So, at one time we thought we had 5 star Trevor Lawrence locked up, but now we are supposed to be excited about taking a QB out of Alabama( with No offer from the state schools). And his best sport isn't football....

If he was a 6 star, you'd find something to complain about so it doesnt really matter.

That's probably the dumbest thing I've ever heard. There is a difference between a negavol and being an idiot. No one would cry about getting the best player to ever live, a 6 star. Don't be ignorant.

Oddly enough, that's exactly how I feel about folks on here who manage to find the most negative spin on everything.

They think we are negative all the time and want UT to lose. The reality is the negavols want to compete for championships and realize you can't do that with a roster of 3 stars. We don't lie to ourselves and put a postive spin on every single detail concerning UT.

A QB out of Alabama with no offer from Bama or Auburn is significant. And you pumpers know it.

Conveniently ignore the Ole Miss offer and the fact that his relative obscurity is more due to his promise as a baseball player than his failures as a QB.

I know those things don't fit your agenda, but you're creating a false narrative here to frame that agenda.

UT and a down trending Ole Miss, and who else? Or would listing those schools kill your agenda?

Troy is a damn good football team. I'm sure you think no one plays football outside of the SEC.

We sure wouldn't wanted to have played Troy this season with the team they have in 2016. They could beat a few SEC teams in 2016 if they had played any. They aren't 8-2 for nothing even though they're not in a P5 conference.

Yes, yes, forbid that we try to see the bright spots in adversity. Thank goodness we have people like you who spread the crap like it's your calling. If your VN insights are indicative of your daily existence, your world must truly suck.

I love it when some people just believe that they know more about players than the coaches do. It's ridiculous.

Jameis played baseball at FSU and worked out fine.

He didn't play too much baseball for suspensions & dealing with the rape case. I heard he had to miss quite a few baseball practices & even some games over court appearances due to that case. :wink:
