I liked Dre Kirkpatrick's announcement, real classy.

Come on guys, he wasn't that bad. The subtitles just made it a lot worse. You could at least understand what he was saying.

Will probably be flamed, but with orange glasses both on and off, this guy should be a Tennessee Volunteer. Maybe they're on more than I think they are, but I'm to the point where I don't care about being a homer for a few minutes. Bryce Brown was a fantastic surprise, but I honestly don't think many people here worry much about us recruiting good solid running backs with our lineage. We are going to really love Bryce, but we would've been okay even if he didn't come. Right now at least, there is no light on the other side of the tunnel at the QB position. It's extremely dim.

If he signs with the USC Trojans, the chances of him playing collegiate football is minimal.

If he signs with the Florida Gators, I'll just be sick to my stomach.

If he signs with Tennessee, he quickly becomes nearly as important as Ed Orgeron, Eddie Gran, Frank Wilson, or anyone else in that staff meeting room to the future of the 2010 recruiting class. His chance to play collegiate football is much, much higher. His father can still watch him play on television, screaming at the TV as his son becomes intangled in the actual gameplay of SEC Football games week after week. Maybe he can even come see him play 1-2 times a year. And in no way is this an indictment of Jesse's ability, but playing QB at the University of Southern California seems nearly as political as it is a skilled competition. His dad could visit all 20+ home games in his son's time at the school and never once see him throw a pass, never once watch him run out onto the field with 10 other guys in a meaningful game situation.

It just makes too much sense.

Did Kirkpatrick really put on an Atlanta Braves hat so that he could announce he was going to bama? :crazy:

Guys (and Gals)...this is coming together perfectly. Tomorrow this is going to go down...

Setting: SEC Media Days

Urban Meyer: Thanks for having us here. We are really excited about our team this year, about the seniority, about our leadership. We have some great quality guys here at the University of Florida (everyone in the room chuckles). This off-season we have really been hitting the recruiting trail. We are excited about some of the new players that will be coming in and helping us this next year. We have a great QB and Heisman Trophy winner in Tim Te....

Rece Davis: We are going to interupt this broadcast to take you immediately to the announcement of Espn 150 QB Jesse Scroggins from Lakewood, CA...

Jesse: It has been a difficult decision...Blah Blah Blah Blah (20 minutes of Blah)...I'm a Volunteer!

Rece Davis: Ok! Good news for the Vols and for head coach Lane Kiffin. It looks as if Tennessee has their man! Now let's go back to Urban Meyer at SEC Media Days...

Urban Meyer: So that's about it. It was good to meet with you, thanks for your questions, and we look forward to this year.

We probably are the best playing option, but right now it's going to be very hard for us to compete with a team that can say it currently has 3 qbs (2 starting, another the next in line on a team that went to the super bowl and a first round pick, and then recently one pretty much given the starting reins to an NFL team - really only b/c of one good game and the rest of the qb class opting to stay an extra year) in the nfl, has players in the heisman race year in and out, and that can market how you can go to the school, ride the bench four years, throw only 130 yards and an int in your career, and still end up as a starting qb in the nfl.

It's almost a "hey, no matter what you do here, the league's going to like you" and that's very hard to compete with

Yesterday all the news was he was expected to pick USC. Are we back in it now? Or has UF stolen the show? The gators are the FIRST school logo on his site followed by UT, then USC. What "changed" for you Jesse? The school you selected or the time of the annoucement? Both?

I don't like the argument that he should come to Tennessee because of USC's loaded depth chart in front of him.

I don't want a quarterback who doesn't think that he can beat out anyone, or at the very least, would somehow shrink from the challenge by going elsewhere.

Jesse Scroggins is a Vol.

Or it could be the same scenario except that it might look like this:

Rece Davis: We are going to interupt this broadcast to take you immediately to the announcement of Espn 150 QB Jesse Scroggins from Lakewood, CA...

Jesse: It has been a difficult decision...Blah Blah Blah Blah (20 minutes of Blah)...I'm a dumb Florida gator!

Rece Davis: Ok! Good news for the you Urban. It looks as if Florida has another person to ride the pine and that has been lied to by Urbie! Now let's go back to Urban Meyer at SEC Media Days...

Urban Meyer: So that's about it. I just wanted to stick it to Lane Kiffin because I am still hurt about how he talked about me when the Nu'Keese thing went down.

Not how I want it to play, but that could be a scenario seeing how it coincides with Urban's time slot.

I don't know but the announcement change probably had something to do with ESPN's schedule... rather than him just changing his mind.

Gators logo on the left, UT in the middle and USC on the right....... got me thinking.

In olympics The gold medal winner is in the middle with silver and bronze on each side.

Hell I'm just looking for signs.
