  • I think Memphis would be the fun one just cause of the unknown factor of who is going to sign. If it was in Knoxville first I'd consider going.

    It's the day after signing day, not on signing day.

  • I've never understood why Chattanooga is always overlooked on recruiting celebrations. Outside of the Nashville metro area, it's probably the fastest growing area in the state.

  • If we get nobody we want, will they still be called "celebrations?"
