Hurd's commitment to UT will go down as the beginning of the end for Franklin at Vandy.

Everyday I wake up, shower, eat, thank God for the new day, find something orange to wear, and reconsider my hatred for Vanderbilt. Everyday I come to the same conclusion I still hate Vanderbilt

He's a douche and I just want to say that to his face.

This is why I miss Bobby Johnson. He was a realist. I respected that guy. If they won he was grateful for the anomaly, otherwise, he was quiet.

Also, Bobby Johnson had a I-AA national championship at Furman, which is more impressive than anything Franklin has ever done.

Are we sure this is in response to the Hurd commitment? He tweeted that last night and Hurd announced this morning.
Still, a RIDICULOUSLY annoying comment from him. Just not sure it means what most people are drawing from it.

It may or may not be about Hurd, but it's still indicative of his absurd mentality.

Agreed. Those comments are very typical from him.

Can we talk about how a coach at a school touted for its academics cannot spell or use proper punctuation?
