quote:

When he got home from school Monday, Stanton Truitt (Monroe, Ga./Monroe Area) was told by his father to go check the mailbox. "When I went to open it, it would not budge," Truitt said. "I pulled it down, and then some of the letters were hanging out, but they were all tied together by a rubber band. I was thinking there was no way these came from the same school. But I kept pulling on them and I thought the mailbox was going to break, but when I got them out I found out that all 102 of them were from Tennessee! It was crazy." "The Tennessee staff had been telling me that everything we do, we are always going to do it plus-two," Truitt said. "Every play you run, you want to get plus-two yards, take an extra two yards with the end zone. Everything you do, do it plus-two. That is why they sent me 102 letters."

I doubt it but who knows? I thought it was kinda creepy at first until I read the reasoning. Whatever Jones is doing right now, it's definitely working.

Cheesey. It's Tennessee. I'm surprised they use this crap.


We really going to bring up cheese? The cheesiest team in the SEC is Bama - but you don't see anyone complaining.

Yeah, it's much cooler and less ghey when a head coach calls a recruit and sings happy birthday.

Hugh Freeze laughs at this gesture as he finishes up his 200th letter for one recruit.

So CBJ is guaranteeing him he will start & play what ever position he wants to...
