    Felix Okpara commits to Vols!

    If he can just hold on to the ball once he gets it we are way ahead of last year。

    The slow demise of college football as we knew it, speeds up

    I remember seeing that players were going to be allowed to profit when their name image or likeness was used, understandably in some kind of advertisement. 12 months later it's open season and I have seen very few NIL ads, ZZ and DK, for example. I haven't seen Nico do anything worth 8 million...

    Roster tracker (updated 4/25)

    Yes the new NIL/transfer process leaves out the fan for the most part. A team can gain from the portal as well as lose but this by-passes the emotional attachment fans have with the school and players they have followed. There is no business, without a monopoly, that markets products to...

    Helmet Comms and 2 Minute Warning coming to college football

    I wish they do something about kickoffs and punts. It's really boring to watch balls kicked into the end zone and seldom any runbacks on punts. Just do away with them or activate them. All they are now are commercial magnets. We must watch 3 minutes of commercials on every punt and kick off and...

    The Official Tennessee @ Kentucky Series Thread (Fri. April 19 6:30PM EST) (Sat. April 20 2PM EST) (Sun. April 21 1PM EST) (All games on SECNET+)

    He was getting ahead and then constantly hitting just outside on the lower corner of the plate. Thats frustrating when it happens. Just 1 inch to the right and you are striking everybody out looking. I guess we were respecting their power。

    ESPN Disrespects Heupel

    I feel like my hands are dirty when I have to go to the ESPN website or watch a ball game on ESPN/Disney. I minimize my Disney presence and could care less what they think about our team/coach.

    Anyone else think that UK welcome for Mark Pope…

    Its a circle jerk with them. They all know it was not the hire they expected but they want to convince each other it it was by busting out for him. It takes them about 15 minutes to get their resolve back and the go home and buy tickets to the 2025 final 4. The guy looks like a good coach to me...

    Awaka to the portal

    Awaka needs to be on the floor with a stronger taller player that can guard the rim. Awaka could get a ton of offensive rebounds and he is a proven scorer inside, could be a 15/12 consistent player. I hope he comes back.

    Kentucky coaching situation

    UK has hired their coach, everyone is acting like they are onboard and creating excuses why this is a better hire than the BIG FISH they wanted. He seems to be a good fit, losing the first game in both of his previous NCAA tournament games. Give their fans a few days to anoint him program savior...

    Mashack next?

    IMO the coach is retiring or these NIL groups are throwing out the cash for players at positions of need. All of the players that hit the portal would have seen significant playing time had they stayed. Aidoo I have no idea other than he was asked to leave.

    Mashack next?

    Maybe they know something we don't?? I am amazed at the amount of transfers after an elite 8 run.

    Aidoo to the portal confirmed

    Aidoo was kicked to the curb by Kansas, UNC, MSU, Auburn, Ole Miss, MSU, USC, TAM, and Purdue twice. Any team with a strong center. Additionally, he can't catch the inbound due to weak hands and is useless outside of 3ft range. Takes up space, alters some shots and has limited success against...

    Aidoo to the portal confirmed

    If you give them the option combined with the publicity of an elite 8 team performance you will lose a lot of players each year. There are so many reasons, homesick, outside NIL offers, bench sitting, coaching pressure, family influences. Now you have to re-recruit the entire roster every year...

    So, when is the press conference?

    It reminded me of the Pearl press conference. I followed his 1st 4 years intently because of the fast paced style of play with the full court press and intense inbounds pass pressure. It was fun and different and they downed some great teams like Texas and Florida culminating with a #1 versus #2...
