He never said but if it was a (Highly) rated recruit that came in under that radar then he will be the only one able to tell you and even given that,he will pay you in “Hints” so good luck😭😂 but I’m curious myself so.

Yeah, did not think there were any more hints, or at least I had not seen them. So, let the speculations begin!🤔

Our team found its identity tonight. Even Cimaglia had fire in his eyes. We looked like a top 10 team tonight. I was watching while at work, but every time I looked at the TV it seemed to be a great play. Rewatching now.

Cimaglia always had fire in his eyes. He’s special teams JJ.

Thanks, Charger! Found a 95% blockage and put in a stent.

You'll be OK then. I had an MI last month and had 3 stents installed in one of my coronary arteries. Was kinda weak for ten days or so, but now a month later I'm back to normal. The doctors say that exercise helps heal the heart tissue. Good luck and hope you have a quick recovery!

Please sweet baby Jesus just bring me one of UK or Mizzou and get us to a bowl. Would be a gotdang miracle after the way we started. Most of us would have laughed at the prospect after the first couple games and yet here we are!

I can’t wait to see the replay of yesterday. We have had no power since yesterday at 2:30pm CT. Those storms (possibly a tornado?) were no joke.

You must be near me cause storms knocked my power out too. Luckily we suffered no damage but it definitely could’ve been worse

May have been posted but whatever. SEALS just killers Baghdadi. Guy founded isis, too extreme for al Qaeda. This is almost as big of a win in the war on terror as killing bin Laden

Please stop creating evil organizations to do bad things and just be nice to people.

Sincerely,

People

Some thoughts from Neyland Stadium:

1. Woooooweeee what an energetic crowd. The fans brought a ton noise and energy yesterday. Haven’t heard it that loud in quite a while. Also never seen the fans so tuned in to the officials — there were a couple minutes there where I thought the situation could have turned ugly, but thankfully it didn’t. We have amazing fans, they have a decade worth of bottled up energy - yesterday we saw a release of some of it and it felt (and sounded) great.

2. Like the way Pruitt handled the QB situation. Spared JG any negativity with starting, but knew that he’d need JG to win the game. For an inexperienced head coach, he handled that situation with perfection.

3. Our offensive line, even though it got banged up last night, played great ball. They hardly touched our QBs. They got some push. And against an elite defensive line.

4. Jim Chaney has his best night of the season. Play calling was fantastic. A+

5. Beamerball errrr Pruittball!?!? Press the kicking game! Score!

6. Our WR corps is elite. Keep feeding them the rock baby!

7. Concerned about banged up players: D Wright, D Taylor, hope they’re okay. Hope JG can play. Did Jordan get banged up? Didn’t see him much in the second half.

8. Halftime adjustments were awesome on defense. Shutting them out in the second half was huge.

9. This team has a ton of momentum right now. Gotta stay up for a tough game against UAB next week.

My post game randoms...

  • First things first... I have to say hats off to Jarrett Guarantano. I can't figure the guy out honestly. He played one hell of a game. I don't know what it means and I have zero confidence he can carry it from week to week, but for one night - in a game I specifically desperately wanted to win (work with a lot of uscjr fans so my hatred for that team is amplified), he gave his ALL for Tennessee. Big props to that stadium for not booing him when he came into the game. Honestly that would've been embarrassing and a terrible look.
  • I tweeted a video clip of it and posted it in the game thread, but that 3rd and 14 touchdown to Jennings was epic. The refs were trying soooooooo to f us, but that play put us in the lead for good. Inject that into my veins.
  • Jauan MOTHERF'N Jennings. I have no words that would adequately describe this kids heart and what he means to the team. I love my Vols and theres a lot of players I hold in especially high esteem, but Jennings is definitely on the Mount Rushmore of Vol legends IMO. Its an injustice and strangely, a blessing for us fans, that he's been a part of this era of Vols football. He deserves so much better, but at the same time he's been one of the few bright spots in recent years and has given us so many iconic memories.
  • JT Shrout ...... what can I say. Chaney can work with QB's. We might have something there. I feel good about our QB room all of a sudden. What a difference a week makes.
  • Our upper classmen have been much maligned, and I know we're all excited for when Pruitt has 4 recruiting classes in Knoxville.... but damn the seniors carried the night. Jennings, Calloway, Kennedy, Taylor, Bitulli, .... hell I feel like I'm forgetting some. Many juniors balled out as well. Legit could have 4-5 guys drafted. (Bitulli, Jennings, Calloway, Taylor, someone else)
  • Speaking of juniors - Kivon Bennet is quietly carving himself out a role on this team, and playing pretty damned good. We know he has the pedigree. Now it looks like its being married with elite coaching, and he's starting to develop.
  • I don't have many complaints from our coaching staff last night, as I think that was their best game - and they humiliated uscjr's staff.... BUT I really hope we shelve the third and long defense where we have like 4 down lineman and line 5 db's at the line to gain. It's failed miserably both times its been used - once on a draw once on a bubble screen.
  • Shows how intelligent I am.... I thought the key to winning this game would be like the Missippissi State game.... run run run, quick passes only when necessary. But we threw it all over the field. muschamp usually has strong secondaries. I don't know if they had a lot of injuries, but we had our way with them. Should've stuck with Tennessee, Jaycee.
  • Anyone see that big **** eating grin on fat ass mushchumps face after that opening touchdown? God I hate that man. So glad his squad got its ass kicked.
  • Is Darrel Middleton becoming a defensive lineman right before our eyes?
  • Really couldn't have expected a better environment or end result if you were hosting a lot of recruits. Hope we reap the benefits.
  • Guys.... our Vols are going to be good again - FINALLY!!!!

That officiating crew must be fired.

It wasn’t just bad against us. They didn’t called the worst most obvious holding I have ever seen on 58 and there was also a second down pass on the first play of the 4th quarter that they spotted us a full 2 yards too far and gave us a first down

I’ve never see such an awful game on both sides

The two side judges were terrible. Had no clue on the TD calls for USC.
