This dude...it will absolutely shock me if he shows up in Knoxville.

Especially with OSU, who pride themselves on a gigantic NIL, on outspending everyone, literally picking up recruits in a Mazerati, and are clearly out for us. They were smirky about winning Tate and rallying their base for NIL to do it. And then what? We beat their offense for tops in the country, then we beat them for the Biletnikoff Award. I suspect they would want to overspend here even if they didn't need or even want a corner. I'm hoping for the best.

So IgboNOsun?

He did wear Tennessee colors on his visit, so there's that.

 

[NighthawkVol]

Agree…..
*Some have never liked him…….I get that
But……..
*Some would absolutely LOVE him if the situation was different and he was doing this kind of flash in Knoxville.

Yep. I’m fine with Deion. He is who he is. I’m far more abhorrent of the phony dirtbags like Urban and Dabo.

Charlotte (N.C.) Charlotte Christian School standout EDGE Bryce Young took in another visit to Tennessee on Saturday. Following the outing, he discussed the trip with Volquest.
“It was great,” Young said. “Walked in, and the facilities wowed me. I was impressed and my mom was impressed. Coach Ekeler said all of the student-athletes use that facility at some point during the day, so all of the athletes are together. That shows the community for the athletic life. I had great conversations with Coach Heup and Coach Garner. It was a great day.”
Young had previously visited for a gameday, but knowing he would get more one-on-one time with the staff, he used the visit to find the answer to some key questions in this process.
“How this school could develop me,” Young said of what he was looking for coming into the trip. “If I can see myself playing here and succeeding and getting the most. I did (get the answers). I learned that Coach Heup is a coach that is going to tell me the hard things I need to know and grow and be the best player I can be.”
During his time with the staff, the message was clear and to the point.
“How they are building a program,” Young said on what the conversations centered on. “This was their second year here with the Dline, so they are looking for guys that can help build a championship team. This is a great opportunity for me to have a chance to be a part of that.”
Young does not have a current decision timeline in mind, and he isn’t ready to say which programs are standing out, but he does plan to return to Tennessee for another visit in the Spring.
As Young navigates the process, he does know what he is looking for in a school.
I am looking for a school that is going to develop me as a player to go to the NFL,” Young said. “But also, when football ends, because it has to end sometime, I am going to get the best education I can out of it that is going to set me up for life.”
The 6-4, 215-pound prospect is currently rated as a four-star recruit. On3 ranks Young as the 103rd overall prospect, 11th-best EDGE, and second-best player in the 2024.
Young is the son of former San Francisco 49ers great and Hall of Famer, Bryant Young.

Sorry this is off topic, but dang this is funny!

Soft ref. Unless the words were inappropriate. I love it, I wish officials were held accountable more often.

 

[jave36]

We're good enough to beat anybody when we show up. Especially at home. Just need to show up on the road.

tl;dr: hell yea to the new Vols script BB jerseys

Sorry to get all poetic on VN early this Sunday morning

But a Robert Frost poem best describes how I feel about the new Vols script basketball jerseys for UTjr vs the Vols script football helmets we wore vs USCjr


The Road Not Taken, Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

This is a great stat.

That was pretty much an automatic T. Showing up a ref will get you one every time.

I just wonder if the ref used his index finger or middle finger to T him up. Hard to tell from the camera angle.
