Not that excited about this years class. Hope I'm wrong, but you can't be elite without elite recruiting. Fire away, but that's my humble opinion.

I have to agree with you. I am no *star* gazer but I do know that it takes a lot of 4* athletes to get to the top of the SEC East, much less beat Bama. We a currently set to sign way too many 3* athletes this year and not all of them are "Diamonds in the rough"

It's not a stunning class to be sure but it addresses many areas of need and provides depth. Tomorrow is still a big day with the signing of Ray still being a possibility.

We need people that can play right away not a bunch of guys we hope will play in 3.

Is there any more room to flip a guy at this point?

I kind of expect tomorrow to sign the guys we have and then Butch goes on about how good his class is and how we should all be grateful.

Seriously though does anyone know how many can be signed in this class? What are the chances of Butch yanking an offer on signing day? That seems pretty wrong.

We'd be doing better if CBJ had a 3-year extension.
We'd really be killing it if he hadn't lost to Vandy and SC.

Vols' 'good class' lacking in same buzz as previous signing days | Times Free Press

"Those first couple of years, the bump you get with a new coach, and you put together some recruiting classes," Tyson said. "At some point, you have to win on the field, and that's what's going to ultimately — recruits, when they're not seeing that, eventually they're going to start not necessarily believing or buying into what you're selling them.
"That's where Tennessee is right now. They really have to put up on the field and start competing for SEC titles. Once that happens, recruiting is going to fall into place, but at this point that's what recruits are wanting to see. Tennessee had everything in place this year. They thought they were the team to beat in the SEC East, and it didn't happen.
"Recruits want to see that from here on out."

I would love to see Florida's recruiting class if they hadn't won the East last year.

Be just a turd in the punch bowl.

Heck who knows.. this class may be explosive never know. With "THE ROCK on the rock" we might just develop this class into a rock.. never know. A good S & C coach can bring out the diamonds. If you got a 5* that is under developed... You might as well call him a 3 star..

What's got me going is the hope that the last few questionable coaches will be politely sent on their ways once the day is done.
