I thought the CM stats of 11 ppg, etc., came from the lower level league and his top pro league stats were pedestrian. Do I understand that incorrectly?

I have no clue what real NIL #s are and the rumored sums seem to outpace reality at times based on the word of people who seem to know. That being said, $1MM+ for a guy who performed well at Belmont, struggled mightily at UNC when he went up to the P4 even in a bad ACC, and is transferring for...

I think Hurley had a case of arrogance prior to winning his first title and it's just gotten more inflamed since winning B2B titles.

Unless CRB pulls a Norman Dale, "My team is on the floor."

Pretty sure this stat line communicates only that he’s playing competition he and his team severely outclass, after all, football is one of the most team dependent of team sports and who knows if he’s completing 3 yard slants that his WRs are housing. Compare and contrast to George M not putting...

Neyland is great no matter what. I like it best at night but the 3:30 is a close second. Noon is the worst but it's still pretty darn good.

I would take this no questions asked.

UT beats UF 230-0 and eclipses Georgia Tech’s record for most lopsided victory. UF fires Napier at the end of the first quarter, Rob Sale at the end of the second quarter, Austin Armstrong at the end of the third quarter, and Scott Stricklin at the end of the game. 25% of the UF roster quits at...

Cole seems to be influenced by his trips quite a bit. He was all UGA until he visited Knoxville. It was then either UGA or UT until he visited LA and now USCw is running at or near the top. Let's get him into town and sell him on UT being the closest option to home and that options provides him...

No coach is going to land each of their recruiting targets. Garner recruits lights out but still loses his fair share. Not everyone is a fit with Garner. But Garner gets guys who fit and he gets the most out of them. I'll take the ones that want to work with Garner and be fine with losing those...

Week 1 tends to lead to overreactions on the positives and negatives (i.e., Colorado is a juggernaut and Florida is horrible). It's fun to discuss but no one really knows what the season will look like until we get 1/3 of the way or more into the season. Right now, we have no idea if UVA is just...

Jordan Ross + Kellen Lindstrom + Jeremias Heard (but maybe an OT) + Carson Gentle + Danny Okoye + Nasir Smith + Kameryn Fountain (maybe) = fire DL class. Even without one or two of those players, Garner isn't messing around even with some misses on the trail.

I mean, Rodney Garner, a man who is sparing with his praise, said the other day that the DL is beginning to look like a championship team room. We have gotten some highly regarded DL recruits the last three or four cycles but mostly mid-to-low 4*s and some higher regarded 3*s (the two exceptions...

White's success at UT is certainly a byproduct of him knowing what he is doing. But it also shows that UT always had what it takes to be at the pinnacle of college sports, including in AD revenue. That's why all of us Vol fans have been flummoxed as to why UT wasn't more successful in sports all...

Bates would’ve been a great pull from Florida, but our secondary recruiting has been pretty good. Right now, our lack of OTs, edges, and DTs in this class concerns me. Every other position groups, including the secondary without Bates, has been really good.
