Sheeeesh Prof. Seriously?

I'm disappointed in the Vols.

That't ain't the way to do it.


West coast and other schools have been doing it for ages. I see no reason not to get on top of it. Both our Uni and our fans are particularly good at tech and are online more than most. Recruits love these edits/Photoshops and they request them on their own most of the time.

It's all in good fun and without twitter no one even know about it other than the recruits. I'm a traditionalist in a lot of ways, you know that, but this one just doesn't bother me. To me it's all in good fun and makes people smile.

I can be stodgy on a lot but this isn't one of them.

So UTee is whoring out Beyonce and aren't paying her for it?

I see a potential lawsuit on the way.

Deflection? You say UTee, I say UGay. I win!

Be embarrassed, I don't care. You really think when Tuttle is on the field for us next year, people are gonna be like "HURR DURR, Look Gene!!! There's that 5* DT that Tennessee made that picture for!! Lulz at them!!!!"

If we were whoring out Beyonce, Tuttle would already be commited. Just saying. As for photoshop - parody and putting your face beside stars has always been legal. It's no different from the various vacation photos beside cutouts (well except they often charge for the pic) and those have been around since the camera came along. Covering a person's head to make it look like you're the one with whichever star came of Noah's Ark on crutches - this is the same.

Otherwise... we 'seen dem drawerrigns' y'all started and sent recruits. We had to play catch up there and shoppin' was a way to get a step ahead of y'all but no worres we all no that will be temporary. UGA will shoppin' and trying to figure out a way to use shiny holograms to one up us soon.

Yeah, she is a sexy woman. I certainly could show her a new world... the world of SWC.

Scrooster & GoldenDawg - excellent trolls and curmudgeons (smart too). And when they want to be they're even fantastic posters.

JesusQuintana - not very good at either and has displayed very little in the way of football IQ.

Spend some time learning Heysoos from those who know what they're doing. It will help your game greatly.

He's just mad because Missouri can't recruit. He downplays recruiting rankings and things of similar nature but boy, he sure was pumped up when he thought Mizzou was gonna flip Barnett and Hendrix

Well yeah, I want the guys my coach wants. They made a mistake. They won't be developed like they would have been here. I don't see how that's even in question.

They fell for Butch Jones jazz hands. Their loss.

Sentiment when your team does it:
This is great. I love it. Whatever gets the recruits.

Sentiment when another team does it:
I can't believe you'd stoop this low. I can't believe this is what you have to do now.
