re: Tennessee has now played

Dooley managed to pull off a good recruiting class after "SPHINCTER BOY" bolted for Hollyweird. But he's had two PRETTY GOOD recruiting classes but nothing like Alabama and Florida. That Florida class of two years ago was one of the best and signed one of the best defensive line classes ever. Nick Saban is the best coach in college football. I won a 1,000 bucks when he came back to Alabama when I bet someone he would win a national championship in three years and he did it..

Saban is probably one of the top three defensive minds in all of football, college or pro. His players run an NFL style defensive and when you play Bama you know what you are going to get on offense..Enough passing to keep the defense honest and a heavy dose of Richardson or whoever the tb is at the time. They are like a pro team.

Muschamp doesn't have to leave to state to have recruit. Florida sells itself. Charlie Weiss while not a head coach is a great OC and molds quarterbacks. Pretty soon the PRO STYLE quarterbacks will want to play in Gainesville. The talent will be there.

That being said UT is on another TIER below these two. Dooley will be a good coach and I think he has us pointed in the right direction, but we don't get the kind of horses Bama and Florida get on the Defensive line..And that is where the game is won..Maybe in time though..
