I actually thought it was pretty obvious.


coaching is the bottom line. Tenner has always had top25 classes, except for maybe one dud in Fulmers last years, and occasionally top 10.

its not like theres this one year where everything changed and kids stopped wanting to go to UT. even in the dumpster the classes have been good.

all these speculations on recruiting to tenn being a problem in the coaching search dont make much sense. must be something else falling to shite behind the scenes.

I'm beginning to believe that the hoopla following Kiffen leaving UT for USC may be factoring in. And I think the UT AD needs to be canned.

Tenn had top 10 classes mostly, with occasional top 5 classes.

Strong had "major concerns" about the academics according to Hubbs.

This was on Monday before he turned it down.

Cheek and his goal of turning Tennessee into a top 25 research institution has become a big problem.

Two kids ruled ineligible this year by UT who were eligible by both the NCAA and SEC.
