The problem is that even with Keys, we will still be 4-6 in SEC recruiting.
That ain't good enough. Ceiling at that rate is 9 wins with a 10 win season every 3-4 years depending
on our schedule.
Judas Priest. Eat something. Maybe some goldfish or dry Cheerios.If anyone cares about taking the next step, these are the type of recruitments & players you need to start winning out on.
Again, if you're content with going 8-4 to 10-2 every year with an occasional playoff berth then I can see why a lot of you defend every recruiting miss.
When you're in a holding pattern for 3-4 years with nothing improving while asking the fans to choke up more cash at every turn, don't be surprised when people complain.
The Adidas deal made a ton of sense on the surface, however if it doesn't result in better recruiting then the move from Nike is moot and unnecessary from a performance standpoint.
If you're good with school admin lining their pocket without substantial roster investment & improvement, then you'll sleep just fine at night.
going to the playoffs was nice, but i think the better barometer is actually competing with teams like bama, georgia and florida at their building.If anyone cares about taking the next step, these are the type of recruitments & players you need to start winning out on.

Not sure where you're getting that none of these things are happening financially. That's part of the problem here. People go on these rants without doing their due diligence as to what is actually going on within the program. We offered a sizable NIL package here. To the point that us and Michigan priced out UGA and Ohio State. People complain because they are miserable with themselves. Most of the people whining about the prices going up don't even attend the games. Kinda like you taking a shot at the Adidas deal that was announced about a week ago. You're already making an assessment on its impact before anything has had the proper time to be evaluated. People like you will never be pleased and nor should anyone try to please you.
I'll take that. 9 win seasons with a 10 win season every few years. Sign me up.
And for those who don't think its good enough, I have 3 words for you -
Dooley, Butch and Pruitt
Darnell Wright had a good year last year. Has had some consistency issues during the offseason/preseason that I hope gets cleaned up.I think this is it unfortunately... It would be nice for Thorton, Tillman, Sampson, etc. to have good years. Hell, I thought Darnell Wright was a slam dunk but he is struggling too.
Really wanted Hiter. I still think this one goes down to signing day. I don't think Michigan will be very good this year. It will be a rude awakening when their fanbase realizes 5 star QB recruits don't just magically dominate college football as freshman.
I think Hiter was guided toward choosing Michigan becuase of the RB performances under Harbaugh. Sherron Moore is a different coach though. I don't think this year will be as kind to him though. Going to be alot of pressure too if they also lose to Ohio State.
Vol fans need to keep calm. Show love and be patient. Heupel will prove once again this year that his scheme produces for RBs.
Never fall for this one. Kids and their handlers are savvy about hiding the trail on social media.He just followed Tennessee Football along with Volscoops so could be a good sign fellas![]()
I would say prepare to be shocked, but I can already tell you don't pay enough attention for that to happen.going to the playoffs was nice, but i think the better barometer is actually competing with teams like bama, georgia and florida at their building.
regarding Adidas, i'll be shocked if it actually has any sort of impact on football recruiting
Would have been nice to have another quality RM, but we have 4-5 who can compete with anyone. RB is one of our strongest positions this year.Really wanted Hiter.

I thought he was waiting on the Michigan ruling. When they skated on all the cheating then that was it. Don't mind having a little less talent to have higher character quality. OH well, GBO!
Yeah, you're pretty clueless on this one too. So you can take the condescending tone on how 'recruiting' works (as if you have it all figured out) and take it back to your Connor Stallion board and discuss your upcoming 4 loss season.Never fall for this one. Kids and their handlers are savvy about hiding the trail on social media.
In the "old days" kids would try to throw the media off the scent by showing up in the school they weren't picking gear.
This one had been done way back in April. ON3 did a great job of milking it for hits. Feel bad for the Vol fans.
Not if they lose to Ohio State. But, now that I look at their schedule, it is a joke! Despite playing an extra conference game, Michigan only plays one top 25 BIG 10 team, Ohio State. Their only other tough game is against Oklahoma. Everyone else is a joke..Eh if Michigan goes 8-4 this year they’ll be happy bc they’re gonna be starting a true Fr QB.
