Any idea when you guys are opening back up?

We're doing curbside now. We're not opening for dine-in until it's profitable for our bartenders and servers since current numbers with curbside are sufficient to pay overhead and our BoH.

A few managers are taking temporary pay cuts and myself along with two of the managing partners are suspending pay until we can open up 100%. I'm maintaining quality of life on the side by selling refurbished guitars and PC components and a little bit of freelance photography for couples who decided to get married amid lockdown. Wish I had hopped on that gravy train earlier!

If you need a secret shopper, I haven't had sirloin steak in a hot minute and I'm as rigid as they come ;-)

Keep your fingers crossed guys...

There are 3 BIGTIME recruits set to announce tomorrow and Sunday, all 3 of which are said to be leaning VOLS..

Salter is a high 4* QB that is the number 4 dual threat in the country from Texas. He will be an eventual starter here IMO...

Willis (Whatchu talkin bout?) Is a high 4* LB that would be great, but we are already loaded at LB after getting four 4*s in 2020 and 2 more besides him in 2021...

Garner? I think is a 4* DT that we REALLY need because thats probably the hardest position in football to find guys that can hold their own in the SEC. They get double teamed, run over, and just beat up. He is about 330lbs and would likely be in the rotation immediately at DT....

If we can land all 3 of these guys we will pretty much lock down a top 5 class...and have great momentum going into the later part of recruiting season when the rest of the top 150 to 200 rated players nationally decide where to go. For whatever reason, CJP and his other 3 guys that have ALL been rated national recruiter of the year in the past have got UT being the " hottest" team in the country for bigtime recruits to committ to...Clemson is the only school honestly that is not being hurt by our success. It is amazing...we should all be insanely happy.. and hope it continues up to NSD...

GO VOLS!!!!

I think if we bring in the guys we have, plus the couple other 4 stars, we still need 1 more big time guy to crack into the top 3. Would love for it to be an OL or DT. Mims out of GA would be the most likely for those positions but GA is still leading there.

I am shaggy. I am also at the beach, so I will have to wait until I get back next week to get sheared.

I don't go back until June 16th. My hair is so short I feel like I lost 5 lbs. I was going on for 3 long months without a haircut which was driving me nuts. I gave my barber a tip for a job well done.
