As Chartervol said in another post,
It's time to be Tennessee again.
Glad to see Jalen Hurd wants to make a STATEment.

This commit came way earlier than it looked judging from JH's visit..CBJ and staff are showing the loss of Graham was merely a speed bump on their way to rebuilding this proud program..GBO!!

I'll be crossing my finger for a whole year hoping we can keep this kid. It really makes me nervous that the likes of Urban and Saban are gonna be creepin' around all year.

Let the butt holes creep. this young man knows what it means to be a VOL!!!!

This is huge. This kid can play. If you haven't seen him, drive up on a Friday night. He will answer any questions. 31 carries, 394 yards, and 7 touchdowns in this years State Championship game was incredible. Can't wait to see him in Orange and White on Saturdays.

to the board, Lumberman! Happy to have you here!

As several have already said -- this is huge. We really, _really_ needed this! Todd Kelly Jr's signing was a huge get for us, and has set off a chain reaction.

I have a hard time believing by the look of those pictures that Hurd weighs 230 pounds, but I'm thrilled about the news.

Watched some film. Not a whole lot of negatives on this kid. I was surprised at how well he ran behind his pads but keeps his hips underneath of him. That's so hard for any young back to do but it's exceptionally hard for a kid who's 6'3". He's a very smooth fluid runner. No glaring weaknesses on this kid; he's a player.
