If we are right, this site is going to explode this season. All of the FB/BB and baseball fans will be dropping in. I expect it will get busy again around here Chuckie. Just give it a little time, they all remember which team at UT has the most championships and once it starts rolling again they will jump on the wagon.

Maybe not, the football drive bys only tend to show-up when thins are not going well and hopefully, that does not happen this season. Since CKC is a White hire, I don't think they will even be that "bashy" even after a loss. I suppose they could drop to say something nice but that would be very out of character.

As soon as there's a loss, the buzzards will show up to pick at the carcass. Circle of life on big orange planet. They circle areas where people care, because annoying people who have some passion IS their sport.

Speaking sympathetically, they're usually people who early on "learned" that the only way people would acknowledge them or take them seriously was if they attacked what was important to them. Often are middle child males who grew up with a 3-4 years older sister and a baby sister.

I'd suggest not engaging them in debate or substance, only replying with laughter or laughing emojis. Not out of hate, but by cutting off their sociopathic reward, encouraging them to reassess, mature, and find reconciliation with the world. Otherwise, theirs is the loneliest life. (Or the most face-punched, if they step out from behind their avatars and act that way in real life.)

Chuck, once you get to the pros it is different. Dak was never close to the best QB in the NFL, but the Cowboys made him so monetarily because they could not easily replace him. Timing is everything in the pros, when a contract is coming due, the good players have leverage which is not the case in college ball in the absence of contracts except for those cases (to a much lesser degree) where a player is choosing a school or transferring.

Dak got paid what the Market Value is at the moment, same for Cee Dee Lamb.

Next off season Micah Parsons will set the bar for Defensive players.

Why does everyone pick on my Dallas Cowboys 👀👀

Some of that is a team that hasn't been consistently winning in the playoffs for 25 plus years and is still talked about non stop in the media. Easy to pick on.

I’ve been watching Deniya film and she is smooth like butter and so athletic. She reminds me a little of Rae Burrell. Very quick and a little lanky at 6’1” truly a wing/guard but with length and speed that will suit our new system perfectly.

One of my only regrets is that the twins won’t get a year to play with Spencer. I love Spencer’s game so far, she would have been such a great mentor for them. Glad she’s pouring in to Keniya and Coop while she’s here.

Coop reminds me the most of Jordy. Just a crazy athlete, makes really difficult things look easy. I think she has a better mental approach to the game though. Horston is still struggling with that in the W.

Deniya Prawl is the best pure scorer in the wing position that I’ve seen come out of HS since the superstar former LV Rickea Jackson!

She’s an elite three level scorer.
Gets it done on both ends of the floor.
A defensive stopper.

It’s a reason 247Sports rated Prawl as the #6 prospect in the 2025 class. She’s a consensus 5-star Wing and future McD-All-American. Welcome to Rocky Top!
GBO!
