I have been wondering why top RB recruits keep passing on UT when our history is actually more Rich with running backs than receivers if you all could help me out on the guys I am missing I'd appreciate it.

Do you all think we are more WRU or RBU?

Cobb
Webb
Stewart
Hayden
Garner
Bryson
Graham
Lewis
Henry
Stephens
Houston
Riggs
Foster
Fleming
Hardesty
Brown* yeah I know
Poole

My conclusion is if you come to UT and start you will get a shot in the NFL. What you all think.

Point taken, but I'm almost positive Brown didn't start a game.

UT is still Vehicular Manslaughter University..or VMU. We have three proud members of the Vol Homicide Hall of Fame to thank for that. Goodrich, Little, and Stallworth.

I I know we are rich in tradition on the WR side but I can't think of a starting running back in the last 20 years that did not make an NFL team. I can think of a ton of receivers.

Gotta put Alvin Harper in there too.

Need to include Troy Fleming as well. Started for the Titans for several years.

Yeah can't believe I left Harper out and also Eric Parker. Troy Fleming needs to go in the RB list tho.

I'm going to say that 99.99% of recruits don't give a damn about guys who played here 3 coaching staffs back.

How about naming 40 schools who have been nationally relevant since any recruit was in middle school?

Julie Andrews was hot in 1970, but now she's 80.

What I guess you googled it and figured out that you looked like a dip **** and now your trying to change the subject. Funny how that works.

Name one school with more players in the probowl this year. THIS YEAR.

If the answer is no other school has more probowlers, then we are definitely relevant as to producing NFL talent.
