Yup, can find one here in TX, but if I could find a training conference/course in or around Knoxville on a home game weekend, then the trip would be a business write-off... All I would have to do is buy my tickets :)

I'll look and see. Memphis is the only one in TN that I know of.

I am from Memphis, are you talking @ MERI? Nice training facility. I go to any conference in Memphis that I can attend (family still there).

Sorry for hijacking AK's thread, but maybe this is better than some of the other posts? :)

What say ye MZTERRY?

Yep. The MERI is the best facility in a 200 mile radius. I'll be there the last weekend in July. Still some openings if you wanted to attend.

As for Alvin, a good friend of mine just moved to Alpharetta so I'm going to see about watching a Norcross game this year. I'll have the UT hat on of course.

Why wouldn't he? It is a great experience. He will come and have a good time watching his friend. In the end, he is a senior in high school playing football. Some of these kids will be in the NFL and some will not get drafted. But, they will get an education and have memories for life playing D1 college football. But, in the grand scheme of things, it means alot for my entertainment but little for my interest in the real important things of life. Part of that is having the respect of others and bashing high school kids on which college they attend when they don't choose the one I pull for is having misplaced life priorities.

Agree^.

There are 3-4 RB's that I would love to see come to TN, AK being one of them, but it really is not a life altering thing if they don't come here. Fact is also, that we will NOT get all 3 or 4 that I want to come here, maybe none of them. I'm not going to bad mouth a young mans decision to play for another school. I'll root against them on game day, but that is about as far as that will go. I hope AK has fun visiting the school and at the games. I also hope he chooses TN as the school he wants to play for, but if he doesn't.......good luck where ever he plays. I'll still be cheering for the VOLS!

From Scout today. FWIW

While also still thinking about several schools, the speedy Alvin Kamara is another player at the running back position that admits Alabama is still very much alive as fall approaches.

“Georgia is pretty high on my list, probably one or two – up there with Alabama,” he told Simmons. “It’s Alabama,” he later said of why the Tide is among his favorites. “They have the best; they always bring in the best.”

Kamara is planning on committing before the end of the summer if he “gets that feeling” although other schools like Tennessee and Florida State remain in the mix.

Probably not a good sign for us if he does commit before the end of the summer, since he won't be visiting UT much most likely until the fall.

But the reason I posted that is just last week I believe someone posted his top 3 were UA, UGA, and Clemson. No mention now of Clemson, but UT is in there. I agree if in August may not be good but I read it more like he would like to but may not because he would like to see UT and FSU first.

Very possible. I don't see him going to FSU...I may be wrong. It was good to see that he didn't mention Clemson, and did mention TN...and that's without visiting yet. We may not get him, but unlike many who think we are out of it already, this proves that we are very much in it. I think it will be a UGA/UT battle in the end. JMO.
