    Congratulations may be in order, 8th friends. Far as I can tell, the site has made it this far without a "Will aTm to the SEC hurt our chances with Santos?" thread. Hear, hear.

    By comparison, TOS has a 'Santos is 100% vol' thread stickied to the top of their forum for constant assurance, and TOOS has started God knows how many Santos threads.

    For full disclosure, the Santos thread I started was one of my favorite moments in my brief time over there. The day we thought the SEC was blocking aTm, I started a thread suggesting that this may be a huge tactical error by the SEC, swinging Santos back to aTm because he'll see it as a sign of disrespect to his home state. I think the logic hit a little too close to home, as folks were pretty riled up about what a dumbass i was.

    New article on Santos: Dalton Santos will bring his swagger to UA All-America Game - ESPN

    On his commitment to the Vols, "I'm strong with it. I love it up there," Santos said. "It's different from here, somewhere I can step out and grow as a person and a player. I love challenges, and this will be something different in my life. I'm solid there."

    Santos will add some much need physicality to this team. Heck, McNeil and Autry are some mean SOBs too.

    Yep, I love it. I want some angry mofo's out there trying to tear people's heads off. Make them think twice about crossing over the middle to catch that ball. There's some chatter on TOOS that Autry may be announcing soon. Unknown date/destination.

    Anyone concerned about speed at linebacker or do we have some other guys coming in that can provide that?

    Maggit has it, Lathers has it, AJ will be fine in the middle (and it appears he's playing a lot faster now), Peters seems to read and react very well, Henderson and King are both better athletes than LBs right now and Santos will be fine as a two down LB.

    As for the others, King had it but has been through a few knee injuries and Crump is fast. The rest are not.

    Good to hear Groves. I just hear all of the "we're getting bigger and sacrificing speed to do so" talk. Weather Dooley sticks or not, the roster is in much better shape than he found it.

    I think Bowles is a possibility at LB.

    Maybe but I think he'll be a jumbo safety

    I would go on a homicidal rampage if I thought it would somehow help the situation. I am so [uck fay]ing sick of everything turning to shit all the time with this team.

    TAMU is in just as shitty a situation as Tennessee is in.

    I think we get Santos if we keep Sirmon and Wilcox.

    Thanks for sharing GV2003. Sounds like he's ready to go...

    If he can be a consistent two down run plugger, I'll be happy. If he turns into anything more than that, it will be great.
