The hell does recruiting classes have to do with not being relevant in more than a decade?

And by the way, M*ch*gan been having top 5-10 classes since Hoke got there, you see what that has done for them.

Oh and: http://247sports.com/Season/2014-Football/CompositeTeamRankings they were number 7 last year.

They were only rated that high because they had 32 recruits in the class, which skews the numbers.

our young talent UNLIKE Michigans has been performing.

look up derek barnett. true freshman DE who has played started every game this season. 3rd in the SEC in sacks. 1st in tackles for loss. he has a good chance to be 1st team all-sec as a true freshman. maybe even dpoy.

we also have true freshman running back jalen hurd leading the team in rushing. he's been great despite a shoddy o-line with 2 true freshman starters. hurd has been better so far than leonard fournette the #1 overall recruit.

Josh Dobbs a true sophomore at QB looks promising. 8 TDs in the last 2 weeks. also played well against Alabama.

watch the Mizzou game this weekend. we're gonna put on a show. this team took its lumps early cause they're so young but they've been really good of late. and all that young talent is finally showing up.

you do know that vegas got us asa 3 point favorite right now over the #20 team in the country?

vegas is taking notice because we've played better against common opponents than mizzou has. we've just hada much tougher schedule. playing oklahoma non-conference and getting bama outta the SEC West.

remember we lost to Georgia by 3 points while Mizzou got blown out by 30.

And Tennessee lost to Florida while Mizzou beat Florida 42-13. Come on man, you don't even know what you're talking about. Stop making stuff up talking about "looked better against common opponents" crap.

something like 40% of the snaps this year have been played by true freshman or first year starters for Tenn. our team is super young. in addition we got a top 5 recruiting class coming in this year. things are looking up in rocky top.

I wouldn't be suprised if we are co-favorites with Georgia to win the East next season.

I was watching ESPNU, forgot the program, but they said that we outscored common opponents in comaprison to mizzou.

either way, the game is saturday. we'll see then. i'm very confident in josh dobbs and the crerw. since the 2nd half of the Bama game, this has looked like a totally different team.

was watching the paul finebaum show on SEC network and some cac reporter on there said we would prolly be the favorites to win the East next year along with Georgia.

its also where i got the 40% stat. Tennessee's squad this year is pretty much made up of freshman and sophmores. once we get older, we'll be a problem.

derek barnett true freshman is 3rd in the SEC in sacks and 1st in tackles for loss. jalen hurd has been a problem. josh dobbs lookin like a future heisman contender.

give Butch Jones time. this is only his 2nd season and first true recruiting class.

if you don't know Tenneesee's true sophmore QB josh dobbs now, you'll know him soon. nfl scouts are already raving about him and he's gonna be a 2015 heisman contender.
