Deboer basically telling these guys first come first serve. It seems like half a dozen more names have popped up over the last week for DB. Hard to keep track but he not waiting around for them to make a decision if others are ready to commit....

I am not sure how Deboer will work out long term but for him to have a chance he needs to have players that buy in to what he wants.
These players jumping ship are part of the reason Saban hung it up. Recruit a player once and still have to recruit them every off season to stay.
For those th...

Neither really. The back drop off in the distance there are mountains which makes Knoxville a nice place to live. Easy drive to the mountains.

Now I just record if not around and even find myself only watching if a big game. Outside of UA I no longer have interest in watching games unless with friends. With the direction t...

We will not know how it will turn out until after the season and maybe not until the next.
Everyone was hoping Saban would make us a contender but no one I doubt believed he would do what he did at UA. Something I doubt will ever be repeated.
I do believe we have expanded our reach on the WC....

Tom Hanks after starting off in Bosom Buddies to where he is now.
John Travolta and Robin Williams also started off in roles I doubt many would have guessed how far they have gotten.
