Serious question...what is ole butch selling up there on Rocky top? UT has signed an silly number of players in the last year. At first you can see early playing time, but by now the cupboard is getting stocked.

I mean we're still Tennessee and it sells itself to a certain extent like it has for generations to recruits. All time besides Alabama being ahead of us, we are one of the premier SEC programs and are one of college footballs blue blood schools. We won't be down forever.

The Chizik recruiting special. Come have a fun time, we have no one so everyone is an instant starter, we need you to start and you will lead us to a storied program turnaround, etc. I mean when you hear rumblings that they are pitching a complete project like Torrance Gibson immediate playing time, you get a pretty clear picture of what they're selling.

Its a good initial recruiting pitch but at some point they're going to need to actually start winning on the field. You can only sell the whole "we suck, come turn us around!" thing for so long.
