Great to see the site back up and running, I had no idea. I’m sure there have been some changes since I was last on.

1-7-13, the day dreams were crushed in Indiana and a Crimson Dynasty was born.

Good man. Below average coach. I sure hope we have enough money to get a rock star.

Also I thought Bama knocked Franklin out of that game in the rain. Mea culpa.

We got the Corbin Berkstresser experience.

Either you’re talking about Marlin Lane or Raijon Neal.

Unfortunately of late, my other responsibilities have prevented me from giving 3SiB the full attention that it deserves. As for that game, I’m not really sure I could adequately capture what I was thinking anyway.

Sounds ominous for coach Sunseri. Good luck against Mizzou.

BTW, haven’t heard from Steve in a while. Was hoping to hear his take on that doozy in bayou Saturday night :)

We don’t have the 4-5 star guys that the other programs do. Recruiting hasn’t been awful under Dooley. But it hasn’t been good enough. You can look at it from half-full: Tennessee had the 13th best class in the country. Or the from half-empty: Tennessee had the 7th best class in the SEC. 7th best in conference isn’t going to get it done week in and week out at the level Tennessee fans wish to be at. One thing Fulmer did exceptionally well was recruit the entire country. Peyton was from New Orleans, Tee Martin, from Mobile, the Clausens were from LA, Erik Ainge from Portland, OR. That’s just quarterbacks. That doesn’t include the Kevin Burnetts, The Travis Henrys and Dante Stallworths of the world. Dooley has this recruiting plan that focuses on concentric circles around Knoxville. That’s all fine and good, but UT’s coach must recruit nationally.
I don’t know if that alone fully answers your question. This may also. This is the worst defense Tennessee has ever fielded. I am sure the switch to the 3-4 under Sal Sunseri has some part in the problem. Good coaches put their players in the best position to win. I don’t particularly care if Sal is a 3-4 man, he needs to play 4-3 or 5-2, or something else because this other crap isn’t working. He needs to adjust, and he hasn’t shown an ability to do so. I fear that we won’t get to the recruiting part of the issue, until we address the coaching part.
