Should we be nervous..

[Bluegrass Vol]

Currently, we are around 30th and 10th in the sec. Please tell me we’re gonna do better than this before this class is done? Seems like to me we’re always “in the top 4-6” but the top guys seem to always pick another school? Are we gonna get it turned around?

Relax, signing day is in December

 

[chargervol]

We just got a commit today.

I know firsthand that everyone will tell you it’s May. Yes, there’s reason for concern.

Explain how there’s reason for concern?? Did Tyler Baron, Cooper Mays, Jay Hardy, BJ Ojulari, Chris Morris, EJ Williams, Kris Draine, Tank Bigsby, Omari Thomas and about 100 something other guys we’ve recruited heavily already commit elsewhere? Did Harrison Bailey flip? Please explain how there’s concern if we’re not losing current commits and 95% of the recruits were chasing haven’t even announced yet?..

I think we should freak out about the current state of recruiting. We’ll be lucky to finish top 30.

 

[Sleegro]

I'm hearing we're done with this class and aren't taking anymore commitments.

 

[Orangeredblooded]

Just the type of thread a troll would swoop in to claim the sky was falling.

Lets say we have a terrible recruiting year rankings wise and miss out several top guys. Missouri has had more success than us recently recruiting almost only 3 stars. If they can do it, so can we. As long as we get the right type of players we will be fine.

Concerned? Yes. Worried? Nah, too early to tell.

Yikes, talking about settling

IMHO it’s never too early to burn some mattresses in the streets.

And we just signed a 0* recruit today! Wtf is going on in the complex? Settling.

I hear we are still accepting transfers but only if they are down to their final year of eligibility.

 

[XknoxvolsX]

If anyone remembers how it was, say, in the late 70's, from about 1977 till about 1985, that is what we are heading in to.

 

[kemotoe]

Man tentatively lose out on a high 4 star recruit and we should close the football program. Didn’t we just get 4* commit today? Oh yeah and we got 2 of the top 5 OT last cycle.

Also can we not have these threads in the recruiting forum. Take it to RF football talk.

The internet is a dangerous place lol

We’ll make a push in the early signing period again and finish top 12-15 again. Hopefully this staff can earn its money through player development. Just don’t see it being elite in recruiting, not likely to pull top 5 classes. Can still win at a high level, see Clemson.

What's the matter with you, boy? You too stupid

 

[tennrich1]

There's no way these thread occur over and over and not be done in jest. We ARE NOT this stupid as a fan base. I refuse to believe that. Sooooooo…...I'll laugh with the rest of us and wink an approving eye at the frivolity offered here. Surely someone is keeping a tally (just for fun mind you) of how many times we've seen this same exact thread. SMH til it shakes lose of me body.....sigh!!!!

I agree... at least for the time being. I think Tennessee will need to start consistently winning 9-10 games a season to start landing enough 5* prospects to crack the top 5 again. It remains to be seen if this staff can get us there or not. They have a lot to prove.

 

[VolGrizz]

I specially hand make Jeremy Pruitt's ice cream cones at McDonald's. He told me yesterday that we'll be lucky to finish top-40. It's not looking good guys.

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Win and they will come. It's that simple.
