Hmm, maybe do some research into him. Had scholarships to MIT and Purdue for engineering. Went to Iowa for biomedical engineering but dropped out to go to Hollywood. Has investments into over 60 companies and founded numerous organizations. IQ of 160.

Yup, don't care for him as an actor, but pretty smart guy, seems to give back quite a bit, and works on the issue of human trafficking. Also gave a pretty dang good speech as far as Teen Choice Award speeches go

Google school principle that stole this speech for hs graduation. It was one of our local high schools here! Hilarious. Jimmy Fallon did a skit comparison on it.

His creation of Thorn cannot be spoken of enough. It has helped law enforcement agencies and NGOs across the world identify and combat sexual exploitation online. His speech before congress was incredibly impressive.

OK, OK! I throw myself at the mercy of the Defenders of Ashton Kutcher Alliance. I guess he's just REALLY good at portraying characters with imbecilic qualities.

PFF can't even get NFL player grades right while studying film religiously, which is their primary line of business. It's sad really.

Sometimes common sense ought to be used by all these "experts". Tennessee was 8-5 and 5-3 in the SEC. They lost two games to far inferior opponents early. So it was 8-10 win team, above mid-tier in the SEC. Next, how many guys on each side of the line are returning for next season? We know it is 8 for a D that ranked #23 and 8 starters back on an O that was ranked #100. Kicker and punter return. Next what was the most recent class of signees ranked? Yep - top 15 somewhere. So good talent coming in to create even more depth along with a potential starter or two. Add in the return of a planned, proven starter last season in Gooden.

We know both O and D trended improvement from the previous season and that the schedule was difficult as it is next season. It would be logical to expect that they will trend improvement again given the number of returning starters and stability of key coaching staff. So what range of ranking should a 9+ win team have? Obvious conclusion - better than UK or Indiana who they show in the top 25.

65. NIGEL WARRIOR, S, TENNESSEE
Warrior was a stalwart in coverage just as he was a true run-stuffer from the safety position. He was targeted 28 times, gave up just 14 catches for 180 yards and made four picks with another eight pass breakups to his credit. In total, he allowed a passer rating of just 54.8 in his coverage and was terrific against the run. Warrior made 18 total defensive stops and was the only Power-5 safety to finish the year with an elite grade against the run, in coverage and in tackling; he missed just three of the 67 attempts he tried this year, and he was every bit the dominant safety on the backend for the Volunteers in 2019.

69. JAUAN JENNINGS, WR, TENNESSEE
No receiver broke more tackles after the catch than Jennings in 2019, as the Tennessee receiver broke 30 tackles on just 59 receptions. He turned those 59 receptions into 969 yards and eight touchdowns, 34 first downs and another 474 yards after the catch. Nearly half of his yards came after the catch on every reception, as he saw a total average of 16.4 yards per catch but gained 8.0 of those after hauling in the pass. These kinds of figures not only put him in the conversation as best tackle-breaking receiver this season but also of the past decade, as he broke the PFF record by breaking a tackle on 50.8% of his catches.

It's Ashton Kutcher playing a washed up QB that returns to his family ranch. He's dumb as a brick. Instead of saying, "a vicious cycle" he says, "a fish's cycle" and after they try to correct him his explanation is what McGill said.

Yeah never see me watching a multi cam sitcom with a laugh track.
