True we don't know how it is all going to go. Still...
I would take this offensive scheme over Pruitt's or Butch's anyday.

I would take these coaches over theirs. Although JP first defensive coaches were good.

It's been reported that the players are saying the atmosphere and chemistry are already better.

It's been reported the players already know what they are supposed to do.

And surely one of the QBs can perform better than JG.

So, there is reason to have optimism that if things come together for the team there could be 7-8 wins. If things do not there could be 5-6. He gave reasons why he is optimistic. You gave the reason for your pessimism. I usually just say 5-8 depending on if things go our way or if they don't.

Can't argue with that

I'm not good at pre-season predictions, but last year's disjointed Tennessee team would've probably won 6 games against your 2021 schedule. Vandy's still hapless, South Carolina looks maybe worse, not sure about Missouri but I doubt they'll be significantly better. If your team plays tougher, more competitive attitude, well coached and doesn't quit on games, 6 wins looks like the floor. Beyond that it depends on how fast the team can get up to speed under a new system.

If both continue to improve and develop, I think both will play. The coaches definitely like Milton's size and potential. Bailey has demonstrated better decisionmaking and more accuracy. The scrimmage is where someone can pull in front. Can't count out Hooker and Maurer... but you have two front-runners who've created some distance. This year isn't last year. And that's a very good thing.

What’s the word around the building about this staff? How they work together w/ the academic side things like that. Just touch on some differences and similarities so far?

Well...was honestly just looking to help a brother out since he helped me previously with training, but if you all want it, KBB is $2,500-$4,500 private sale (entered in condition as Very Good - KBB also lists $4,900 as the typical cost from a dealer...not to mention their $500-1k of dealer fees). Actual mileage is 158k, 140 was off the top of my head sorry...we rarely if ever drive her anymore. Was looking closer to 4k if I sold it. Could do $3,500 for guy I don't know...VN discount. $3k for McGill...McGill get curmudgeon discount 😅

Leather, sunroof, state-of-the-art SIX CD changer 😅 Most importantly, she just gets up and runs every day with minimal issues.
T-A-N-K.

So if I were you I would obviously report it. If the idiot pawns the bag local PD will catch them easily.

Have been some break-ins recently in the area (also...apparently stealing catalytic converters is a big thing now...😑). The thing that I found wild from the community discussion is some people mentioned how they used to live in certain areas of other cities and it was common practice to not lock your doors at all and just keep nothing inside the car. It actually saved people money from not having smashed windows 😶

Also believe that is what Alaskans and northern Canadians do...in case you encounter a bear and need to hop in quickly.

I think he maybe referring to all the California transplants into Texas. Maybe if you were a little younger, you might have gotten that. Good lord, old man, I can’t keep explaining things to you. Now go drink some warm milk before you go to bed in 15 minutes.

Of course; my prediction was based on a simplistic season to season comparison frequently used on message boards. For example, I'm assuming UT will have improved quarterback play, which has become an overriding factor in modern football. That's a key assumption for UT in 2021, and it's the same one that could wreak havoc with UGA expectations this year.

Tyler Baron, from a thread in the FF, for those who avoid that circus:

..It’s taken a lot of work from Baron to get his body in the shape he can perform best at, which meant taking on a different routine. “To be honest, I feel pretty good,” Baron said on Tuesday. “I definitely added a little bit of weight, but with that, I got a lot stronger. I am up about twelve pounds and only [gained about] .2 percent body fat. So I am feeling really good and moving well. Just excited. When I got here, I was around 250. Now I am right around 265.”

...The emergence of his teammate Byron Young isn’t lost on Baron, either. Especially when it allows Tennessee to attack the opposing offense at multiple angles. But, for Tyler, it’s all about Young’s work ethic and not taking anything for granted. “I mean, you can ask anybody on the team, Byron Young has been the most effective person. He’s taken the biggest jump that I think I’ve ever seen, it’s very impressive, and I am excited to play across from him.” Baron added, “You guys will see, but he’s very, very impressive to watch, just as a specimen. He’s really piecing it together, and I am very excited for the season he’s going to have”.

...“Coach Banks allows us to play a lot faster,” Tennessee DL Tyler Baron said. “He gives us less thinking to do. I am really looking forward to it because he puts us in some really good situations in terms of where the LEO’s will be at. It allows us to move around in those one-on-one situations.”...“I love it. Coach Banks [is] giving us the ability to have personality, put ourselves in a bunch of different situations, and show that we can do it. Whether that’s dropping in coverage or covering guys down the field or rushing off the edge or inside, he just puts us in different situations to show versatility.”

..."From this year to last year, you almost can’t even call this the same program, it’s a totally different mindset, and people are taking more advantage of everything. It’s going to be really positive...The biggest thing for me is the mindset of the team and the mindset of the building – When everyone is looking for how they can improve, more so than just getting through. Everybody’s determined, all the new guys are buying into the program, Coach Heupel is leading us in the right direction, and we’re just happy to follow”.

I will think about it. It's a really good deal and I just sold my two beaters because AC units went out in both, so I need a back and forth to work car. 👍

I didn’t even think about the quick release until it was mentioned after practice #1…. I recall Mekenzie Milton had a Dan Marino type quick release. I hear Milton has the quickest release on the team. Maybe that helps give him an advantage

Thanks brother. It’s very generous of you.

New job starts Monday so there is no way I could do anything that far away. Hopefully it benefits one of our brethren here and you get paid too
