Bailey is a BEAST

[dduncan4163]

On and off the field. The kid has been one of our best recruiters. He's bringing half of Marietta High with him. The future is Big Orange Nation.

After landing Ojulari, Bailey turns focus to five-star Gilbert



“The brotherhood and friendship with BJ, that I’ve built with him, is outrageous.”

And now, after Friday afternoon’s announcement at Marietta High School, that brotherhood and friendship will continue at the next level.

Ojulari, a four-star weakside defensive end, joined Bailey in Tennessee’s 2020 class of commitment, picking the Vols over LSU, Auburn and a host of others.

Once Ojulari set a date for his ceremony, Bailey knew it was time to shift into another gear with his Tennessee sales pitch.

“Man, ever since he announced his commitment date and even before that,” Bailey said.



After Ojulari joined the party, the focus now turns to 2020 five-star athlete Arik Gilbert, the No. 10 overall player in the class according to the 247Sports Composite.

Bailey is in his ear constantly, asking him the same question he was asking Ojulari.

“What are you trying to do?” Bailey said. “We say that to him everyday.”

Gilbert has Tennessee among his favorites, alongside the likes of Alabama, Georgia and Clemson.

“He’s just ready to get it done,” Bailey said. “Can’t speak too soon. He keeps it close. But we’re all really close. Me, BJ and Arik. We all talk about stuff like this.”

Now when they talk, Bailey is planning the rooming assignments at Tennessee.

“We have a couple more we have to get in the boat,” he said, “then my roommates will be set soon.”

We've got some great momentum on the trail right now, if we can couple it with better than expected results on the field we might finally have this train rolling again boys.

[De La Cloobs]

I can’t imagine many that are on the team now wouldn’t do the same things if they had personal accessibility to our targets.

 

[Illinoisvolfan2]

It’s going to be fun seeing what he (and Ojulari) do this season. I assume they start next week??

 

[photovol]

I hate the word "If", don't you?

 

[photovol]

Come on DD act like your having fun, smile

Once he gets here and throws a pick many of you will forget about his recruiting efforts and call for his head

That's the CFB circle of life though, the best players are always the freshmen who have never played, because they are a blank canvas upon which the fan may paint his hopes and dreams for that player. As soon as we realize the player will not achieve such dreams or as soon as they display that they are mere mortals after all, it's on to the next dream player. All fanbase's do it. Every so often, against all odds, you get a Peyton Manning though, and that keeps us coming back for years.

In before, "If we had elite recruiters on our staff, then we wouldn't be resorting to having 17yos, do the job".

 

[OrangeByBirth]

Bailey wants to win. That is the first step in becoming a winner. Yeeeeeehaw!

GO BIG ORANGE!

FYI - Locals know that Marietta is properly pronounced "May Retta"

And Mayretta's only other claim to fame is the Big Chicken.

 

[savannahfan]

Kinda of reminds me of "brothers-best buddies" going off to the military during wartime. Hardly ever works out like they expect. The military understands, they hardly ever allow these relationships to go to "war".

And Life Chiropractic School.
It’s called Life because if you use one of their chiropractors, you’ll have back pain for life.

Even in 1994, there was a vocal minority calling for Brandon Stewart to play over Manning. One of the reasons we're the 4th most annoying fanbase. Vocal, yes? Smart? Not so much.

I remember that. And Stewart DID play well at times. Obviously the right call was made though.

In the early nineties when the Atlanta Braves went from worst to first, Life college had bought a boatload of cheap commercial time from TBS right when the team took off. Wisest, or rather, luckiest marketing coup in Atlanta history!

Well, Stewart used his legs more to get out of trouble. As is documented, when Peyton threw 40 yards across the field against Mississippi State in what would have been a pick six if any other qb on our team had thrown it, everyone, including Brandon Stewart's mother, should have recognized what a special talent Peyton Manning was. But they didn't. They whined and cried the whole rest of the season about Fulmer playing Archie's boy ahead of the duel threat kid from Texas.

It really is hard to feel sorry for us sometimes. Some of our fans deserve what they've gotten the last 10 years.
