Recruits Still Love Tennessee

[VolFreakJosh]

Think about it. These are the same kids that’s witnessed fights and immature tactics in high school.

Do you really think they’re going to be offended by a handful of young college students throwing trash on the field?

If anything, it just shows how passionate we are as a fanbase. We always have our players back.

So the ones saying “it’s going to hurt recruiting”, are simply wrong.

 

[Stonewall83]

No they aren’t….and they werent

If anything they liked the drama

 

[volfanhill]

Always have our players back? That's a joke. Just read a game thread.

 

[SDV]

How come we didn’t get any commits after the visit?

 

[TnVol!]

We will get commits.

Post of the Day!!

TRUTH

 

[MurphyVol]

Boy I sure hope so, were 12th in the SEC with about 7 weeks until early signing day

 

[PNW Huskie]

Laughable. No recruit is going to comment on the morons throwing trash. High-Pull will reel em in or he won't. What happened probably effects recruiting but not a single player is going to admit it. They're a lot classier than the idiots tossing garbage

No way you actually believe this. Lol

No. We will get transfers

 

[PEPPERJAX]

No. We will get transfers

Transfers are a big time priority. New era in college football we are about to witness. I expect Heupel will bring in quite a few.

 

[AdoptedVOL]

Still trying to justify bad behavior?

When my 17 year old Tennessee fan nephew says "that's embarrassing" yes I do. Thinking it has zero impact is foolish. Will it make or break recruits? Unlikely, but it matters if only a little. Better if it didn't happen.

So fanbases who don’t throw stuff at the opposing team doesn’t have their players back? Hmm.

When it comes to terrible officiating, we do.

Some of the recruits have parents that will influence the decisions. What do they think of the display on Saturday? I doubt they think it is an enhancement to the kids development. JMHO

 

[Fightmaker]

All of them told everybody back home “I was there!” every time it came on tv.

We’re one of the few fanbases that cares enough to know when our players bust their a$$ off only to get screwed by terrible officiating.

If I didn’t care, I’d be a Vandy fan.

Thank god for the ignore feature. Never used it in the 4-5 years I've been here until Saturday. The reactions is a perfect example why it's helpful. Don't like to disagree with fellow fans but I'll never accept anyone who marginalized it. Call it what it is, bush league garbage.

Would be interesting to hear the players perspective of you showing your support by throwing projectiles at fans, cheerleaders and on the field.

I bet your nephew is only a 2* recruit.

Agree with this. Hooker, Velus, Evans. They’re making an impact big time

I wasn’t there.

Watched it on the big screen.

However, Heupel and the players already complimented about how passionate the fan base was that night.

Dumb, like that really changes officiating. It was childish behavior like a spoiled brat not getting his way.

But he has a good offer list
