We are about to find out just how good Butch and the gang are at recruiting. I have 100% confidence in them, but this one has an Ole Miss stench to it.

Already know how good they are. Hope it is within major guidelines as well. This one recruit means nothing as far as how well they recruit. I know you probably feel the same way.

I'm just confused on how UT boosters know that ole miss has the lead? Is Kongbo telling the staff and then the staff is telling the boosters?

Or are these boosters reading 247 CB predictions?

Boosters are reading this board. I am also a booster since I have season tickets. Probably several boosters on this board.

Ole Miss cheats just as much as UT and every other school. If we lose him its because we didn't close the deal.

How does it feel to be wrong about everything you discuss? Do you have any proof of any shady recruiting with our current staff? I'm sure we can provide a laundry list of examples as to why we feel Ole Miss, Auburn, and Bama are dirty. Put your money where your mouth is or crawl back in that delusional hole you crawled out of.

Absolutely!!! I fully believe we have an elite recruiting staff, and Butch is one of the best closers, IMO. I'm really not that worried about recruiting, although I follow it year round, because it's fun! I'm interested to see what we can do going up against something like this, when you know 2+2 doesn't equal 4.

Boosters know nothing more than we do about recruiting, I hate to break that to some of you but that does not mean burninorange is wrong by any means or anyone else. I am very good friends with a gentleman who has multiple buildings named after him on campus and is very close to the Haslams so outside of being friends with Big Jim himself I don't know of a bigger booster. With that in mind, I hear things about coaching searches and building projects but not recruiting. It's possible Jim may know some things more than Hubbs and co. but I doubt it.

1.) I agree with you. Most boosters don't have time to keep up with recruiting.

2.) Multiple buildings? I wasn't aware any building on campus with the same name.

Well, I am very close to a very very(2 to demonstrate how large) booster. He can go to practices and has a box on the 50. Every year in the programs he is recognized by the Athletic department. I tailgate with him and my niece babysits his daughter. Two possibilities: 1: He don't know ish!!! 2: If he is told anything, what he is told he does not share because he is or is acting clueless about recruiting.

It is a bit funny to always see it play out the same. If the info isn't 100% UT slanted, it's garbage.

Yeah I agree that people look for the bright side. But sometimes the CB's make sense and sometimes you can tell we still have a shot. (Derrick Brown)

I mean, we've known all along we're probably not getting all these players. I've been thinking out of all the blue chips that Dickerson was gonna be the odd man out, but it might be Kongbo.

I still think we've been the most steady influence in this whole recruitment. No reason to give up yet. Just another interesting development.

Yeah I think really everyone that visits this weekend we have a shot at. A few may be far fetched but it's certainly not a forgone conclusion. Jmo
