Honestly, if we end up with a Top 25 class, I'll be stunned with how well this turned out for Tennessee. Between my concerns about Heupel, the never ending investigation, and our one millionth coaching search in the last decade, it's a great place to start

This is the same guy wanting a FB to be a key offensive cog. CPF hasn't exactly adapted to the modern game.

I think they need to win 7 next year. If you want to keep Neyland full, that's the baseline. I think point differential is where we need to pay attention though. Being competitive consistently is a better performance indicator that w/l right now

Nah, he'll just wear Crimson. What difference does it make?

Fruit and nuts really have zero impact on the merriment of my holiday.

I honestly think Pruitt may be a great hire. He has a far better pedigree than the last 3 coaches for UT. My frustration revolves around us being in another trap situation. Everything about Pruitt screams Alabama lifer. If he's successful, he seems about 75% likely to pull a Kiffin. If he's...

When is the last time UT opened the purse in pursuit of athletic excellence?

Dabo is going to die at Clemson. The only way he's leaving there is in a box or retirement.

The GA comparison really needs to stop. If you think Smart and Pruitt are walking into similar situations, you're delusional. One was loaded with talent, and it isn't UT. Also, no early signing period when Smart transitioned. If you're fine punting a class, then cool, but let's not pretend...

Or in the back of kids minds, they're constantly waiting on him to bolt back to Alabama the second Saban retires. We have no idea if this is a commitment to his kids or to his potential dream job.

I kind of wish I could see be there to see it though. Saban sees Pruitt on his phone. A few minutes later he gets a text saying a recruit has decommitted. *side eye stare* It's like a bad marriage, except you know the partner is cheating.

There's no real way this plays out well for either party. Conflict of interest is a real thing. If Clemson hangs 40 on them, the story lines about a distracted DC aren't going to go away. When TN loses on Mays and others during the early signing period, there's going to be mutterings about...

The thing that amazes me is all these people dreaming about an incredible staff and believing Pruitt took less money to build it. The same people that talk about how we're lucky to have a coach at this dumpster fire imagine that it's somehow attractive to top tier staff. We're probably looking...

Just think, we might have Butch Jones again right now. And there goes the smile.

Meh, I'm not sure if he'll even realize what school he's supposed to be recruiting for this year while he's tied up with the playoff. Might as well punt this class unless Freeze goes a little Louisville with the recruits.
