Somebody go post that scout article in that thread whatever it was called orange and white game failure or did we strike out at the orange and white game.

"I made my decision after the spring game," Brown said. "That's when I knew Tennessee is where I wanted to be. They have a great opportunity for me there, and I have a chance to compete early."

I also wonder if X is going to call into Basilio and explain how our O-line coach just can’t reel in the big fish.

From 4/12:
Since the staff was finalized, I openly questioned whether Butch Jones assembled a staff with enough recruiting horsepower to win the big recruiting battles for SEC caliber prospects especially offensive and defensive lineman. There is nothing in the past that indicates the position coaches primarily responsible for recruiting these two positions are up to it.

I wonder if “1st pick of the NFL Draft” woud be considered a recruiting win?

I usually don’t give a flip what happens over there. But that just chaffed me. Especially doubting Stripling.

"I went up there for the first time on a Junior Day," Brown said Thursday, "and it was just the best thing I've ever experienced." "I can trust the coaching staff, the players, the faculty," Brown said. "It's somewhere I feel like I'm loved, and I love it.

Brown said he's lost 110 pounds over the last three years, transforming himself into a new kind of lineman. "I'm a lot more mobile," he said. "I feel like my pass protection is better, my run blocking. I feel like I can move a lot better. "I'm down to 340 now. It's just been changing my diet, understanding my body."

"When the players are recruiting, it definitely helps a lot," Brown said. "That helped me. I wasn't even going to come up for a visit to Tennessee. "But I heard their facilities were good, they had a good coaching staff, so I thought I'd give it a shot."

Payne, one of the Vols' five 4-Star prospects, committed to Tennessee in early April.

"We call each other blood brothers, but that's my Godbrother," Brown said. "His dad grew up with my dad and I grew up with D'Andre when I was in D.C. We've just always been like brothers, always hung around a lot. "I've never had the opportunity to play with him, but I'm excited. I'm excited to be part of a family and have family there with me."
