They are the one major program that can't dig themselves out of a hole, banking on in-state talent to stay home. Alabama's 2008 class was predominantly in-state guys. They turned things around. UT can't lean on anything like that.

What kind of classes was Shula pulling in while he was the coach? Were they really much better than the classes Tennessee is bringing in? You really don't think Saban couldn't pull elite talent to Tennessee?

Which is why Phil Fulmer is the most underrated coach in SEC history.
