    Boo Carter (Status, Rumors, Updates)

    John actually had a better season. He did a lot of running after pass protection broke. He still averaged 5.1 YPC. He also had several hundred yards passing, played safety, was the punter and placekicker. Most folks see his loss as the greatest injustice in Heisman history. It was much worse...

    Boo Carter (Status, Rumors, Updates)

    John told me he sat on that line for 30 years, waiting for the right time. It just so happened that it was said during an interview by Hornung.

    Nicco: “Come back home to family”

    At this point it’s just embarrassing! The kid should gag it and move on.

    Basilio says no way we have 24,000 on waiting list for tix

    So, how many here are on the waiting list? If there’s 24,000, several should chime in here. Right?

    There’s some saying about a book and its cover that applies well here.

    Interesting Article about QB Competition... Hope Zach is Correct!!

    We have recruited well. I am not concerned. Nico was nothing great so no great loss.

    Hendon Hooker "This is home for me"

    The pass to Bru late to set up the field goal was as exciting as any in Tennessee history and I’ve been watching for 65 years.

    Finebaum says Tennessee and Georgia QB situations are “not fine”

    Paul could very well be right. Aguilar is a pick waiting to happen. He throws a lot of balls in the area of the other players. If we have a really successful year, I have serious doubts that it will be because of Joey. Fortunately we have recruited well. Both young guys were much higher...

    If Tennessee Leaves Nike Question

    Not a lot of difference in the 2 companies. Both are making their apparel with child labor in China. They make just enough in VN and Cambodia to be able to say they do it there. The majority of Adidas factories are in China. There’s no moral high ground for either company. They’re both guilty of...

    Sources: UT Athletics Mulling New Apparel Deal With Adidas

    Gotta keep in mind that we are at the threshold of the settlement being imposed that will limit each school’s ability to pay a player directly from school funds. Moving forward this money will not impact NIL so much. That money will still have to come from outside interests like Spyre. The...

    Sources: UT Athletics Mulling New Apparel Deal With Adidas

    Wilson is the standard for great footballs and should be used by all NCAA schools. There’s too much variation in all of the other brands.

    Was Cooper Mays the last VFL?

    One major problem with the NIL era is the unset market. Some of these kids making pretty good coin will never earn a dime in the NFL and they know it. That’s why so many are transferring. Thomas, in all likelihood, will never make an NFL roster and he’s wanting to make money now. I’m sure he’d...

    I don’t get why you don’t get it

    Nico wasn’t much better than Milton was the argument, absent the typo. Neither thought it was a bad idea to run out of bounds on the final play of a game with the game on the line. I disagree on the offensive line. Hooker made line play look much better than they were because he got the ball out...

    I don’t get why you don’t get it

    I think that’s relative. We rode a guy in 22 who was tailor made for this offense. He made fast reads and was always a threat to run. Other than at QB, we are better at almost every position than we were in 22. I’d say we’re a QB really clicking with this offense away from being really good. We...
