only 2 hours of waiting left?

I think this board just needs to accept that this guy is not going to announce and you will see his name appear in the Tennessee directory early next week and that will be all you get.

This makes me think an announcement must be in the plan at some point:

This jersey swap edit is…

The remaining 2 hours is on a rolling basis.

well...

This is such a strange scenario - all indications are that Heard is in the boat and all the usual talking heads are cheering it as a done deal.

Yet, we are so conditioned to see a “commitment graphic” released by the player himself that - absent such a graphic - none of us can quite feel comfortable celebrating this.

This is some Pavlovian-level stuff here

Even though he didn’t post a graphic when he committed to LSU and hasn’t made a post on social media in almost two years. Strange indeed.

95 mins till BOOM

I'm 50% sure that I'm 95% sure this is happening

He signed sec papers he can’t go to any other SEC school but Tennessee

O/U is 0.5 IMO

Bet the under.

I am not the gambler talk type man. This means literally nothing to me.

personally, I can only create so many eggcellent posts a day.

Sometimes it’s best to go over easy on your thoughts so as to not scramble the brain.

It's predictable now--the early afternoon lull.

Suspect folks have just grown weary of the same joke repacked and offered up over and over and over...as nauseum for over 200 pages? Just wondering.

 

[dascoop]

Hayes is just waiting on the go

Had a Coondog that would bark on the trail all day and all night but never treed.

And I’m fine with that. Go Vols

Dang, the antsies is strong.

I think that’s how all xfers should be. These kids doing a hat ceremony every year they change schools is ridiculous imo. And yes I’m old and I water hose kids off my lawn

They ceremony and the announcement are important recruiting tools though unfortunately. They get the school
Mentioned across the media and create the all important impression that Tennessee is a happening place. Heard just showing up at Spring practice unannounced does nothing to bring in anyone else

But, the bills have Franklin's picture on them and not Saban's.

I think you overvalue the impact a few positive tweets has about recruiting momentum. Heard is coming here. That isn't a secret. And other players that you'd want to bring in I'm sure know Heard is coming here, too. Seeing Hayes Fawcett tweet out a jersey swap edit isn't convincing a kid that Tennessee is "the move" and changing anything.
