    I imagine we are getting the majority of these guys listed. Will be better than any class Butch signed.

    Crouch and Wright alone are going to make it go way up.

    Is this realistic though?

    Also a good sign that Urban offered him after he camped there last week.

    He just might not like things not handed to him. I can't get two images out of my head from the season opener last year. JG looking like he was sulking on the sideline and that stupid trash can.

    We supposedly lead for both.

    Butch Jones told everyone what they wanted to hear. This staff actually has an honest approach, people are told reality and know what to actually expect. Completely different approaches and we will see the results.

    We'll see. I hope it's a Lyle Allen thing.

    Butch’s classes that were rated high were rated high because of inflated numbers. We would take 30 commits and 12 would transfer.

    This will be the best top to bottom class we have signed since the Fulmer era. Good talent, good coaching, remedy for success.

    Finding a "remedy for success" sounds like the job description of anyone hired in the UT AD over the past 10+ years. Hopefully that's ending here.

    Lane Kiffin would have killed it here. After him we hired 2 of the dumbest mother [uck fay]ers that wasted 8 years of everyone’s life.

    I still stand by the idea that it’s not hard to recruit here, and if you know shit about coaching it’s not difficult to win. Butch posted back to back 9 win seasons and was the biggest imposter in college football.

    Absolutely. Just about any P5 school can win, certainly Tennessee can (and should) do it. You’re a head coach away from being dominant or doormat.

    In the last decade we’ve seen Clemson, Auburn, Oregon in the national championship game. Washington and Michigan State made a playoff. Mississippi State has been ranked #1 nationally.

    This idea that Tennessee can’t be a power again is just stupid.

    Wilhoite committed to Oregon. I believe that means Knox is our guy.

    Knox and Keyton will be Mossing people.

    Would like to add Boobie Curry or a quick slot guy too.

    Did we miss or not want Wilhoite badly? Or does Pruitt prefer players that face competition each week. 6'3 kid but probably hasnt had to battle a D1 db in his HS career.

    Talent is talent. You either have it or you don't.

    I definitely think that is the plan. Knox and then a slot type guy.
