There is nothing wrong with the kid in general. It doesn't seem to be a character issue like Boo. By all accounts he has a great relationship with Pope and Heup. And he and Keys are pretty close. He just wants to go to OSU. The most likely outcome is that we simply release him from his LOI.

I said I like Bishop and mentioned he was solid. It's a fact that the RB room outside of Bishop was not good. Even when Lewis was healthy, he didn't perform very well. Morris and Baker didn't get much work but they didn't exactly tear it up when given the opportunity and they weren't super...

Not according to this article: http://knoxnews.com/story/sports/college/university-of-tennessee/football/2025/04/10/desean-tennessee-football-scholarship-walk-on/82795823007/ Bishop was committed to Coastal Carolina for his entire 2022 senior season. He hoped for a scholarship offer from a...

There was reportedly screenshot where he said he wasn't gonna sign with Tennessee. And 247 is reporting some "sources" are saying he is unhappy with his decision. It doesn't really jive with other reports though.

I didn't say Bishop was bad or mediocre. I said he was solid but he lacked SEC speed, which is true and it's part of the reason he didn't have any P4 offers. I certainly want to keep Bishop but we also need to go back to the 3 headed monster at RB like we had with Wright, Sampson, and Small...

Lewis was mediocre. Morris and Baker are unproven and were not exactly highly rated recruits. 3 Bishop was solid, but he lacks SEC speed. There is zero chance anyone watched this group of RBs play this year and thought it was a major strength for us.

I would be astounded if we don't add a RB in the portal. The RB group was super mediocre this year and banking on Morris or Baker to be SEC caliber backs is foolish. Bishop was solid. Not great, but very solid. No one else is returning that seems like a starting caliber RB.

USC is better than any win Vandy has. And both of ND's losses were in extremely close games that came down to the wire vs 2 top 12 teams. Vandy pretty much got dominated by a 2 loss Bama team. Then a 3 loss Texas team smacked them around for them for 3 quarters, although it ended up close in...

Zero chance he was ever going to start. So not surprised.

He took 4 last year, with 2 of them being highly ranked. So maybe he is adapting.

Still averaging over 9 wins a season without him, including a playoff berth. He's certainly still something.

Lack of Schollie's is not an excuse. It's a fact. We self imposed SIXTEEN schollies between 2021 and 2022 alone. That is pretty massive. And what a way to cherry pick. The 2022 class was ranked 23rd on 247. That's a far cry from 14. And again, we lost our starting QB in April. We lost our AA...

Money isn't the only factor. There aren't a ton of HC opportunities that come along for coordinators. If he has HC aspirations, it would be difficult for him to down the opportunity, not knowing if he'll get another HC offer from a FBS school. If the money is the same (more likely it would be a...

Lashlee is not a better option than Dabo my guy. I could see Lanning as he is still ascending where as Dabo has plateaued. Of course the main reason Dabo has plateaued is his archaic views on the portal and NIL. If he isn't willing to change in that regard, than for sure he won't be the HC at...

We've moved on. Technically Boo hasn't because he still hasn't entered his name in the portal, lol.
