I think that a lot of y'all are underestimating Orgeron in both recruiting and coaching top D Line talent. We'll be fine guys. Don't panic just yet.

Getting a surprise recruit would really help right now. Dixon, Wright, Jones, Nelson, somebody....

The loss to Willis hurts. I know stars don't matter and I know many of you will choose to respond to this msg as "Feb is a long time away." 1 month is not a long time to play catch up, I say we finish with a #9 - #15 class.

Not a terrible class just probably not top 10. Lots of negative things happening in our athletic department right now.

:eek:k: with the returning freshmen from 2009 and the new recruits we will be ok. then after we burst fla' bubble here in sept, 2011 recruiting will be even better than 2010. I have no doubt:rock:

Last year at this time we weren't even in the top 25. Look how that turned out. Kiffin and O will not let a recruit say "no thanks" and accept it until the very end.

We had alot of positives with kiffin coming in last year.everything has been negatives this year and recruits jumping off the lane train.so things arent quite the same as last year.if they can pull a top 5 class,i will be amazed

I attribute all of this attitude to being spoiled by Tennessee's recruiting classes in the past. We are used to getting the number one classes, but we have to remember we have a lot of distractions that will have to work themselves out and also our record was mediocre. By the way, anyone think Rich Bisaccia will help in recruiting once we get him signed up (reportedly)?

Honestly, I'm sick of the negativity. If you can't handle the ups and downs of recruiting shut up and get out. Dear lord I never knew we had so many sniveling, whiny, little pansies in our fan base until this year. Seriously try to get a freaking grip, we will finish strong. We've taken a lot of bad hits this year with the hostess deal, negative recruiting, and losing coaches. People forget just how much ground was made up last year in a short period of time. We'll finish top five this year.

:clapping:thank you! thank you! I agree 100++++% we actually have possible the greatest gruop of coaches, (with tremendous knowledge of this sport and treaching abilitys) to ever coach a college team. And all the :cray::no::mf_surrender::nono: negative fans. These coaches did great with what they had.:popcorn::salute:

I agree the coaches did a great job with what they had, but the events of the last few weeks with recruiting indicates a poorer class than expected. It's not being negative, it's being realistic. In the meantime, Bama and Florida keep raking them in.:furious3:

Awesome, do you think he could come in and play right away? Also, what other decommits should I be looking out for?
Click to expand...

No. I don't think any freshman will come in and play right away, but that's just me. Some people do...

Decommits from UT? I don't expect anymore. Maybe Ralph Williams if he really likes Ole Miss, but that's about it...

Getemvols- You are insane if u think UT will not land a top 10 class. Oh my we lost Willis, so if chaz Green was to commit 2morrow and we jumped back to around 5 or 6, you would be the 1st guy sayin how good we are recruiting, calm down with the assumptions and understand a top 5 class is near buddy.

Im hoping either james or green or cullen can come in and give us some help on the oline rite away. I could see Milton or Thompkins helping in a big way next year. I know Thomp and Cull are jucos though. I could see juco John Brown and a guy like Quarles playing alot as well.

Lol, I personally think that Michael Taylor, Jacqus Smith, and Corey Miller could all make an early impact.

Very good to know that we want be losing many more commits.:good!:

Too many people get wrapped up in having the number 1 class, don't get me wrong it certainly looks good for you program and bodes well for you on the field as well with that kind of talent...but one look at the '05 and '07 classes should tell you everything that you need to know about class rankings.

With that said...we will finish with a very good recruiting class according to recruiting sites...were recruiting way above or value as a program, that should tell you that when the W's start coming, so will the chances at a top class.

It is not negativity when it is realistic.

As opposed to ultra-manly blowhards who'll argue an incorrect point so emphatically, despite all evidence to the contrary.

This is a perfect example of why so many posters seem so "negative" to you. Ridiculous, baseless statements with an ignorance to what is actually happening. How do you know? Because we did last year? Circumstances are entirely different this year.

We will not. Let's just hope Kiffin and crew can coach up what we have.
