Oh wow. @FastChad is back. I guess he has finally gotten over Jody. Or is she the girlfriend? 🤔

I‘m not sure if I’ll ever get over Jody. Every time I watched the Vols on TV this year, all I could think about were those dimples and her laugh. I even almost gave up Applebees.

Life has to keep going though, so I’m anxiously looking forward to putting my new girlfriend through a combine tomorrow. I’m really hoping she runs a sub five second 40. That may be a deal breaker and I don’t really have a Plan B.

There’s not much to get. Mike Norvell saved his career by attacking the portal. Tony V used it to elevate a moribund baseball program to the top tier of the sport.

It’s a valuable tool, but you got to make good evals and you got to attack it. Maybe we are, behind the scenes, but we’ll see.

But saying that is apparently negative.

Yea I'd believe a random poster on the internet that can't even spell right. They're 100% correct. Deals in the works as the Lakers are in Vegas gettin ready for the in season championship tomorrow. They're gonna trade the 2nd best player before tomorrow's game! Heard it here 1st before Woj breaks it in the AM.

But seriously they're not trading Ad, Reeves, or Rui. Some of yalls hate for 1 person is crazy. Maybe he needs to get banned/suspended for gamblin or some other dumb sh*t for yall to like him like some other players.. 🤷‍♂️Get over yourselves 😂😂

Not being negative. I've expressed concerns about recruiting for several days now. I've always criticized CWM. The only thing new, and it wasn't so much an "attack" as it was an observation, is the new TE's coach has failed, thus far, to secure a TE commit in this class. That's just the truth. Negative would be pulling **** out of my ass like Checkerboards often does.

Update - OH has been admitted and his potassium was 2.7 (normal is 6). His was low enough to kill him. And he's responding really well. He's been calm as can be and is no longer hallucinating. He is still a little stuck in the past about who is alive and who is dead but he's already improved dramatically from where he was when he went in. He was barely speaking a language yesterday - you'd hear some English words but most of it was jibberish.

Keep your fingers and toes crossed that he continues to improve! And thank you all for the prayers and good vibes. They mean a lot. :)

I think he is for the right recruits and family. Especially the mature ones. I think he lacks that no scruples demeanor. The kind that will do whatever is needed to land a guy. I don't think a head coach has to be that guy, but most great recruiting teams have one.

i think there are two types of recruiters…. intense go getters that obsess over it like Kirby/Saban or laid back recruiters like mullen…. Heup is in the middle of those two types of personalities… Phil was the obsessed kind which was why he was so successful at it.

I think Heup is obsessed he just gives them too much space to decide/visit/etc. AP has mentioned him not pressing guys like say a Dabo might. He also shoots them straight where guys like Deion tell them whatever the hell they want to hear. I'd rather have a HC like Heup, but I'd be ok with an ED O type as a position coach.
