I think T.J. and Paysinger could find playing time somewhere at UT. Ed Dickson would start at TE along with 2 or 3 linemen. Talent-wise, I believe that's about it. But that's strictly my opinion. Oregan lost alot of seniors that were awesome. Blount being suspended makes room for BB too. That's my .02 cents. I'm sure true Duck fans think that EB is the only Vol that could play for the Ducks also.

This thread is way off topic.

We fired our staff after the season you think describes UT football. It's NOT horseshoes. Close does NOT count.

Huh? The staff was fired because they were the opposite of close.

No Tinker Bell claims have been made. There's nothing false about saying the SEC champ has been the NC for the past three seasons. It's stating a FACT. NO magic!

That fact is only relevant to this discussion if you're implying that it means the next champ will be from the SEC. The SEC has had a good run. But, programs change and different teams can win. That's why we watch the games.

Is Wyoming in the SEC? UCLA?

This is the only UT stat you have acknowledged. It's shows so much bias. If you're going to post here, why don't you learn something more about UT football? Last season, in no way, defines our tradition.

We've been over this. It defines the most recent measure of performance for the team. Thus, it is very relevant toward evaluating how good they are.

It's your only sense of history beyond last season. Your grandfather played for the Ducks at some point. If that is true (taking your word as no support has been provided), what we know for a fact, is that his team did NOT win a NC.

Hah! Believe it or not.

Well according to your philosophy Bowling Green is better since the most recent measure of performance for them was better than UT.

And since you think Bowling Green is better than UT, well then, I don't really know what to think about you.

Edit: I guess Bowling Green did beat Wyoming at Wyoming. Didn't see that one coming when I picked BG out of a hat. :(

UT was 'close' to winning the SEC in 2007. We finished the season 10-4. It wasn't enough. In 2007, you think the Ducks were 'close' to 'winning the NC,' yet they finished 9-4 (I know you think DD would have carried the day for you)? Would the Ducks have beaten LSU that year. I don't think DD was good enough for you to keep suggesting that outcome as they had a defense unlike any you faced. Yet, the Vols played literally played 'close' to the Tigers that season (pick 6 difference) while you keep bragging about how the Ducks could have played close if they had the chance and Dixon was healthy.... and add Tinker Bell to your argument about here... .

I'm not talking about the 'next champ' as we are considering three seasons before Brown would go pro right? I'm saying that if you insist on using the most recent history (e.g. you keep arguing about last year and next year and put blinders on everything else), then last year the SEC won the NC (as they have done for the past three seasons). I assume Brown would play more than one year as his only option would be the CFL again (or transferring out of Oregon, if he made that mistake:)). He has to play three before going to the NFL. During those three, UT will rebuild. It may not be this fall, but we'll be respectable and we'll get better. It's over that period of time that I think UT's odds of winning a NC are certainly as good as Oregon's chances. We have better talent and better coaching and we play in the better league.

Again, this is the only season you know. Read more. Learn the way of the Vols.

Do you think coaching plays any role whatsoever in college football?


Hah! Believe it or not.

Oh... I believe your grandfather played for an Oregon team that did NOT win the NC. No Oregon team ever has. The only part I have to accept is that someone played on a team that failed to win a championship. That's not as hard to believe as you might suspect.

Don't be so sure about who is the Homer in your claim that Oregon's football program has UT's accomplishments.

UT 6-time National Champion

Oregon played for over 100 years and still has not won one.

You should punt on this one, Duck.​

Btw. How many conference championships has Oregon won. Let alone NCs. Oregon has 3 Conference Championships in 50 Years. One of which was a 3 way tie. Geez. Get that Crap out of here.

For the record, I am NOT that desperate for Brown to come to UT.

I've said I'm fine with our current recruiting class as is. I think Miami is more likely for Brown than is Oregon, unless BB is an Oregon Homer like Wheaton, it's just not a rational decision. It would have to be more of an emotional than a rational decision.

Or, it could be that CLK decides he doesn't fit the team's chemistry as some have suggested. I don't think that will be the case, but who knows? We've had some undisciplined 5* athletes who did not work out in the past.

I didn't say that last seasons record is the end-all decider of who is better. It's just substantial evidence. Other factors could be at play as well.

Funny about BG and Wyoming. Maybe BG isn't all that bad? What in the hell happened with Wyoming anyway?

Can you point out to me where I claimed that Oregon "has UT's accomplishments?"

Just the opposite, I've pointed out that about 95% of those accomplishments don't mean a thing toward the subject of where Brown fits best.

What argument do you have without invoking ancient history or conference comparisons? Why try and bolster UT with teams that either don't exist or are not UT to begin with?

You do not fit here either.

In Fact, UT has more NCs than Oregon has conference championships.

Brown does not fit anywhere. He will head to Miami or LSU if he does not sign with UT.

why are you on this board? you have terrible arguements and NOBODY wants you here. Doesn't Oregon have their own forums you can post on? Or at least have the courtesy to start a "UT vs. OU" thread and get out of bryce brown's recruiting thread.

I already explained "why I am here."

I was looking for info on the Brown visit. Saw some Oregon bashing and was inspired to respond.

Are you kin to Droski. Go read his threads and posts to see how to conduct yourself when visiting another board. It should be noted that even though he is a California Fan he is respected by Volnation. You can start an Oregon Thread in Volnation and get all the argument about Brown and the game you desire.

You have said what you need to say about BB so let it go and move on.

ITS ANOTHER TEAMS BOARD. what are you expecting to see? "Oh i am sure brown will go to Oregon because they are amazing and the best fit for him and just the best team in the world!" Your looking for an arguement. If you just wanted information, you wouldn't be posting.

Well you just validated that you are an idiot and would not let that one go either. You are close to being banned. Get this crap out of here.

Does anybody know how the BB visit is going?

Thank you. But, I will decide how to conduct myself and when I have said what I needed to.

No. I came here looking for information.

But, I don't mind debating sports. It's actually a common practice amongst sports fans. I'm sorry that it has embittered you so much. Others here seem to be more relaxed about it.

It's ok to disagree with people and still talk civilly.

I think it would be ironic for me to be banned when I've tried to keep it civil while being called a bunch of names.

[And it should be noted that. At the end of the Pryor saga, I got a slew of well wishes from their fans. With the exception of one or two hard-cases, they were ok with a little sports debate over there and welcomed me back any time. So, kudos to them for the apparently ancient art of manliness.]
