So you're telling me dudes from the tenches aren't better players in general than good to great upbringings?
yep i got busted driving over 100 one time…. i’m lucky it didn’t happen to me.What? That’s not what you said before. You referred to UGA off-season as the example for the type of players we need. All they did was go fast in a car
Their upbringing had nothing to do with it. Spoiled rich kids also drive fast.

Geez man. You do realize Bates hasn’t officially signed anywhere right? Good grief why are you just so quick to give up? Yes it looks like FEU for Bates but we don’t know. God.We needed to close with Bates. Players like this are more of a project, or a gamble.
Having a shut down corner, is paramount with playing 'stop the run, bend and dont break', Defense.
If Bates signs with FSU, and we sign this kid..... That's like getting a participation award.Geez man. You do realize Bates hasn’t officially signed anywhere right? Good grief why are you just so quick to give up? Yes it looks like FEU for Bates but we don’t know. God.
Take a portal corner with experience all day over a project. We ain’t got time for projects at key needs. This day and age you can plug and play. Portal isn’t perfect, we had peeli get injured and Thornton had a slow start but he started. I think more consistent qb play would have helped him though.
Jimbo just got fired and paid more than Huepels entire contract. The money is flowing in the CFP era and with extended field next year we aren’t going to wait. I want Huepel to succeed but he can’t string together 8 win seasons and not get on the hot seat. It’s not made up it’s the new landscape for big programs in college football.We don’t have time for projects in that timeline you invented in your own head

You really think what I said isn’t true? I didn’t bring NIL in the game, I didn’t expand the playoff field, and I didn’t fire jimbo although any of us would with those deep pockets. Tennessee is a top 10 if not 5 program. After Huepel pulled a miracle last year the money poured in. They won’t accept missing the playoffs. I don’t care if it’s year 4. He will be on the hot seat next year getting 8 wins.You really think the program is on your timeline

Oh I agree with you. Signing this kid signifies you have struck out and have to go back to a fall back. I would much rather go to the portal than rely on signing a former Vandy commit.If Bates signs with FSU, and we sign this kid..... That's like getting a participation award.
I hope I'm wrong and the kid is a star, but I'm not seeing it.
I saw the kid play earlier this year against Union City. Honestly he looked good but it’s hard to tell because Union City doesn’t pass much. The safety committed to Michigan and the lineman for the 2025 were more impressive. Ensworth was just so dominant that Union City looked bad and they were a good team.Has anyone seen this kid play? All I'm getting here is a bunch of talk about his dad and arguments about character. Can the kid play or not?
