Jauan Jennings, damn the stats

Co-sign.

To this day I will youtube Jauan Jennings highlights. The guy was incredible here.

Additionally, he's having a better pro career than both Marquez Callaway and Josh Palmer. Most didn't think he'd even have an NFL career.

Dude is one of my all time favorite Vols.

My ex- wife called me 3 months ago and asked me if I would take a kitten, I said yea bring it. She brought me a pretty Orange Tabby kitten and I struggled what to name him.. well after a couple of weeks he stole Cheetos out of a bag I had laying on the chair... Then it hit me, Cheetos is his name.😆
Cheeto is a phenomenal name. Congrats to you both.
 
Can someone explain “direct activation” to me?
It's going to end up in a lawsuit. They are trying to retroactively police NIL deals signed before July 1, that were loading up prior to the new rules and claim those unapproved deals will have to count against their revenue sharing cap, which is already allotted. It's madness. It's going to end up right back in court. You can't do that. You can't limit an athlete's ability to earn $ on their NIL in any way shape or form.

I looked up "direct activation gif" and this is what it gave me......70e8e8aa035d2a11eda155ffa9d21af7-1523518586.gif

*most times there's a gif out there that will explain a phrase, a situation, or a certain "vibe", but this time the "gif search" has let me down. My confusion has gone up substantially.

Fill in the blank: Chris Brazzell II is the best WR to play for the Vols since _____.

I have been asking around and the answers really depend on age. Some people say Hyatt, Robert Meachem, some say Cordarrelle Patterson or Jennings.

My answer is Justin Hunter (Similar size, speed, agility).

For perspective:
  • Brazzell already has 7 TDs in 5 games.
  • On his current pace, he would finish with 17 TDs in a 12 game season.
  • That would break Jalin Hyatt’s single season record of 15 (set in 2022) and would be good enough to tie for 10th all time in program history for receiving TDs in a season.
Statistically Hyatt. Intrinsically I agree with CP or Hunter.
 
That can't be right. All the self-proclaimed football geniuses of VolNation proclaimed before the season started that our entire WR corp was pure garbage.
the WRs were bad last year. Did you seriously see this season from them coming? No you didn’t. It was completely rational to think that the WRs would be bad again. Thank God they have been rReally good so far.

The USCe catch in the end zone never gets old

I absolutely loved watching Robert Meachem… I have never seen someone turn so many curl routes into TD’s.

So we're good at WR compared to last year? LMAO The only returning WR with any true experience is Brazzell

Our wide receivers last year were NOT good, and that is being charitable. We were playing older, but less physically talented guys. We will now be playing younger, less experienced, but more physically gifted guys. We'll see. It could be addition by subtraction like it was with our DB's last year. We have almost no returning production, but let's not pretend that anybody was happy about our WR's last year. They were a massive disappointment.

The primary problem with our WR corp has been that our least talented receivers were the ones that were actually playing the majority of the snaps over the last couple of years because they had been in the system the longest and knew the offense the best. That is no longer the case. The most talented players will be on the field.
 
I'd immediately dump that team. It shows that ownership doesn't give a crap about fans. One of the reasons I'm less passionate about pro sports. But hey, now they can root for the Chiefs.
Yeah, if the Titans left I would move on. I'd have some sentimental love from being a kid watching Eddie George and Steve McNair but there's WAY more bad to remember anyway. Idk who I'd pick as a replacement though lol.

When Atlanta United was started I was a fan of them. When Nashville SC started, I switched.
