Josh Heupel and the entire offensive staff went to Indiana on Sunday for their in-home with Tayven Jackson. After that stop, Heup and company headed for Alabama to see Squirrel White. Those around him want him in orange and Tennessee has some real allies there. Things appear to be steadied as of now. On Monday, Heupel and Rodney Garner were in South Georgia to see Tyre West before heading down to Orlando schools and Jordan Phillips.

Before he was in Georgia and Florida, Garner and Tim Banks were in New York to see Albany transfer Jared Verse on Sunday. Verse is set to OV this weekend.

Banks and Willie Martinez were in Alabama to see Jourdan Thomas and then came to Georgia to check in on Amari Jackson and Christian Harrison. They also went by a few other schools.

Brian Jean Mary was in Orlando all day and went by to see Demario Tolan. Tolan will go back to LSU this weekend as this one appears to be Vols vs new look Tigers.

Mike Ekeler was in middle Tennessee on Monday checking in on a few schools.

Jerry Mack was in Louisiana to see Dylan Sampson and some 23s.

Glen Elarbee was in Florida to see Brian Grant and then up in Alabama seeing 2023s.

Joey Halzle was in Alabama and saw 2023 QB Christopher Vizzina.

Kodi Burns was also in Alabama, then saw Chas in Arkansas tonight.

Golesh was in Nashville and dropped by Independence, CPA, Ensworth, Lipsomb, and Pearl Cohn.

Lol. Nope. But if it gets us Evans, then I am all for it. I want every team in the SEC to suck and us dominate. If you forgot, they beat us this year.

A 5 point game and we had a completely new staff and players Pruitt wouldn't put on the field and Kiffin faked injuries to slow us down. Yeah, Ole Pi$$ is all that

 

[RiseToTheTop]

zach arnett really wanted our last 2 commits. That’s pretty telling.

Burning lots of Fossil Fuel around this jurnt

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I watched it 3 times without sound trying to figure out what it was about. Then I saw #fakeslide. I don't see it. I saw a change of direction move. We just don't normally see QBs do that.

There are other angles that show exactly what happened better. It was garbage and shouldn't be allowed.

I'm in Knoxville for work until Friday. I want some wings tomorrow night. Who around has the best?

Craven Wings or Big Kahuna both are local choices

Wings Xpress.

 

[Weezer]

Are we expected to process anyone else, or is Sneed the only one?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Thing is I don't see the start of a slide there regardless of what Pickett says. I see a change of direction with a little hop. I don't think a ref would call it even if there were a rule.

You're blind..love ya...but you're blind.

 

[VeeOhElEsYes]

uh, unranked?

JUCO transfers don't have rankings

Can’t stand that guy

 

[ACvol3]

Which wing place does Warren have a deal with? He has his own sauce

 

[yourstruly23]

New starting corner?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

If a defender anticipates a slide that never comes, that’s on them. I’ve seen that as well. I just don’t think this particular case is as ambiguous as you do. Which is fine.

My overall point is that, from a rules philosophy standpoint, you shouldn’t be able to abort an in-progress slide (which is a special rules exception for safety purposes) to take advantage of defenders’ good faith efforts to comply with the rule. Whether a ref might botch the call once in a while doesn’t make much a difference to me. That’s (an unfortunate) part of the game.

I agree, it is garbage cheating

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

It should be just like a Fair Catch. If you make a move like you are going to slide the ball should be down right there. Those defenders have been conditioned to slow down when they get close to a running QB like that because they usually slide to avoid the big hit. If QBs are going to start fake sliding then they need to remove the penalty for the late hit if the defenders stop slowing down.

Exactly

I mean, I know he's a communist, but @Jackcrevol isn't THAT bad.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Can’t stand that guy

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

All I can say is I don't feel bad for the defender. Anticipate better.

This is a horse take...I honestly can't believe you don't see the problem with this.

 

[lilesrt]

I'll be honest, I didn't see what was wrong with that. That's what most here say - it's not just stars, but evaluation. Especially with 10 days left, not sure what anyone really expects from a HC in that position.

And I think Napier flat out sucks...

Agree on all but this. What he did at ULL was unbelievable. We’ll see what happens. I hope he fails at Florida and goes back to Lafayette to coach my Ragin Cajuns.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Not gonna be a good night for me to get Josh Allen points is it? Crap

I’m right there with you.. I need Stefon Diggs points.

 

[Weezer]

I keep wondering who we will lose to the portal?

 

[ConwayFitty]

Yeah...way up at the top of the mountains..8,000-13,000 feet up, and they get snow every year. Little context before everybody thinks it is snowing on Waikiki.

Yeah flooding is definitely the real worry there right now, just unusual that the were calling for up to 12 inches of snow in parts of the big island and 100mph wind gusts

I like that we’re more worried about who we lose to the draft honestly.
