“... Shoot, why does anybody who’s ever won something do it again? Because it’s cool. So, let’s go do it again. Let’s see if we’ve got what it takes.” -- Stetson Bennett, The Athletic, 3/22/22
UTK without Dobbs will be a train wreck. I can’t wait. Wouldn’t surprise me to see them move that big freshman receiver back to quarterback this spring.

So it’s a Dooleyesque recruiting class and the class still gets a B? I think most UT fans would disagree. The strange thing is how much Clemson has been able to hurt their recruiting. I remember when UT had a strong presence in SC. I think Butch is heading for the door sooner than later.

SOD on D-Day –
“Right now we’re like the Germans in World War II,” Dooley said. “Here comes the boats, they’re coming. You have the binoculars, and it’s like, ‘Oh, my God, the invasion is coming.’
“You had the other group, and they go, ‘Wait a minute, they told us the invasion was way further north,’ where we had the empty tanks and we were hiding Patton out. ‘We weren’t ready for this, now what do we do?’ ‘We better wait until Rommel tells us what to do.'”
Unfortunately for SOD, it was not Erwin Rommel (shown below pointing and staring) or even his namesake Erwin Meyers, who told SOD what to do. Rather, it was Mike Hamilton believing that Pas-de-Calais or a Pilot service station was going to be the main invasion site.

It just ain’t fair that the recruiting geniuses do not award stars for life championships.

That guy gave Butch a B grade for his recruiting class? Did be also give him a B grade for UT’s 2016 season as well?
That class was a C- at best.
