'19 CA LB Henry To'oto'o (Tennessee Signee)

[Lloyd_Christmas]

Watched one of his games last season and the announcer pronounced it "Toe-Uh Toe-Uh" just like in the interview posted above. Going to go with that. I'm sure it will get cleared up by HT or UT when he signs.

Done over ...Stick a fork in the thread. Wonder what number young Henry will wear.Would be nice to see him wear Kevin's old number as a tribute kinda thing.

God it feels good beating Bama for a recruit.

I know we beat them for Trey Smith but that was an in-state kid. It's just different pulling a kid from across the country that they wanted. This is a special BOOM.

We aren't anywhere close to being back yet, but I do believe that this is the beginning of a new era.

Majority of the high level recruits we’re landing are gravitating towards the program itself i.e the HC. Developing a relationship is important and good recruiters and teachers establish that. But Harrison Bailey committed with no clue of the identity to his OC/QB coach...because he trusted his HC would get him the right one to guide his development. When you have this dynamic THEN you have a program worth a shizz. So when a Tom Herman leaves your recruiting doesn’t even dip. lol

I agree. Pruitt is getting High school kids to commit to a product that isn’t there yet. I’m optimistic for the future.

I think we can all agree that no matter how it's officially pronounced, Kesling will pronounce it something like "Tow Tau Tool Tee Ah" or something like that.

The one thing I will agree with is that after Henry tells everybody how it is pronounced, they will pronounce it however they feel like doing anyway. you saw how long it took people to stop making jokes about Dobbs lack of eyebrows even after it was divulged that he had a problem with alopecia.

Start with the cadence you would use to say:
"DeSoto"

Okay, now add a stressed long O sound to the end, i.e.

DeSoto-Oh

Now replace the DeS with the number 2.

2-oto-Oh

Does that make sense?

Edit: it might be "toe" instead of "2," but I'm pretty sure I stressed the right syllables.

Brilliant linguistics Jimmy...no sarcasm..that was helpful.

We arent finishing top 5. But it's still a pretty good class all things considered

Especially since Rivals has decided to drop in some cases, and refused to raise the rankings in others, on our guys.
