Whoa...I see you Wisconsin. That's the best hire of this off-season. I hope he has the same success there he did at Cincinnati.

Urban to Cincinnati wouldn't be that crazy and he'd inherit the most talented team in that conference immediately. So he'd walk in able to win 10 games I believe. Question is would Cincinnati want the baggage that likely comes with him...
Hiring Urban Meyer is kind of like hooking up with that really easy, dirty chick. It will be fun for a minute, but then it starts burning when you pee.

Urban can give fairly immediate success, which is fun in the moment. But the baggage he leaves behind is horrible at a program level, so the long-term pain, discomfort and embarrassment just isn't worth it.
 
Vandy post game Basilio mentioned that Tillman has shut it down altogether. Most likely won’t play in the bowl and just save himself for the draft. I don’t blame him.

Neither do I. He needs to get healthy and try to salvage his draft value. He’s one of the guys that got us back and has more than given his all for Tennessee.
 
Going back and watching Milton’s throws against Vanderbilt again now and I’m a lot less worried. He still had some errant throws that weren’t necessarily weather related, mainly the ones in the 15-20 yard range that he rocketed high, but I can see why he hit the first long pass to Hyatt and then kind of had issues with the deep shots since. If you look at the pass to Hyatt, the ball starts off inside the numbers and you can see Hyatt look up and track it, but as it was coming down the wind took it about 1-2 yards from right to left and Hyatt made a nice grab by turning his body a bit to get it. The wind had some effect on that ball. From that moment on he was putting less air under the ball and trying to drive it through the wind, just like on a windy day how a golfer will use less loft and try keep the flight of the ball lower. Lower to ground, less wind. When Milton did finally put more air under it again on one throw to Squirrel, the ball started out with a line going towards the numbers and ended up just inside the hash marks. Both of those throws where he put air under it were going to the same direction on the field and both times the ball moved the same way, right to left. If the wind at the top and above the stadium was anything like I had at my house about 20 min away, I can see why a rough throwing day happened. Hooker even commented during his interview how the weather put a damper on the “get your popcorn ready” comment he had on his Instagram story. I think the weather effected more than most of us thought originally. JMO.

Exactly. Ced gave his all and he doesn't owe us anymore. If anything we owe him the time to rehab, get healthy, and support him for the combine and pro-day. Hope he gets a great draft grade and makes a splash at the next level.
 
Would be nice if Hyatt comes back

I think he would benefit greatly from another year to get bigger and improve his craft even more. He risks a situation like Tillman from this year though, so I wouldn't blame him if he gets a good draft grade and jumps. Him getting drafted highly does a lot of benefit for our program too.
 
He looked tired at times this year. It's gotta be coming.
