Maurice Hampton was never coming here. We can blame Butch for getting in late, but he had no interest in Tennessee. Some of the others are also Butchs' fault but I know nobody wants to hear that right now.
Instate kids grew up while we sucked New coach. Vandy gold worn more around here at times. The T laughed at in school. Is it easy for you to think something sucks for your whole life, then decide to go join in? Its about development anyway. Raising hell over a 3 from dyersburg and a Californian. 6'2 240 kids all over rhe place. Coach em up.
Pruitt and company were chasing elites. It’s part of the game when you’re trying to get better immediately
It's not usually part of the game to drop from five star guys to zero options or some guy whose next best offer is Georgia Southern. They've got to do better at anticipating these things.
Whiffing on evaluations. He camped last summer and Pruitt didn’t want to offer him. Another assistant did, but he didn’t get his way. Russell was sour he didn’t get the offer out of camp and that’s when we lost him.
Yes I know. Targets who have lived in middle of UT suckage since they first remember watching us play. Sometimes its not easy to reverse a 10 year thought process.
Whining about a missing a 3* from Dyersburg who evidently holds a grudge. Cant believe signing day came and went and we missed out
Tough shite. Not having a problem elsewhere. It’s okay to just say ILB recruiting isn’t panning out this year.
Yes it is. Its also ok to say in state kids have grown up seeing UT suck while other programs have had success, and it makes a difference for some.
Yeah and if we woulda taken a 3* from dyersburg early the ones upset right now would be upset we took a 3* from dyersburg so early.
All anyone is saying is we didn’t address a position of need. We didn’t sign one true inside linebacker in this class. We know you hate West Tennessee kids. It’s fine.
