Things obviously weren't clicking on all cylinders for UT this year... but I've never seen a team sustain more "important" injuries than UT has. Literally, 4 of 5 of their best defensive players had injuries this year... OLine injuries all year... Kamara was out a couple weeks... It's really unfortunate. How many total injuries did bama have this year? 1?
So I get it... they have a great defense... but UMASS, Kentucky, and North Texas?
I mean... I guess it's a burn? I don't really get it. We haven't been favored to win the East since like 04'... We're 3-0 this year just like Florida... No one is to blame except the media for hyping Tennessee.
Give me Tennessee's healthy backfield over UGAthens banged up backfield every day of the week. And they're probably about the same even when both are healthy.
List of Tennessee's rivals by importance 1) Alabama 2) Florida 3) Georgia 4) South Carlina 5) Vanderbilt/Kentucky 19 of Vandy's 30 victories happened before 1927. It's a cute in state game but, from a Tennessee fan's perspective, call it whatever the heck you want.
General Neyland never lost to Paul Bryant
With him living in Florence, AL I'd say there's more pressure around him to go to Alabama than to make the leap to Tennessee. His family will support his decision no matter what, however those in the community will chastise him. He's also growing up in bammer's "Golden Age" so I'm sure he doesn't share the same connection to Tennessee that his dad, brother, & uncle do.
I follow recruiting closely and this is honestly the first I've heard of him... I don't know if Butch Jones had the "full court press" on. I'm not dissing Keaton and I'm not saying Tennessee is "above" bammer in recruiting, but sounds like to me it was never an option from the beginning. I'm surprised Saban offered.
Mike Farrell (one of the lead recruiting directors at Rivals) just tweeted out that both his mom and dad want him to go to UT, but that Adoree prefers the Gators. He currently lives in California with his sister, but his family is from Chicago. So USC is definitely not out of this. Ultimately, I think it's between Tennessee, Florida, & USC... If Adoree himself prefers Florida, then I would tell the kid to go where he wants and choose the Gators, but often times in these tight recruitments family can play a big role... and this is why Tennessee is still a major player. I hope he's a Vol, but my guess would be Florida.
Auburn is 25-1 all time when Quarterbacked by a player that committed a crime at another SEC school. #WarEagle
What's funny is that we could sign 35 this year and we still wouldn't have the full of 85 scholarship players like the rest of the SEC. Thanks Kiffin and Dooley. You guys were the best.
Agreed, I'm sure coaches like Saban hate this new rule... They want to be able to depart with a recruit whenever they want.
Can't make us any worse, that's for sure.
If he wants to go to heaven then he'll commit to Butch and the Vols.
Da'Shawn Hand just publicly admitted he doesn't believe in God.
Lauderdale will be a player, but he is a JUCO with 2 years of eligibility. Normally you get ONE good year out of a good JUCO because he's adjusting to the current system (aside from freaks like Cordarrelle Patterson). If losing Lauderdale means landing Malone, then I'll take that trade 10 times out of 10... I would still love to keep commits, but after an electric weekend which happened to be our biggest recruiting weekend of the year I think we'll be fine.
