[TheBigOne10]

Man, Peyton Lewis looks like an absolute UNIT this offseason. Going to punish some dudes!

Sounds like maybe the council did the Boo talking...

Mike Matthews and Braylon Staley aren’t playmakers? I see you in recruiting threads freaking out about missing recruits all the time, but two high rated receivers who you were probably ecstatic about landing at the time aren’t good anymore?

He's having a rough day. He switched sides earlier and is still trying to get used to how nice things are over here.

Pick literally any team and they have issues. Not unique to us.

This. BYU just lost their starting QB. It’s not just us, y’all

So the smoke has flames and a name.

It's all just rumors...always has some seed of truth

Calling the side that’s never miserable “the dark side” is…something

Consensual.
I mean, come on, it's not like he drank a Mountain Dew or something.

Taking my beefs from Waffle House to Little Cesars.

Man I witnessed a similar thing in an Applebees about 3 weeks ago! This poor kid comes into the restaurant with his girlfriend. They’re all shook up because some guy has been harassing them on the road and they came into the restaurant to try and get away from him because it’s public. Literally as he’s telling this story to the hostess, this big fat burly guy runs through the door, body checks this kid into the wall, starts punching him about 3-4 times, and then high tells it out of there after management comes and runs him off. The cops showed up and everything, it was insane!

Needless to say, best Applebees trip of all time.

Geez. Cancel this season. We aren’t going to be score points according to this guy

I never said that. I said 9th in the conference, or middle of the pack, is what we are.

This is why culture and a player profile in recruiting matter. I know some like to poo poo it. Some young people may take time to figure it out. But, those who have the drive and motivation (even when now being paid) to succeed can be better players even if they have an ounce less of physical talent. Having the mental part is half the battle. It’s something Rick Barnes has been able to bottle up for 3-4 years now.

IF Boo is really flirting with Colorado, chasing NIL RIGHT before the season, blowing off practices and responsibilities, queu the Curly Bill GIF

IF he doesn’t end up on the team, I’m really glad we got Colton Hood in the portal

I’d love to have a specific example of Basilio making something up. Anytime Basilio talks or writes about something the University mouthpieces haven’t people kinda dog the guy. I think he’s alright.

 

[BigSteve09]

Boo better than 50% gone
Jourdan Thomas out for the season


Yikes.

The Basilio haters on here are something. First they say he makes things up, then when it actually comes out they say he just read it off of VolNation. Poor guy can’t win.

Basilio’s problem is that he doesn’t help himself with the stupid antics like “deep vol throat” or whatever the hell he calls his random ass sources. Realistically, he probably is right more than he’s wrong, but he talks like a nutter and that causes people to think he’s just a buffoon.

 

[ETNVolunteer1]

AP said as far as he knows Boo can’t just transfer to another school at this point. So he’s just going to sit out a year? Doesn’t seem very smart on his part

For about 5 or 6 seasons, Dale Carter was one of the five best CBs in football. Think about that...

One of the best Corners in the game, played Safety for the Vols. On our backend, Im ready for THAT kind of speed and athleticism again.

Dale Carter is the best Defensive Back to ever play for the University of Tennessee.

Lmaoooo. Orange Throat writes for the blog. I assume whoever Orange Throat is calls themself that. “Deep Vol Throat” hahahaha.

Missing meetings and showing up late happens at every team. What I can’t figure out is why our players are letting this stuff out to media members.

Should be handled internally
