeaways.

Those pics in uniforms has got to me! Especially seeing Trey!

Ubben isn't one to sugarcoat things, and sometimes leans a little pessimistic at times. That comment caught my eye.

Ubben was the wet blanket to my Vol optimism last season. Years groomed watching bad Big 12 teams. Comes to Tennessee, sees us up close, and basically says we are worse. Then we go and lose 6 games by 26+ points.... he’s still not overly optimistic this year, I don’t think.
