I guess little ol Knoxville is good enough We've been shitting on OM recruiting the better part of a decade.



Over the past decade, our recruiting has been pretty damn similar, with Tennessee mixing a few top-10 classes with a few train wrecks.

So, yeah, a program with less recent success, a much smaller recruiting budget, and a couple of awful coaching hires has performed pretty fricking well when compared to Tennessee and the resources at its disposal.

Our few "Train Wreck" seasons, were the fricking norm for you

2002: UT #2 - OM # 33
2003: UT #18 - OM 38
2004: UT #20 - OM # 45
2005: UT #4 - OM # 30
2006: UT #23 - OM #15
2007: UT #3 - OM #27
2008: UT #35 - OM #29
2009: UT #10 - OM #18
2010: UT #9 - OM #18
2011: UT #13 - OM #19
2012:UT #17 - OM #40
2013: UT #20 - OM# 7
That's 5 top 10 classes, and only 1 class outside of the top 25 for the past 11 seasons.

Tell me more about how Oxford is easier to sell then Knoxville
