BoooYa! That's great news!
Coach Sirmon's name pops up again. It seems he can really relate to the recruits on a personal level. I'm getting more and more excited about our recruiting class.

We had better get Peter Sirmon on a FAT payroll. That guy has been unbelievable in recruiting.

We could use a couple more DT's to go along with Danny O'. We need depth in a bad way.

We need to start feeding McNeil, Santos, O'Brien, Peters, and Taylor raw meat now so we will have one mean defense, and then turn them loose on the SEC. Welcome to our team.

This is great news! Welcome to Rocky Top Mr. O'Brien! I think we need at least one more quality DT for this class, maybe 2. Add 2 more quality DE's, and we're moving in the right direction. Right now we only have 2 DT verbals, and one is a JUCO.
