O/T: Tennessee

Tennessee forgot rule #1 in the SEC: DO NOT **** BAMA OFF

Early in the recruiting season, Tenn was landing 5-stars left & right & even had a top 3 class going into Sep-October.

They learned the hard way, you not allowed to unseat the Hierarchical order of the SEC, Bama gets theirs first, then UGA, then LSU, then TAMU, UF & Auburn get to eat, you try to cut in line, you get that Ole Miss/Miss St treatment & Emmert sends his NCAA Investigoons to shake you down & your program gets hit with sanctions.
😂😂😂 it’s funny because it’s true. Rules

Here’s to hoping Pruitt is a small, proud, little man who tries to blow the top off the whole thing.
 
Their biggest claim to fame that they hang onto for dear life is 6 NC’s - 4 in the 30’s and 40’s (which weren’t unanimous) 1 in the 50’s and the 1 in ‘98. They’ve got plenty of money but haven’t figured out how to spend it yet.
As has been mentioned, they have to recruit OOS. They’ve been middle of the SEC pack for years and will remain there for years to come.

The easy answer is that they can’t get no big time GA, Ala,, Miss., or Florida talent. UTenn HAS to go across the state borders for premium talent, because there’s not a lot of it there. Now, thanks to their struggles, the little big time type talent that they’ve got, is leaving to go to places like Clemson, Ala., or UK.
 
Clemson took Amari Rodgers and Tee Higgins from UT--both were from the Knoxville area. Clemson also took the No. 1 TE in the country this cycle; Jake Brinningstool from TN powerhouse Ravenwood outside of Nashville.
Volunteer fans have waited lifetimes to have good instate recruits, now they are producing a few more and Clemson is signing them.

3-4 bad coaching hires in a row is a great way for your team to remain dormant. Sounds familiar huh?
