Love the Spinzone. We sucked so bad that they know they have to stop sucking now.

I do keto for ~3 months every 2-3 years. I'll lose 10-15 pounds, which gets me to my ideal weight. Then I'll slowly gain it all back and repeat the process. It's the only diet I can sustain because it doesn't really involve conscious calorie reduction. When I'm counting calories I obsess over food.

Whole food plant based is the way to go.

Let me rephrase that a bit: We whiffed on almost every recruit that we wanted and didn't come anywhere close to what we'd need to start making up ground in this meat grinder of a league, but it may work out for the best.

Clemson had the #8 2018 recruiting class on rivals and won a National Championship that season. Tennessee has the #8 2020 recruiting class on rivals so that must mean...

How about making it to the basement for a work out GeauxBass

The SEC is brutal. Tennessee finishes with a Top 10 class.

Any other conference and we are talking about conference championships and possible playoff runs. In the SEC, Top 10 gets you 6th best.

2020: 13/23 blue chips
2019: 12/22 blue chips

Currently at 40% BCR.

1 more class like these last 2 and we will finally get into that elusive "blue chip ratio" club that we have not been a part of since the Fulmer days.

At this rate we may blow right past it.

Are you saying the team is currently at 40% BCR including the 2021 class?

The last two classes combined, 25 of 45 players, are at 55.5% BCR unless I’m misunderstanding.

I’m doing the math and trying to figure it out guys...

Is this Pruitt setting up JG as the scapegoat or Fuller positioning himself to take over as head coach?
TIA

Dan Mullen with his NSD announcements

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

UF, FSU, and Ole Miss boards are littered with TN hate.

We back boys.

F them all

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

I heard Mullen’s ice cream fell off the cone at first lick

Can't be true. I heard Mrs. Mullen always gets the first lick.

We get him back for next season too (most likely). I think there's a chance Pons could enter the draft, personally I think he should stay and finish his degree. Because I actually believe our staff is better at player development than a majority of NBA & NBA G League teams are...but maybe I'm bias.

Ideally next season you return Pons, Fulkerson, bring in Walker, Springer, and Keon will have Bailey eligible and have a full off-season (hopefully healthy) for James, Santiago, & Uros to get better.

Really excited for next season in football & basketball.

Mo, I don't see anyone, on this team, that is anywhere close to being NBA talent. I also think this team has a chemistry problem. Barnes has proven he's a great coach but these guys just haven't responded to what he wants them do. There is absolutely "zero" chemistry with these guys and I don't see anyone who wants the ball in their hands when the game is on the line.

Not sure what it is about this dweeb but he just irritates the hell out of me.

 

[tnhunter 10]

ESPN should be took out of the composite rankings.

Yeah it’s petty. The difference in all of those classes is probably 1-2 players.

I have no clue what this has to do with what I said originally.
