Recruiting Football Talk VIII

I'm originally from Carter County, and it's truly beautiful. But honestly, all of Northeast Tennessee's countryside is. From Grainger to Carter, the region is full of natural charm. Unfortunately, with all the new construction and transplants moving in, much of that beauty is slowly being lost.
I love it all up there - Laurel Bloomery, Mountain City, Elizabethton, Roan Mountain, Erwin, you name it!
 
Wonder who has been to all of them. I’ve hit a fair share but would have to think about it.
Before he passed in 2015 my dad and I always used to talk about taking a summer raodtrip across all 95 counties and staying a night in each county seat. Think I’ll do that with my sons when they’re a little older. What a special state we call home!
 
I don't understand the physics...

I hope we're built to win this season.


Get after the QB on the edge, lock down the WRs with what should be a top CB duo. Ed/Telander/Carter bring the wood, DTs should be better pass rushers this season. Run the ball effectively with PLew/Bishop/Star. Boo Carter breaks out biggly on both sides of the ball. Mike Matthews turns into a stud, Brazzell and Staley complement. E Davis shows out, and the freshmen duo at WR provide highlight plays. We should be in most games with a chance to pull it out. You can never go wrong in the SEC with elite defense and strong running game.
 
I’ll say this, if Merk or GMac both fail to play significant snaps this year then my money is on Faizon to win the job next year.

It’s now or never for Merk imo. I think GMAC with some weight on him has a higher ceiling. Faizon has the highest of all 3 though for sure. But I could see a world where GMAC starts next year without playing a lot this year still
