GI Joe and then we are talkin..

Great American hero?

I would love to be a fly on the wall listening to his conversation with Riley Fergusen this weekend. No doubt the memphis coaches will make sure that happens

Riley hung around Tom Smith, who was basically doing nothing but failing class and smoking weed, which I have no problem with but the NCAA does. Every time I saw Riley and Tom both of their eyes were red as the devils d!ck. He made his own bed and just flat out pissed his chance away here at UT, which is sad because he was more talented than any QB on roster while he was here.
 
As long as you are talking the 12" action figure, not the 3 1/2" hard plastic crap. IMO that was the beginning of the fall of American Society right there.

Dude I had all the 12" GI joe action figures, and jeep and battle tank and some other accessories. I loved me some playing war when I was a kid. That is pretty much all I wanted for Christmas from 2-5th grade.

What hurts worse? Stubbing your pinky toe or stepping on 3-4 of those little green army men in bare feet. Yikes!!!

Getting beaten up by the 23 year old high school senior neighborhood bully. :pinch:

There was an article in the CA earlier this year where Riley basically said the same thing. He said everything that went wrong at UT was his own fault.
 
First, Reilly has taken full responsibility for his immaturity at UT. He regrets his mistakes. He had no bad words about UT or anybody associated with UT. Anyone inferring it is just another silly fan either ignorant of the truth or just loves to cause drama.

He is very skilled but had some adjustments to make. Our OL was very young and didn't help him out early. By the end of the season his junior year looked very similar to Paxton Lynch junior year. He still needs to work on a quicker release and some footspeed. Most of the offense returns next year and some very talented new blood will be there to help out also. OL and WR both gave bigger and better ready to step in. We just hope Miller comes back for one more run.

We are in good shape at QB with or without McBride. We have two very talented red shirts and more recruits on the way. We certainly want him but recruiting is in much better shape under first Fuente and now.

If Will ends up choosing UT I wish him all the luck and good fortune.

I really like Bubba Thompson out of Alabama, but he scares me too much with the potential to bounce to MLB in the summer.

It wouldn't be so bad, but we've already missed on our top 3 prospects for 2018, so this 2017 QB really needs to have a legitimate shot at being "the guy" in a few years. You have no guarantee that the 2018 QB will be talented enough, with the top shelf guys off of the market already.

"Texas quarterback Will McBride, who is committed to Memphis is leaving his visit to the Tigers this morning and heading to Knoxville for today to see the Vols.

McBride is a mid-term prospect and will see the Vols last before the dead period starts at midnight tonight.

The other three official visitors leave this evening."

Wonder if they'll be treated even better in Knoxville this afternoon? :)
 
Screenshot_9.pngNot impressed - offer list is really lacking - Vols competing with the likes of Memphis, Purdue, Bowling Green.......

Not sure why he's making the trip after all the bad things he heard about UT from Ferguson this weekend. Makes me question his judgement, maybe we should pass.

I remember a 6 ft QB from TX that went to Purdue and turned out to be pretty good. Not saying he is the next Brees, but he looks good enough to me.
