No clue what you're talking about.
He definitely didn't "denigrate the kids" He said the system wasn't molded to fit their strengths.
And the comment from the coach was about 2018, the coach literally said
NM. I could go on but the only thing you said that was in the article was "nobody was complaining about recruiting", I agree with you there.
Everything else you added or changed, not sure why but no interest in trying to figure it out over a 10 page discussion either.
Many of those kids are still here. He argued they were only still playing (in 2018) because:
"Of course the 2018 Vols would have the bulk of their depth chart made up of Butch Jones recruits! He was a first-year head coach who had only been able to secure half a recruiting class for 2018."
Despicable by the author. Maybe those Vols are just talented?! The rest of his article was completely off base and had nothing to do with recruiting or the quote itself. But we shouldn't expect too much from an amateur blog haha. Not taking it too seriously. Just wish they'd support the kids, no matter who recruited them.
