Can someone tell me when was the last time a recruit committed to Tennessee on camera at an Under Armour game? And who it was? Just curious.

I thought Miss St had just demoted him to DL coach the other day?

Maybe they did, but he's been calling the plays the last two years. Regardless, he's been co-DC and DC the last two years and he's now gone for a DL job.

The AA game, I'm assuming.

D’oh. Have the tab open in the browser window. Senior moment.

But I love the way they are letting us know they are doing something. You can tell they’ve been to an Urban Meyer Snake-Oil Sales Seminar. Let’s hope they can get this plane on the ground.

Let's hope they can get it back in the air. I'm okay with what they've done so far, but a handful of top players would be huge. We need them, and by golly we deserve them!

We have all seen the various alternate jerseys and uniforms used by other teams around the nation. Some look good and some are downright ridiculous. Oregon can look so good and on other occasions look gaudy as ever. Maryland's uniforms are just but ugly.

I have to say that I liked Texas A&M's white helmets last night in the Cotton Bowl. They were a pretty sharp addition to their classic looking uniforms. I would love to see Tennessee develop a sharp looking orange helmet with a white Power T on it for road games or various other big games.

Fans can complain all they want about tradition all they want. Remember firstly that we wore black for decades and secondly, it is the kids who wear the uniforms and that is what attracts so many kids to Oregon. The metallic or flat orange helmet would look very good with our traditional colored uniforms.

It is about time to get with the times for the kids. They are the people who will help rebuild this program on the field. Let them take ride in how they look in their own way.

Another stupid decision by bray. Too many NFL people advised him to stay. Brady Quinn will understand Tyler's draft weekend.

Bray was in a no win situation. He made the choice that was the lesser of evils.

If he came back, he would have to learn a new offense that could hamper his stock in the 2014 NFL Draft. Making this move will not send him rising up the boards and he will not be put into a position where he will be expected to start right away in the NFL.

This move may be just what he needs. He can go into the league with no pressure on him and he can sit and learn from some good coaches, a good QB, and learn how to win and play at the next level.

Bray has all of the tools and more to be a good NFL QB. He now needs to learn the mental side of the game. I wish him the best.

I would be surprised if Ware gets drafted 3 or higher, actually I would not be surprised if Ware does not get drafted.

Ware could possibly get picked up by a mostly passing offense ie Broncos, Patriots, etc. As an all around back it ain't happening for him or Ford.

Good luck to them.

I did some research and found online that he is the 11th rated back at this point - funny b/c guess who the 11th back taken last year was?

Alfred Morris - a guy I think he has some similarities to - good physical runner - lacks gamebreaking type speed

i've always liked Ware - hopefully he can land in a good spot and make a career for himself

I expect that machine to keep on ticking without much of a hitch.
Click to expand...

when great offensive minds leave teams many times the machine does not keep on ticking

it certainly didnt when Petrino left Arky and when Petrino left Lville - also when spurrier left Florida - also the 2 years at ttech after Leach left

if you just look at great coaches who left there a few more examples of the next coach not having near the same success

Lou Holtz - twice, at ND and NC state
Pete Carroll - USC
Rich Brooks - KY

there are some other examples of things that keep on trucking for sure and oregon has experienced that with bellotti taking over for brooks and then kelly for bellotti - but i certainly don't think it is a no-brainer that the duck train will keep on rolling

i think the combination of Kelly leaving and them losing a few key guys in their front 7 make our game with them next year much more interesting

This doesn't effect us much, but NFLN is reporting that Doug Marone (the Syracuse HC) is being courted for some of the NFL vacancies.

He's a guy that would have angered most on here but should have been given more a look here. He has tenn ties and is a darn good coach.
