SoCal has 7 SEVEN verbals, all from CA.

Ranked 57 on Rivals, just behind perennial powerhouse Iowa State.

That's a remarkable difference from this time last year.

Cuonzo Classic Golf Event!!!

There... fixed the quote. Ron didn't finish quoting the entire article.

lol

I think the early release was orchestrated by CBJ, personally. CBJ puts on quite a show. He has a real talent for this kind of stuff that seems rather unique to me among college coaches.

I don't think they're happy about it.

His hot sauce had gotten mild IMO.

Scholarship restrictions folks, they can only sign like 15 players.

That's a remarkable difference from this time last year.

This time last year, the know-nothing media had SC ranked #1, Barkley the #1QB and Robt. Woods ranked the #1 WR.

Oh, and that loud-mouth kid from Nashville was trying to recruit everyone to LA, then he goes to Tallahassee.

 

[volssam]

Coleman Thomas I presume.

Croom plays in the slot now...



-VQ

I always see these position move quotes, and the players always say they were receptive when the coaches come to them... I wonder what the results would be if they refused? Does that happen and we never know about it; or, do they pretty much not have a choice if they want to play?

He definitely gets it with this video/commercial.

Could be talking about the Adidas release since it shows more than one pic

Good for Hunter.

I've given him a hard time around here, and I still need to see it to believe that he is gonna be a star in the NFL, but all the best to him if he can pull it together. :rock:

 

[Pacer92]

Butch gets it.

This!! I've witnessed a lot throughout my time as a UT fan, but I can't remember ever being as excited about a season as this one. SEC title game in year 3....mark it down.

Personally, I would think VQ dropped it a bit early, and then the AD went ahead to release everything else to ride the momentum.

If that doesnt excite you..

not gonna lie these new jerseys made me tear up a little. finally got somebody who EMBRACES TRADITIONS and takes us in the PROPER DIRECTION. GBO

 

[Wilson27]

I am going to get flamed for this but here goes....I actually am all for mixing up the unis somewhat but this gray thing was too much for me. I realize that part is subjective. The part I wish were different is the belief we somehow have to ho ourselves out to get recruits with new uniforms. Last time I checked we were number 1 in the rankings in recruiting BEFORE this new uniform hit the presses.

 

[seaofORANGE22]

These are pretty cool. I don't know what I was really expecting. But I can't complain. They aren't as gaudy as they could have been. Kinda still look like throwbacks, but with an eye towards the future... Yeah. That. Go grey Vols.

 

[seaofORANGE22]

The only thing I wish was that there was more orange. But I guess there's still plenty of time for that in our other games. I am excited we're doing something new though. Gah I can't wait to just watch football.

 

[J-P]

FWIW, I love 'em. In one of those pics I thought the grey looked a little too much like baby blue, but the video shows it's definitely more of a Bluetick Hound grey.

And Butch definitely gets it...

I'm guessing you were born in '27 like your name suggests.

It's not just for recruiting. It's for the current players as well.

Uhhhh...that was Al Wilson's number. So I guess you were born yesterday.
