OMG the recruiting hit

[carolinaviking]

Prepare yourselves for a few more years of watching top recruits go to Ohio State, Michigan, Texas and yes, still Alabama. For a brief, glorious moment, I believed the hype. I thought we were on the cusp of building a dynasty à la Nick Saban or Bear Bryant. But Tennessee will always be the Penn State of the SEC; inconsistently competitive, usually losing to the two or three big dogs in the conference, and throwing in an ugly loss to a team we're supposed to beat. If we are to keep our big commits and reel in a few more, there will be no room for mistakes; we will have to beat both UGA and Bama, and UF, too. And then make a deep run in the playoffs.

With all due respect, this is just silly lol
A loss to Arkansas made you come to this conclusion? Every team, besides Texas, has a L right now. Winning matters but tradition, NIL, NFL opportunity does too. Tennessee will be fine.

Recruits aren’t gonna flip because we loss a game. It was a terrible loss but slow down. A lot of teams loss to teams they shouldn’t have today. Team still had a chance to respond. Be pissed but don’t say stuff that makes you come across as uneducated in the heat of the moment.

Conversely, maybe blue chip recruits will see this as an opportunity to come in and help fix the deficiencies on the UT football team and get some early playing time.

Look on the bright side.
We may still lose recruits to Alabama but they got a coach now that loses to Vandy.
Looks like Kirby and maybe Sark are the only ones in the SEC that won’t lose to at least one bum every year

If this was true, we wouldn’t have had any recruits the last 2 decades…

So they’re not going to come here due to losing to Arkansas but they’ll go to Alabama who just lost to Vanderbilt. Yeah, sure, that logic checks out. Not.

OP probably knows nothing about recruiting.
