We can only sell a rebuild for so long. We've been doing that since 2007.

With a bunch of nimrods for coaches that couldn't sustain anything. We at least have someone now that is showing consistent improvement and a promising future, and you can bet that recruits notice that.

exactly....And if you are a defensive player/prospect his track record speaks for itself.

Why is everyone beefin in this thread

One of those weird subjects where it has to be "all or nothing".
Either "they should come here, because they're from here".
Or "we shouldn't expect any of them to like the home team because we've sucked".

Knew the middle ground was a no-no but **** it, I was in a mood.

sounds like whitehead may get left out

Because it’s what’s for dinner?

Yeah Simonton said we’re trending in the wrong direction here.

This!

Kids want to play for winners. These top recruits don't want to play for a 6-6 team when they can play for a team consistently in CFP contention. Our problem is we haven't been consistently good in 15 years. Do the math, these kids are 15-18 years old and all they have to remember is Tennessee being mediocre.

Absolutely. If and when Pruitt and his staff, by virtue of on-the-field performance, can close the enormous public perception (and rankings) gap between Tennessee and Clemson, the Tigers will find it much harder to raid our back yard for marquis prospects.

 

[LA Vol]

The early bird gets the spot. Waiting too long with ESD looming and other guys wanting in can work against those who are indecisive.

Fulmer feasted on SC talent.

 

[Volosaurus rex]

Fulmer feasted on SC talent.

Yes he did. Swinney has done an outstanding job at Clemson, but the fact that we and South Carolina, since Spurrier’s retirement, have been down has made it easier for Clemson to utterly dominate that 4- to 5-hour recruiting footprint.

I hope he doesn't make that mistake

Meh....

Meh....

Things are looking up

Kinda sounds like he's leaving us out

 

[ChiefTKE]

Tennessee kids suck at being Tennesseans..

Maybe the fact that Tennessee football has sucked at being Tennessee football their entire life has something to do with that?

 

[AngryButchJones]

Yeah Simonton said we’re trending in the wrong direction here.

Also said he's not counting out UT, and AP reiterated that it doesn't mean anything is over between Whitehead and UT.

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

I think he commits to UCLA this weekend.

By left out, you mean actually discussing Whitehead in the last 4 pages of this thread?...

 

[BigorangeBoy]

I think he commits to UCLA this weekend.

Would be a horrible decision, CK was almost fired this year. UCLA’s team acts like no one gives a crap whether they win or lose. Reminds me of UT in 2017

 

[johnfnkelly]

I think he commits to UCLA this weekend.

Till he gets there and realizes their stadium is an hour off campus and nobody in LA gives a sh*t about UCLA football.

 

[BJWeeks]

Kelly was also headed to Alabama, in spite of being a legacy, if Dooley had remained the head coach. Another reason I simply do not understand why so many fans hate Butch worse than Dooley.

Because Dooley sucked as a coach and he knew he sucked. Butch sucked as a coach but actually thought he was doing good
