South Carolina fans have been salty as hell on just about every board that I have been on outside of this one. Jesse Simonton said on today's podcast that Muschamp has been one of the most active coaches trying to negatively recruit players against Tennessee and it is completely blowing up in his face.

I hope we get Jaycee Horn and then embarrass South Carolina at home this year.


Doesn't surprise me that it's blowing up in his face. Recruits don't respond well to that shite. They're looking for a place to call home for 4 years, want to know if you can take care of them, help them achieve their goals academically, and help them achieve their goals after football whether that's in the NFL or elsewhere. Bitching constantly about someone else to a recruit you want to attract to your program is a lot like bitching constantly about your ex to your blind date. (I'm running the moment it happens and you can bet on a lot football recruits and their families doing likewise). JUCOs are far more jaded about the process and going negative with them seems an even bigger error.

And yeah, the saltiness has been weird as hell. Entertaining but weird.

Florida and South Carolina fans loading up on the Salt -- I'm loving it.

From the UF Board:

"I understand it's only July, but some point you gotta step it up. Butch Jones who's on the hot seat has a top 5 class rn. Like wtf is he telling these kids? Brick by brick??" "Tennessee must be getting the best class money can buy."

From USCe Board:

Not one true DE on our roster and this guy (Gerald) picks the Vols? SMDH. Watch them pull Jaycee Horn from us too. Thought Butch was on the hot seat? Certainly doesn't seem to be having an effect on their recruiting (at least against us). "If we lose Gerald and Horn to them that is not good. No doubt UTjr are masters of negative recruiting. We just need to be able to counter that stuff." "Until SC chooses to play w the big boys this will keep happening. Right now muschamp is only selling a vision and its clear everyone is using that against us. Gerald will be looking for a new home soon tho. When ut flops again this year butch will be gone"
