Can't speak to this question directly, but at one time there was a pretty cool thread in The Pub called "My Armory" (or something like that).

All manner of discussion, concerning all manner of firearms. You might want to take a look at it.

Edit: Just went and checked, it's still there and actively posted in. Some pretty cool stuff in there, 3 or 4 guys that seem to know what they're talking about too.

Should be right up your alley :)

We will have 40 4/5* (Rivals) players this season.

The vast, vast majority come from the 2014 and 2015 classes.

The only 4* guys prior to those classes are Pig, North, Peterman (lol), Croom, McNeil, JRM, Maggitt, Sanders, Jackson, and O'Brien. That's including everyone from 2011-2013 who is still here.

If we had landed a coach who was an average recruiter, we would be screwed.

***This^^^ 100% it's always been that way at UT, in Neyland's day they recruited the very best players from all over the country and they must continue to do so if the Vol's are to reach Rocky Top once again.

Volsam, you have me conditioned. My friend posted this pic of her kid on facebook, and my first thought was "I bet volsam could do something with this."

What about the development of Pig and Croom?

Will never understand the Coach Z hate on here

We have had QB issues and major OL issues.. MAJOR

Yes Pig and Croom are his two biggest jobs. The WR blocking is much improved too. A back faster than Lane would've busted more than a few big runs. They hold the edge very well. Mizzou game was the only one I remember them not winning at the point of contact.

Way out in left field question for u guys/gals. Looking for a new semi auto shotgun. Sbe2 or a5 were my final choices. Who has them, shot them or recommends either one or give me another suggestion to look into. Will be using for hunting and skeet shooting. Thanks

I have the classic Remington 1100 I got from an estate sale and love it. When I did my research it drew highest praise as a gun competent at nearly every task from hunting to competition skeet/trap. They have zombie apapocalypse versions too.

Whatever you buy sites like Gunbroker, armslist, or ebang are great places to get deals on used and new. Have bought several guns this way and all were as advertised.

Here is a tactical version if that is what you are after on a site I mentioned.

I have the ducks unlimited version and they are sharp if you find a deal.

Between the 4 horsemen mentioned above.Who is the dirtiest player in the game.The Rick Flair of recruiting.

Ed O is the dirtiest POS on the planet. Forget that he tried to steal recruits from our class basically nuking the program on his way out the door. He also tried to pouch players off of Tulane when the program was in shambles after Hurricane Katrina. I guess I shouldn't mention that the scum bag is also a cocaine snorting, alcoholic as well.

I was looking at recent bama teams and their number of returning starters. 2010 jumps out, when they finished the regular season 9-3 and lost to LSU, SCAR, and auburn. They only returned 10 starters, 2 on defense and 8 on offense. It seems like their situation is even worse for the upcoming year because that team still had McElrory, Ingram, and Julio as upperclassman. The team was still loaded with NFL talent, but the heavy majority were young and untested and it lead to a substandard year based off their recent success.

I definitely think they could have a similar year, and it could be a perfect storm for us to finally get a win in that rivalry.

Bama has to fill several coaching positions this off season as well I believe.

Just my opinion, but if you are going to get into the SBE2 price range I would look at the new Beretta A400 Xtreme. I own an older SBE and I like the action on the Beretta a lot better. Several of my friends have Beretta's and it will definitely be the next gun I purchase.

Also, if you are looking for a good value in a shot gun check out the Franchi's(Benelli owned). They have the same inertia driven semi system that the Benellis have, but for a few hundered dollars less. A couple of guys at my club own them and have never had any issue with them.

You can't beat a classic 1100! I have an old 20 gauge 1100 that I learned to shoot with and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

I have actually been keeping my eye out for an classice 12 gauge in good shape myself. The problem is, people don't get rid of those guns very often once they own one.

Has to be academic-related. No way he gets drafted, but then again, if he runs a 4.35 or something crazy at the combine or pro day, then I'm sure someone like the Raiders will take a chance.
