I don't really think we can make deaths something that are comparable. However if you are considering the numbers there is 50% more suicides in America than homicides and social media has certainly pushed more than 20 kids over the edge a lot more. It's people's choice what they want to do but there is certainly danger there that people seem to overlook.

I think the only reason we know about Sewell and Smalls is because the National Recruiting guys know to follow Neids around everywhere he goes. I don't think we are in trouble recruiting wise, and I do think we get a few of those big names, and maybe more if we win. I just remember it's been leaked that Pruitt said earlier this year that we would have the #1 class if everyone committed to a recruit. The flow of information isn't supporting that statement, and we know this is staff has some big time national recruiters on it. Tee has been missing though, and Ansley hasn't made a difference yet.

I think this is spot on.

Social Media and Suicide: A Public Health Perspective

Teen suicide rate has doubled in the last decade after declining for the previous 20 years. Seems like more than just coincidence.

I'm not saying that social media is 100% negative, just a net negative imo.

teens and 6 and 7 year olds are different. Especially 6 and 7 year olds being murdered, but carry on with your hot takes.

Is 6 and 7 year old dying worse than teens dying? I'm confused by your opinion. You were the one that specified 6 and 7 year olds. As if that's worse than the teen suicide rate literally doubling in 10 years with a lot of evidence suggesting that that is directly related to social media.

I'm not trying to give a hot take, I just genuinely believe that social media is a net negative and has many, detrimental impacts. This being one of them.

Those are the services and costs that are discussed. One of the biggest things I think was the paid version of hudl provides full game film with all 11 and all 22 camera angles so coaches aren't just watching hudl highlights to make decisions. Article goes way more in depth with all they provide though. Really interesting stuff. You can probably Google the company names if you don't have a subscription though. Also, apparently chaney, conservatively, spends 16 hours a day watching game film. Hahaha

I had to google this and apparently she was legit selling bottles of bath water for $42 each. Sweet mother of mercy.

Bet you are glad you did that lol

Also, apparently someone tested the bath water and it had zero traces of human DNA in it. She legit just filled a bunch of cups with tap water and sold them to a bunch of neckbeards.

Not that this pertains to Tennessee but at least there is some movement in the NCAA transfer department. Unfortunatley for this kid moving from Texas A&M to Troy was not approved. The biggest take away i took from this was this quote: "The NCAA recently denied Strong’s waiver request, sending the message that mostly high-profile quarterbacks at major programs deserve waivers. Players moving from the Power 5 to Group of 5 programs don’t seem to be getting that same luxury this offseason".

a 6 or 7 year old being murdered is worse than a teen committing suicide. Both are tragic, though.
