All part of the game.

Some people view negative recruiting differently. If a coach points out something about the depth chart of another team, or uses tape to disprove what another school is selling him on, I don't have any problem with "negative recruiting". A lot of these prospects have terrible/no support systems, so they cannot begin to tell what is BS from the truth. A coach helping them understand they are being lied to is a lot different than "negative recruiting".

Classic Mark Richt. He negative recruits by telling recruits to tell the media that other schools negative recruit.

No wonder the Thug Life culture is so pervasive throughout his school.

Agreed. UT folks just need to go away until the team does something on the field. All this BS about the great recruting and how good they "will" be has grown tiresome. Fat Phil to the Lane Train to Dooley and now Jones...you guys are on a real roll and desperate to claim anything as a victory. Congrats on "Negative Recruiters of the Year." I am sure it makes the program proud.

They have to be since they don't have enough in-state recruits to satisfy their needs. But honestly I would hate to be in their position.

Get out of here with your incestual self. Alabama went through a similar stretch, if your meth brain lets you think that far back.

For better or worse, we as fans can't choose how well a team performs (things like tackling, etc.) or the outcome of a game.

What you can choose to do is to not get on here and post like your local priest just went full chester the molestor and touched you before spell check finished. Grab some midol and a bottle of water, I'm sure it'll help with the cramps champ

I'm gonna guess this is directed to the trolling AU fan

I was actually hoping somebody would have an example.

I know everyone does it but this contradicts a lot of things I've heard about UT's staff.


Seriously?

Hell, it's exactly what we've been hearing about UT's staff dating all the way back to the day Fat Phil Fulmer stabbed Johnny in the back.

No surprise that Butch has picked-up where Fat Phil left off.

And everyone doesn't do it ... that's an absolute that will not stick.

I've got nothing against the Vols. Matter of fact I probably know as much about them and their history as I do Carolina's. But there is absolutely no doubt that Fulmer's staff were the pros at negative recruiting in SC, worse than Clemson even, and that's including that Clemson and UT set the standards for negative recruiting against one another in this state back even in the Ford and Bowden days in SC ... anyways, we've always known the Vols negative recruit excessively.

Alshon is not pumping gas BTW.

Fwiw, Derrell Scott said that SCe was negative recruiting against VOLS big time during the last in-home visit. He said Butch was just all about selling UT.

Butch is such a man of morals that he took the high road and didn't remind Derrell that SOS would most likely run him into the ground Lattimore-style.

Well, then maybe just don't click on a UT recruiting thread? Just a little advice for you.

If Mississippi is so racist then how come we have some many black people that live here?

It's almost like slavery never happened, and those families chose to move there.

As a Southern Cal transplant with experiences in both states cultures, I can attest Racism in East TN is non existent.
