We just finished the worst season ever. Had a complete baboon for a HC the last 3 years. Fired our entire recruiting staff. Fired our AD. Under NCAA investigation.Yes. Yes. Yes. Hire coaches. Talent will come to UT. And low star talent will be developed.
We have hired recruiters for the past decade.
Tennessee does recruit itself to a point. Throw up 40 points a game and look like a fun place to play might help too.
One of our baseball VFLs needs our help...

I would love a milkshake with a good friend rn lol.
Seriously, out of curiosity, what are 3 of your top ten most attractive female celebrities?
That’s been my feeling all along.... we try to jump right out there recuiting like Bama or Georgia and that is just not realistic..... we need a few stars here and there..... the rest to be solid football players with very misses.... when we start winning, and looking like a fun place to play at.... higher rated guys will start lining jump.... that is how Clemson grew to be what they are today.there is no skill in it. That’s my point. Not the way it’s perceived or awarded. Why the hell do you give someone a reward for being the best recruiter when none of their guys have even strapped on a helmet yet?? It would be like crowning someone GM of the year right after the draft or off season.
Being a great recruiter should consist of how the players you recruited produced for you and then look at what the players become. Not the combined total of the “star points” of your recruits.
Successfully signing players that other good schools are recruiting is a skill, regardless of how that player turns out in the end.there is no skill in it. That’s my point.

Very few on here even considered House until today. So why be negative about it? It's clear he would be a home run.
He was a successful DC at UK with a half dozen NFL players. He was DC at FIU for a year and Pitt for two years. He has a SB ring now with the Chiefs and maybe another one Sunday. He worked under Spagnoula with the Rams for a few years.
Honest question...... look at a guy like Matt house. Who never won recruiter of the year or is really even thought of as a recruiter.....
yet he’s been a part of recruitment/development for a lot of NFL players... josh Allen/Aaron donald highlighting names.
Why is he not considered an elite recruiter? Isn’t that what should matter?? Consistently Finding guys that are under the radar that are damn good college players and eventually NFL players.
Yet the only people that are passed as “ace” recruiters are guys like Neids or just some other random ass assistants from elite programs.
We just finished the worst season ever. Had a complete baboon for a HC the last 3 years. Fired our entire recruiting staff. Fired our AD. Under NCAA investigation.
And we’re basically a top 15 recruiting team.
And people are still worried to death about getting good players in here.
bama doesn’t recruit a different breed of person. They just develop the absolute hell out of them. Go look at the 247 profiles of guys like josh jacobs, irv smith, Mac Jones, quinnen Williams. What they do when they get the players is what separates them. It’s not the actual recruits that are the difference.
Wow, I didn't think those crazies would let a little Covid slow them down. I thought they would just put a VooDoo spell on it . What are they gonna so with all those beadsThere a few streets in the quarter that generally aren’t too packed with tourists, depending on the time of year. They’re looking to cancel all the Mardi Gras parades this year.
