Closing the loop. Officially official.

Closing the loop. Officially official.

Hate to see a flip, but we are in pretty good shape at TE and got a commitment form one of the best in the Nation for 2023. I think we are in a very good position at TE for the future.

I only hope we didn’t take his commitment because we have bigger plans…I guess we will find out tomorrow.

Or an embarrassed kid reined in his mother.

I never saw it - what was written by her?

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Sometimes the young men flip because they want to. Other times, they are told they need to look elsewhere due to someone else coming in. Who knows what's going on here. GBO!!

Indiana taking all of our castoffs.

The days of signing a player just to sign one are over. Teams will fill their needs through the portal now

Is it really a "flip," when we told them to go? Just saying.

Sound better for Indiana and nice parting shot at TN.

Yep. They did the same with Sneed. Had my CEO send it to me excited like he actually flipped our commit. I had to let him down easy.

Who cares. Glad he found a great school and good program to continue his education and career with.

If you or your family never experienced signing a scholarship with a school you cant imagine the excitement that is involved in the days leading up to it. To suddenly have that pulled out from under you could be quite the shock. Just because "every school does it" doesnt make it right but the sooner these kids understand its a business, the better I guess cause after signing day it is just that.

Even if you do, there will be some who don’t believe it and will still use it to say this staff can’t recruit.

His mom tore into Tennessee and Huepel on Twitter. I take this a a good sign we needed the roster spot for someone better. Excited for tomorrow to come.

Who cares? It’s all about keeping up the perception that nobody wants to go to Tennessee. So we should actually care. That’s why RC had to correct with a post.

Nobody likes that this happens. But it also happens to coaches who have been promised they will sign with them. It happens to teams and fans whose coach leaves. It happens to coaches, teams and fans when a player goes into the portal. We all just have to move on because that is how it is now.

Not necessarily. It may not have been another commitment that was the reason to process him. It easily could have been wanting more openings to work the transfer portal. And those players don't have to announce anything tomorrow.
