Notre Dame is having a mass exodus from their OL room. They must hate their OL coach. Clearly a staff fail. Pathetic.

Can you imagine the chaos if all of our offensive linemen were in the portal?

Clearly Spyre the Catholic Church is broke and not able to afford a championship calibre team

Surprisingly a nice message board. Probably the best I've seen, outside of VolNation.

Well, Marcus Freeman has shown he is unwilling to fire his buddies so don't expect any staff changes.

 

[MarcoVol]

They were deep. No longer

Played in a NC game and losing all their depth but posters here will still complain about our depth on our OL

 

[therickbol]

Whole OLine portaling. Did they lose a position coach? Everyone looking for paydays?

Rumor is that Elarbee is taking the ND OL job. Weezer spammed all the current ND OL with a scathing indictment of the terror of playing for such an inept OL coach. Now we are seeing the fallout.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

We are never going to play an OL we recruited out of high school lol

We have one of the worst OL coaches in the sport and everyone sees it. Fortunately for him hes close buddies with the right people.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

2 groups ND is great at evaluating is OL and DBs

Notre Dame getting stuffed in a locker

Tennessee has reached an agreement, in perpetuity, to allow their OL coach to develop our OL for us. Until a time that we see fit to send them home to TN. Killerbee has said this is part if his new 'relaxation' style.

That’s what happens when you stop selling indulgences

 

[Heupel's Offseason Beard]

Dude looks like Will Sasso from Madtv and Loudermilk

 

[vol9799]

Looks like it

I think we can look at 4 years of DW, JH and Spyre and safely conclude that there was a plan for the most probable outcomes with Tate and the other portal WR's. Not all their plans have worked or been perfect, but unlike previous regimes, it's hard to criticize them not having and working a plan.

It seems like 1/3rd of the fan base doesn't like an anticipated outcome so they gripe and another 1/3rd of the fan base endlessly lectures about how reckless and stupid it is criticize anything about the program; and round & round it goes, louder & louder.

Seems like the third of the fanbase that thinks it's possible to be over-the-moon excited about what the program has accomplished AND still discuss who or what could be improved, is just looking around wondering what the heck happened to this place.

Holding out hope for Rudy Ruettiger

 

[Palm Beach Vol]

I think the ND tackle might be one to think about as well.

VFL...GBO

Would not get too cocky about a consensus of minds at group therapy!

Not the best but not even close to one of the worst
Keep spewing that crap though

If we don’t get Tate, please just get another OL from ND. I’d be more than happy to just do that instead anyways.

Would make me happier than getting Tate, imo. With those two at guard and Moe anchoring center, our run game would definitely be lethal again.

Fact is, we need a take the top off type WR. We saw with Hyatt what our offense can look like with one. I personally think he will be a Vol and we can still add a few of ND' s Olinemen( or someone else's). It's not like we won't lose more guys in the spring, either by their choice or the Coach's. There will be available spots to go upgrade.

They will get someone they saw how bad we were hampered last year.
