Would be such a weird/bad decision to sit a year. Dude is 24 months from prepping for the draft. OR Coach O/LSU is in for some maaajor shiz. Even then, I'd think he'd go OOC and keep playing.

It would be a bad decision on his part unless they arent using him like they said they would.
Wouldnt be the first time O lied to get recruits
On the far field, outside the fence chance that he comes here he would certainly be a draw for other top targets in the 22 class.

If you’re so unhappy with the team/program, that you’re actively rooting for them to fail... then maybe find something else to occupy your time. 🤷‍♂️

Why devote endless hours to something that’s making you miserable?

I know you were so cocksure a change was coming, mocking those of us who didn’t “understand hubbanese” or were too stupid to “read between the lines” .... only to figure out you got played like a fiddle by “insiders” yet again. But the angst you now feel will pass. I promise.

Maybe log out for a bit until super homer Ron comes back. 😉

I’m not rooting for them to fail. But they will fail with Pruitt as coach and this administration running things the way they do. When I said I hope they all transfer I mean I hope for their own good they choose another school, one that’s trying to win. They’ll be much better off elsewhere. Next fall is going to be 4-6 wins.

Bailey sure, but IIRC the story was Ojulari and Gilbert were a lot closer friends than they were with Bailey. I want to say when Ojulari decommitted and went to LSU the VQ guys emphasized how they were such good friends.

Yea, I dont expect anything at all to come of it. They just needed a few extra clicks this month i guess.

He could be another CP in the offense in dream land.

Anything above that is accomplishing something with this staff.

I think Gilbert will end up staying. Ojulari is already a star there and he's shown no indication he wants to leave. Gilbert's mom wants him back at LSU from everything I've heard.

If Chaney stays how on earth is this team gonna win at least 6 games next year? His best year at UT was with the outstanding talent of the 2012 team. Next year won't compare. Pruitt's only chance to even start digging out of this insurmountable hole next year is to hire an innovative OC with a system that's not too complex to have success with in year 1. I like Chaney but as we all know his offenses thrive with superior talent like most pro style based systems do. We don't have that talent yet. I'm hoping Pruitt can at least improve the defense next season but offense needs to be his focal point if he wants to survive.

THIS.

Chaney's single UT offense to average merely over the FBS AVERAGE needed Bray, CP3, Hunter, Rivera, the best OL since the late 90s (allowed 8 sacks all season), top 2 RBs averaged over 5 YPC together, etc and so on...

Yeah don't see that happening again as much as I'd hope it to. All we need to do is go from 21 ppg under a defensive regressive HC to 35 ppg 🙄

If nothing else they need to lie, cheat. and maybe even steal their way into getting something with ability to coach the OL and DL respectively.

Can they really "block" anyone though? That changed like 3-4 years ago. Or maybe you mean the destination (within the SEC).

They absolutely have to place the kid in the portal within 2 days of the 'notification of transfer'. They can try to talk them back off the ledge, but if they are keeping them out of the portal, that would be a violation and they should contact the NCAA.

Theyre “stalling” (that’s probably the kindest way to put it for the coaches) portal entry. If they carry it out long enough, spots will fill, people will have to stay, you get it.

Where does one apply to become an official insider? It seems there must be some openings. I'm guessing the backroom at Olive Garden but not sure.

Wow, thats incredibly childish and yet another bad look for Tennessee. If they dont want to be here let them go.

Could be less than that once this dust settles. How many SEC teams have ever had a real shot at their best Players on BOTH sides of the ball transferring in one offseason? I guess we can be the champs of that, cause it has never happened before and probably never will again.
