I went and reminisced the signing classes we've had in years past. The '23 class feels like the first one with legit name recognition since the '14 & '15 years.

I know we aren't rated as high as those. But it genuinely feels like the same level of talent is in this years class. Possibly even better if they reach their potential.

And woof... is it depressing seeing how many misses we've had previously. Evaluations were baaaad for the most part.

Everyone’s entitled to their opinions sure but some opinions are so dumb they deserve ridicule. It is what it is homie. You have a dumb opinion, you’re gonna get hate about it lol

Fans want to be at the top. When they're constantly bombarded by other fans saying other teams are "more talented" then they want to see their own team get that talent, too.

Seriously, all year, I've heard other Tennessee fans say, "I can't wait until we're as talented as <insert team>". So, are we now going to say that doesn't matter? This year we were spoiled by Heupel succeeding faster than we imagined, but it also shows, we are a fanbase that wants to be in that playoff picture. I'm not advocating signing guys of poor character who don't fit the culture, but we still need to be signing top talent.

And I would never refer to this team as "a bunch of losers".

Beamer name drops more than any head coach I've ever heard. Goes along with his thin skin. It's almost like his self confidence is so low he keeps having to prop himself up constantly to the public.

He had to point out his time at Tennessee, I think it was right as we reached #1. The dude has a massive inferiority complex. No doubt it was caused from lack of attention from his dad. That probably explains why he even coaches football.

Idk how I feel about skipping the bowl games. I get it, super happy for Hyatt, but just makes it feel like bowl games are about pointless unless you're in the CFP. I wish the best for Hyatt, awesome to see such improvement in a year. He gave us some awesome memories.

Outside of the playoff, bowl games are exhibition games. The Orange bowl will be missing Hooker, Tillman, Hyatt, and Banks. Are there other starters missing, too? This team will not be the 2022 team we watched most of this season.

I want to beat Clemson but a win or loss is inconclusive to decide any 2023 outcomes. I mean, we lost to Purdue then had the best season in 19 years. It’s not worth getting worked up over either way.

We have more talented individual players in this class than we've had in over a decade. If it's not the most talented this century, it's in the top 5.

I just looked at the FF and the OC discussion........ Unbelievable. I think all you need to do is go to google, search OC of HC at a small school pick a name and make an argument for that name....amazing. I think some of these people have a Rolodex with coaches bio's.
