2024 Recruiting Thread

Then it’s the snobbish audacity to think you can directly label and critique people through a message board that is the funniest thing I’ve ever came across on the internet.
Isn’t saying “NV” to other Tennessee fans labeling and critiquing? Like I told you yesterday, I call out hypocrites.
 
I’m far from confused. But again, you folks think you know everything single thing.
Then it’s the snobbish audacity to think you can directly label and critique people through a message board that is the funniest thing I’ve ever came across on the internet.

And I take nothing but pride and joy in seeing you show how flawed of human beings you truly are to take a message board to this level personally.

Normal people agree to disagree and move on. You folks will try to relentlessly attack posters simply because they have a different opinion than you do.

Now for the situation about recruiting, so there were 6 runner-ups?
Last time I checked there were 7 teams in the mix right? Secondly, do you truly believe that with the transfer portal Tennessee will not fill the holes in this roster once the season is over?
You don’t know who is getting into the transfer portal until the season is close to the end.
I don’t get what you all don’t understand.
I mean Tennessee signed Kaniya Boyd and Talaysia Cooper for the upcoming season both young players with 3 and 4 years of eligibility so it’s ridiculous to think they can’t add young talent out of HS and the transfer portal.
I wouldn’t leverage a starting position, or pay to play in order to sign any player.
Some of you all would prefer them to do anything though.
Tennessee beat Vandy already with their roster this season and this player doesn’t tip the scale for you to state ignorance that the team was runner up on a recruit when Tennessee has signed players already in that position who will or can be better for this team.
All I hope Tennessee does next season is schedule a Vandy, LSU, and Texas A&M type of schedule and get their 2025 recruits to early enroll.

Do you see LSU fans making posts every time a HS player doesn’t sign? Their only HS recruit right now is a Top #90 recruit.
Texas A&M? Ole Miss? Louisville?

I can’t wait until next season when the LVs play the type of schedule that gets rewarded and enters the SEC undefeated with Spear, TK, Coop, Kaniya, Ace, the Big 4 Seniors, our transfer portal additions and beat Vandy as usual but watch you on these threads talking about how you wish we had player such and such on our team when they finish the game with 5pts, 3rebs, 2assists, and 1steal in 27 mins lol.
But let you folks tell it I’m the one confused lol. Man you people got it too good.
I hope one day you guys see the team put together your way and can be satisfied smh.
So you speculating again…seems about right given the history.

C'mon, man: LSU won the national championship last year. We haven't even been to a Final Four in going on 20 years.. And we're not A&M
or Ole Miss: We're Tennessee--eight national titles. If you can't leverage 8 national titles when recruiting, then you're a lousy recruiter/recruiting staff.

Sad you actually believe that nonsense..

I think Winner's Circle might be related to, or associated with, someone with our program. That would explain the very aggressive
defense of our recruiting and our roster--best ever! we could win four straight national titles!--and hostility to those who point out our recruiting/roster issues.

What nonsense? That eight national titles should be a help in recruiting? Yea, and what exactly are Virginia Tech, Indiana, Iowa, North Carolina and 15 other schools that are out-recruiting us doing to wow recruits? Let's ask a selection of recruiters if they'd rather try to sell kids on our program, with our tradition--or no tradition or titles at all. Has a long stretch of mediocrity diminished our cachet as a program? Yes, I suspect it has--but I'm quite sure most coaches and their recruiters would happily trade places.

Yer hanging a hat on a victory over Vandy? Hmmm. Really?

I just noticed something for the fans on here that actually think the SEC fan club on Twitter and those SC fans don’t try to paint Tennessee in a negative way and have been a part of the negative recruiting against Tennessee.
All those SC fans in the SEC fan club have been boosting up Vandy all year.. and discrediting the entire Tennessee team with the exception of one player.
Yesterday, Tennessee beats Vandy and they don’t say a word about the outcome.
Vandy gets one recruit the next day and all a sudden they are speaking again about Vandy and Tennessee in the same sentence.
Like Tennessee didn’t just sign a former 5-star G from the transfer portal with 3 years of eligibility and has a 4-star G early enrollee on campus.
They haven’t mentioned a word about Kaniya Boyd who is in the same league with Blakes. At one point Blakes was ranked 20-30. Once players consider certain schools and play in certain AAU tourneys under certain coaches and accept camp invites they jump up the rankings. The ones who don’t drop. It’s a simple process and why I couldn’t care less about the difference between a 4 and 5 star player.
But it’s wild to see how folks will say anything out of context to try to push the narrative against Tennessee.

..yer paranoid, bro 😎

I’m not your bro. You can tell when someone is speaking facts. Like I said, players in the same league

#21 Blakes
#25 Boyd

One player the SC fans in the SEC fan club on Twitter made a big deal on Twitter today about their announcement with an irrelevant comparison between Tennessee and Vandy.

The day Tennessee beat Vandy and they were silent.

What the heck that got to do with being paranoid.. you folks can’t stand when the fake love and sneak dissing gets exposed.

Well you tell me.. what’s the difference between #21 and #25?
What changed? Kaniya Boyd led her team to a 5A State Championship as a Junior. Won 5A Las Vegas Defensive Player of the Year.

How did her rankings drop and another player just 4 spots ahead move all the way up to #10? Recruiting services don’t rate all players equally that’s all I’m saying.. so in this case all I’m saying is if we’re going to give one school (Vandy) credit for signing their player then do the same thing for the other school (Tennessee).
Is that right or wrong?
