I can only get so erect.

And what's the word on Kongbo? I saw that he tweeted about Shoop being legit, are we still realistically in for him?

Biggest thing I'm worried about next year is our secondary. They got beat way too often this season

Strongest area of his defenses at Vandy were usually the secondary so it's probably pretty reasonable to believe that he'll be very hands on with the DB's

It worried me when he said he really likes Martinez in his presser today

Yeah I've never really been high on him. Didn't he get fired at UGA? Surely we could find someone better

Shoop is a DB guy similar to Debord being an OL guy. And we saw how much better our OL got with an OC that gives a shite about it. Same for secondary with Shoop, I think

He's a DB coach. I don't get the hate for Martinez. Sure, he wasn't good at UGA as the DC but how many secondary coaches are clearly better at coaching, recruiting, staff cohesiveness, etc.? He's a piece of the coaching staff. I don't think he's some great coach. It's not like we are relying on him to scheme up a strategy to stop Baylor's passing offense. I mean how many sophisticated passing offenses do we play in the SEC? The only secondary coaches I can even name are the ones that coached the Vols in the past and may be at other schools now.

Tyler Byrd looks really, really good. He might be the best CB we have recruited in a long long time.

Our front 7 may be every bit as good as Bama's next year... our talent there is INSANE.

Numbers-wise, I wish we could flip the number of DEs we have for the number of DTs. Just for the heck of it...I'll take a wild swing as to what the 2-deep might look like...

DE: Barnett, Phillips
DE: Vereen, Kongbo
DT: O'Brien, McKenzie
DT: Tuttle, Johnson
LB: JRM, McDowell
LB: Kirkland, Jumper
LB: Smith, Bynum
CB: Sutton, Byrd
CB: Martin, Moseley
SS: TKJ, Jennings
FS: Berry, Warrior
NB: Gaulden, Foreman
