Why did they put a mask on him in Spider Man? If they had just painted his face green they would scared every child in the theater and even some adults.

When was the last time that a team recruited two 5-star DTs in the same class? Just curious and don't have the time or motivation to look for myself. I figured Bama probably has at some point.

Florida with Easley and Floyd. If we get Tuttle you can expect a similar impact.
 
Picked up a CB to UNC.

It is a guy off of Twitter with a John Belushi pic from Animal House (I had that poster btw)....It does not exactly exude credibility. He is a Carolina fan who has seen 9 CB flips from them to us in the last two weeks and wants to make himself feel better tonight since he couldn't get a date and his mom won't spring for pizza.

That was a long burn but a burn none the less. Points for effort and creativity...Jk Go Vols
 
Shy is smart enough to understand the NCAA is about to destroy not only football but the entire UNC athletic department for academic fraud. UNC is not one of the untouchables and the hammer will serve as a validation crutch for the NCAAs existence..for another year or two.

This will ignite the fan base right before we unleash hell on Utah State. Fire, brimstone, skulls of warriors defeated will rain down on Neyland following our triumph. A deep chasm will open at midfield and swallow all that is Utah State. We will rejoice with the finest meats and cheeses in all of the land.

Can we save that little trick for when Alabama comes into Knoxville?

I had considered choosing the name ALLVOL_#$^*_24_#$^*_7_#$^*_365 or possibly ALLVOL_#$^*24Hours-60Minutes-60Seconds-1000Milliseconds_#$^*7_#$^*365, but was afraid someone might pick something similar.

DPF you could have made it triplet brothers by different mothers my friend.

We would have welcomed you to the family with open arms, after all we are ALL VOLS.

Now on to Shy, I am like most everyone else on here and feel that Shy is coming to THE HILL. He would be a great addition to the class and to the team. Butch and his staff and our special recruiting department, ie KM, are working all angles on Shy. I can not wait till he makes it official and we can all celebrate.

I doubt Shy Tuttle goes to UNC for a few reasons:

1. UT's future looks brighter due to a much better recruiting class last year than UNC and a better recruiting class this year than UNC.
2. Playing in the SEC, playing in Neyland Stadium, compared to what UNC offers.
3. Playing with K. McKenzie and last years stout d-line class.
4. Lexington, NC (Best BBQ in NC) is nothing like Chapel Hill, NC. It's a small southern town and he'll likely be more at home in Knoxville.
5. We have T. Thigpen on our defensive staff and as our ace recruiter and UNC does not.

In the past, we've seen UT come in relatively late and beat UNC for top North Carolina recruits such as: Montario Hardesty, Marquez North, and many others I can't recall off the top of my head. I like our chances this time as well.

On a side note, the outcome of UNC's academic fraud issues is something nobody knows about, so let's keep this about the two schools recruiting Shy. It may be fun to bash UNC, especially if you dislike them (I'm a Duke fan and hate them), but in reality nobody knows when or if the NCAA will say UNC committed other violations and therefore have additional probation or scholarship limitations.

I agree with a lot of what you said. But why should we leave out UNCs academic fraud? It probably plays a huge role in their recruiting class. You don't think coaches bring this up to recruits who are looking to possibly go to UNC?
