    Low-Star Recruits That Turned Into Gems (2000-2008)

    Jacob Hester (LSU), 2 start recruit from Evangel High School in Shreveport, LA. Made a huge case that you cannot measure heart. Below are the 2 star recruits from this years NFL Draft (1st round only) Pick Team Name Position 2 Rams Jason Smith OT 4...

    I never said that. What I was trying to say is you really never know what you are going to get no matter what "Star" they are. You as a Vols fan should believe the same, wasn't your star QB Jonathan Crompton a 4 or 5 Star recruit? What Star would you put him now.

    Kiffin Failing? How to Tell (the entire series merged)

    No matter how you put it, it was still a choice. He's still at LSU last time I checked.

    Kiffin Failing? How to Tell (the entire series merged)

    I have no idea what you are talking about. He was offered the Michigan job but chose to stay at LSU. There really isn't much left to the story.

    Kiffin Failing? How to Tell (the entire series merged)

    Well, Saban has yet to show he is faithful to any school or program and one can say the jury is still out on Meyer because of the swirlings about him jumping to ND on the first offer. However Miles is a different story, he had an opportunity to go to his alamater but chose to stay at LSU...

    I see what you are saying. For me, I do not put much emphasis on the "stars" in recruiting because some high stars are busts and some low starts wind up being superstars. Two examples, LSU had Ryan Perrilloux, highly recruited and because his head was not on straight, he was kicked off the...

    Sorry, I do not consider myself a troll. I didn't say ya'll did not have any players from the 07 SEC Championship Game, I just asked the question. 9 players, I would agree that is not many. I admit, I am not an avid follower of Tennessee Football but I have looked at the scores of your football...

    Are you telling me that Tennessee only has enough talent to beat Ohio by 11 points? Did I say Ohio? Because I meant to say Ohio. I'm sorry, some of that blame has to go on the coaching staff. When I read the posts on this board, I could swear people on here thinks they would lose to teams like...

    ESPN at it again.

    It starts with the leadership at the top, i.e. all of those high priced coaches you have should be doing their job. Tennessee has talent, maybe not as much as in the past, but they have talent. There is no reason a top teired SEC team should struggle with teams like Ohio. Maybe Crompton can not...

    Fulmer runs this program into the ground for nearly 10 years and people.....

    I here a lot of complaining about the Vols' old coaching staff. Here are some numbers... There are 22 new coaches in college football this year, of them, 13 have a better winning percentage so far than the year before and 4 of them has already equaled or bettered the number of wins from the...

    Why UT will blowout AU

    Are you saying Tenn is playing better than LSU right now?

    If UT loses---ramifications?

    Isn't Tennessee just 2 years removed from playing for the SEC championship? Your coaches and players could not have been too bad.

    Keys To The Auburn Game For A W

    I will say if UT does not beat Auburn in Tennessee this weekend, their new coaching staff is no better than last years coaching staff (performance wise). With that said, I believe the Vols will run the ball down their throat to a close win.

    With even a mediocre QB are we undefeated?

    There is alot of talk about how bad Crompton is and I agree that coaches have lost confidence in him, but when he came out of high school, Rivals had him as a 4 Star and Scout had him as a 5 Star only behind Marc Sanchez and Ryan Perrilioux. Sometimes all those stars just do not pan out.

    The Smell of Change....

    We were desperate. He is a major upgrade from what we had last year. Hopefully he has learned his lesson.
