Heupel recruiting

Even before NIL came into play, couch Hype and staff still can’t recruit a top five running back or backs???

Going on a long run without having Kamala and Hurd type of running backs, which used to be our bread and butter.

Well, lets look a that. He recruited a running back who broke all of Tennessee running TDs records and was the SEC's offensive player of he year in 2024, and was an All American. Seems like Sampson was a pretty good recruit.

History has shown that this country has only enough elite players to go around for three to four teams to be the elite teams that actually win the playoffs. Those three to four teams have changed throughout the years. Oregon and Texas have now bumped Alabama and Clemson off the perch. For Tennessee to become one of the four they are going to have to recruit/paoch players away from Georgia, Ohio State, Oregon and Texas. I really don't see that happening. When we were one of them in the 90s we were getting players from Georgia and Ohio. But that dried up long ago. Might need to be content being second level.
