John Curtis and St. Augustine are playing on ESPN2. If you're not watching you're missing a show. To say Fournette is a beast is a gross understatement. Wish we had a chance with him but no dice. He'll probably wind up at Bama or LSU from all indications.

BTW, St Augustine just scored with 1:08 to go to get within one point, but rather than kick the point to tie, they went for two and made it.

And Stanley Morgan caught the go-ahead two-point conversion. :)

Yes, Stanley is a good 'un too! I was wondering if he is OUR Stanley Morgan's son? Maybe they said but I missed it.

I'm fired up for tomorrow! Sec CC Row 11! Come visit!

We don't need him. We have Hurd and Paulk.

Man, imagine getting Fournette as a NSD surprise. How great would that be? Love Hurd's game as much as anybody, and this is absolutely nothing against him, but to have both would be a massive 1-2 ground game punch. Like the Gurley-Marshall kind.

Butch's recruiting just has me spoiled at this point, I think.

Just as good. If I had to pick I would take Hurd from what few gms I seen him play he Is the real deal I'm so glad he wants to play for the Vols.

I would take Hurd - Scott duo for 4 years.

You didn't see Fournette last night. What a beast! Hurd is very good but Fournette is in a league of his own, against much better competition no less.

That would be even better than Gurshall IMO.

Ha! We all know you hate Hurd. He's too lanky, right? Anyway, Fournette is not an option, but we seriously need to concentrate on backs that are - like Scott. Paulk has an ACL tear and will be grey shirted. He will not contribute next year. We need another back in this class.

When did this happen?

Yes, heard through the grapevine today that this happened. I believe that it was first reported as a MCL strain, but it has been confirmed as an ACL tear. He'll be grey shirted (which still a little unsure about that term), and will be considered a 2015 (instead if 2014) enrollee. For depth purposes, that's why it's so critical that we look into another back. I know Scott was there today on his OV, and I would guess he's been made aware of the current situation. With that news, the overall atmosphere and just the game in general, I would say that we had to have made a tremendous impact on him. He would be a great complement to Hurd, so I'm really hoping that we swing him in our direction.
