Let's just think about this for a second. Miami has gone 7-6, 5-7, and 7-6 in the last three seasons. That's even worse than we've been collectively.

Ahmad Paige (who before coming here had offers from Alabama, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, Miami, and USC) and Lennon Creer (same story, offers from all over the top programs) transferred out of Tennessee to play for Louisiana Tech. These two guys from Miami weren't nearly as high profile as even Paige or Creer due to Miami recruiting not being what it used to be. They were warm bodies down there in Miami.

Trust me, neither one ends up here and Kiffin could not care less. I imagine Bethune-Cookman type careers for these guys, or at the best a trip somewhere in the Sun Belt.

You can say that about any crappy kid... "Steve McNair went to Alcorn State".... The problem is, no one knows who is the next Steve McNair... or Jerry Rice... we cant take a chance on everyone and claim that they didn't get offers, but neither did jerry rice. If so, we'd have a bunch of crappy players and if we got lucky, one talented "diamond in the rough".

Cannon Smith would need to donate some of that fed-ex money to even sniff the field at Tennessee. Im here in south florida and Miami has a situation similar to ours in that alot of their real talent is young. Smith wouldnt see the field as is and will only be recruited over in the future.

More than a dozen players and parents alike, insisting on anonymity, described the workouts as "ridiculous" and far in excess of the NCAA's hourly limits, especially on Sundays following games ("Sundays were miserable") and throughout the offseason. One player, incoming freshman Je'Ron Stokes -- not requesting anonymity, the Free Press said, because he wasn't complaining and apparently wasn't aware of the rules -- said "a typical week is working from 8 a.m. in the morning to 6 or 7 at night, Monday through Saturday," which if true would be break the weekly eight-hour limit in the offseason seven or eight times over. In addition to that, perceived slackers and other wayward players were singled out for pre-dawn work on "Torture Tuesdays." Coaches were also accused of observing seven-on-seven scrimmages and taking attendance, both strictly verboten for what are supposed to be "voluntary" activities.

I guess Stokes going to the Big Blue wasnt such a bad thing.

Also Nunes isnt in the 2 deep at Stanford

*** OFFENSE

QB: Andrew Luck/Tavita Pritchard
It would take an injury or dramatic turn of events for Luck not to be the starter Sept. 5 in Pullman. The only question is whether he’s healthy enough and good enough to start all 12 games.

Reports that Florida commitment Mack Brown visited Tennessee last weekend are false. Brown, a running back from Lithonia (Ga.) Martin Luther King, said he still is firmly committed to Florida, although the Volunteers are recruiting him harder. Keep an eye on Georgia here, too

Michigan, Florida State, North Carolina, Kansas, Nebraska and Duke are the latest programs to offer Jackson (Tenn.) Trinity Christian Academy 2011 athlete Jabriel Washington, who has a bunch of other big-time offers, too. Sources say Georgia is the favorite but to watch out for Tennessee. At first, Washington was unsure of the Volunteers but has been impressed with Lane Kiffin and his coaches.
