English going to be our next coach. He kills it in recruiting

Maybe, but not before he goes home to Mizzou, first, imo

 

[BubbaWms]

I suppose any % is better than none but our 25% beats them pansy ass bammers by 5% who only allow 20%. A win is a win in these times IMHO.

What books? I have only seen 2, both online. BetOnline has us at 5.5 and Bovada at 5 as of right now.

Arky and Vandy are both at 1.5

Earlier Bovada was at 4

We talking Publix hot subs?

I just now saw that..lol..that's what happens when you get in a hurry..

 

[SweetasSoda]

Listening to Pruitt's interview. He cracks me up. It's like he's coaching some of them to ask better questions.

I think he is. He did teach Kindergarteners.

Great thought. I never considered this.

I thought someone mentioned this before when we first started talking about how many fans. I remember thinking it might be better for him to not have to worry about boos versus applause. I may have dreamed all of that lol.

It’s hard to not feel like they badly want a lot of the players to test positive (or actually get the disease). I prefer not to judge, but Dan Wolken is a despicable person.

7-3/8-2...ain't scared. JG gonna finally do something good, by simply not being awful.

the OL and the run game will drive the bus this year.

the defense will be stout...DL and back end are in good shape, and LB outside of HT has a ton of potential. only potential pitfall i see is depth on the DL....it's not quite where we'd like it yet....

kicking game should be in good hands.. and i think we injected some speed in the return game with some of the young guys...

last is WR....so much potential, just not proven. they have, as a group, a realtively big hill to climb.....but i think we have the right coaches and OC in place to get it out of them.

the biggest weakness on this team, imo, is TE with Pope going down.....i think we're definitley good enough to beat 7 of the teams on our schedule. compete adequately with 2 and be 50/50 with the last one.

turnovers for/against will be big....and can we possess the ball....

i like the schedule. can't wait.

Lot of good stuff ceptin the DL depth point. Dude? We’re basically 4 deep this season. Next season requires some restocking but we’re currently not glimpsing any pain.

The GRT Expected Win Total Machine: 2020 Preseason | Gameday on Rocky Top

This is pretty cool. You put in our % chance to win each game (in your opinion) and it gives you a win total.

These were my results. 6.01 wins

Eric Gray weighs in on Day 1 of fall camp

The sophomore running back, from in front of his locker after Monday's practice, gave his impression of the first day of camp after and his feedback on the face shields that some Vols are wearing on their helmets.

“Practice went well today,” Gray said on Instagram. “The helmets, uh, it was kind of hot out there in them helmets. But they were breathable. It went well.

“The offense really won today," Gray continued. "The defensive players are going to say they won, but the offense really won today, though. Don’t let nobody tell you any different. But yeah, today was good. I’ll see y’all tomorrow. Day 2.”

Sophomore linebacker Quavaris Crouch didn’t talk face shields or masks, but he did respond to Gray on Instagram with his own practice feedback.

“To be honest, I’m just confused why Eric Gray thinks the offense won today when they certainly didn’t,” Crouch said. “That’s just one thing I don’t like.”

I certainly hope the offense won lol! I think our defense will hold its own this year, but our offense with you know who under center has me wringing my hands a little, don’t want another year with a stagnant offense. Hopefully our running game can dominate this year for us

First scrimmage going to be a spirited one.

Wonder if Miles Jones and Velus Jones (transfers) will step up at WR? They both have experience, so it will be a matter of chemistry...

Miles Jones has to sit a transfer year.

Dan Wolken wants positive tests in droves so he can push his agenda.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Best idea out there, sorry boys. No one can do revenge like a woman.

So invite yourself to his house?

Kevin suing Georgia isn’t the big reason Cade left. I’m pretty sure AV has mentioned it, but I won’t say anything in case he hasn’t. It’s probably going to come out now that he has been denied. I have a feeling they are about to make Kirby, Georgia, and the NCAA look very bad.

Please, please, please, please let this happen...

Kennedy Chandlers dad was on Memphis radio:

Coach Lanier started the recruitment KC’s freshman season. Coach Barnes did a great job throughout. Coach English picked it up hard and heavy. Penny wanted him but was late.

What solidified his decision was Kevin Durant’s dad calling the family and selling Barnes as a person and how he takes care of players after basketball.

I actually did not know former players could contact recruits. Thanks for the recap.

No, let the wife take care of it, as it should be.
