Tennessee just landed a big one

[The Realist]

Scotty Hopson.  Stole him from Miss State and Kentucky.  #2 Shooting Guard in the nation.
We recruited him early on but he committed to Miss State very early then had second thoughts on signing day.

Congratulations.   Maybe you can get to the final game of the SEC Tournament or past the Sweet 16 in the NCAAT.  Oh wait, you're Tennessee....nevermind.

Maybe you missed the part where I referred to We as Arkansas.  Goes to show where blind bias gets you. 

[Hogginitall]

Everyone knows your a closet Tennessee fan....

Wrong.  I don't hide the fact that I go to UT.  And also make it clear that Arkansas comes way before Tennessee in anything. 
If you don't want to know an update on a recruit...so be it, don't read the thread.

I did want to know an update on a recruit.....so I read the thread.  And then made the appropriate comments.

haha nice.

I actually thought Tenn had the talent to do very well in both tournaments. Now i will never put faith in them till they actually win something

Poor guy. He obviously wasn't presented with very good information.

[msudawgs64]

good for him and his mommy, who apparently is the mouthpiece for the kid.  He is a sure one and done, so good sign by UT, from all indications he is a team chemistry killer.  But I think this right here is why I am glad he is a Vol..

Kyle Veasy of the Jackson Clarion Ledger asked him today about how firm he was on the UT commitment, here was his response.

"I don't just commit to a school without signing," he said. "I'm going to sign."

yeah, whatever..don't sound like he is all that bright or has short term memory issues.

Plus when Veasey asked him why Tennessee, he said because they have tradition.  That one made me spit out my soda.

You have to be F-IN kidding me!  That's a riot!  Just a question:  Is he eligible yet?  If not, I'm sure Pearl will make sure he qualifies.

not sure if he is or not, but based just on the info I posted, I would say he may have problems putting on his Nike's without the left/right markers.

Wow.  Hopson must think he's going to play for Pat Summit. 

[Nashville Fan]

Like most schools TN needs a point guard like the Ole Miss freshman.

[opineonswine]

I know everyone has their own rivalry wannabe for us...but for my distaste, Tennessee is it.  That orange and UT make me want to vomit.  I love the state and the people until they put on their fan hats.  Then they are despisable.

They are the team I hate most in the SEC.

[Hogginitall]

You have to remember, it is a smooth transition from the prison orange they are used to wearing.  No need to change out the wardrobe!

Or, they don't even have to change or shower after being in the deer woods for a week.  They can head on down to Neyland to catch a game and fit right in.

That is like me with Kentucky Basketball. If i could give the death penalty to 1 college team..it would be Kentucky Basketball. Even on their down year they beat us!

You really don't see that much orange around TN.  Def not the way you see red in Arkansas.  Most of my friends hate the color and we def aren't wearing orange unless its at a game.

Or in jail......or in the deer woods....or if you are working near a roadway....or if you dress up like a pumpkin for Halloween.  Other than those times, just at a game.

[dougieritch]

As long as he doesn't go to KY that is fine with me.

Never been to jail, don't go hunting (Alot more of that in AR if we are being honest and realistic) Actually I can't think of one friend of mine who goes hunting on a regular basis like some of my AR friends, and nobody I am associated with has been picking up trash on the side of a road so yeah....you don't see it too often.

[DeltaBoy]

Life is short HATE All Orange and UTX2  ( Texa$$ and Tinnersee)

They are the team I hate most in the SEC.

Especially in basketball because of the way their players behave, like the smith trio.

Ramar and maybe Jajuan yes...but why Tyler if you don't mind me asking?

[HOGINTENNESSEE]

He will be gone in a year

[The Realist]

He will be gone in a year

Smith or Hopson?
I think Hopson is 2 and done.  Still raw in some areas.

[PorkFryRice]

Isn't this the UT computer lab???

[LJHOG]

I just hate whoever we happen to be playin', BB or FB.  Just seems so much eaiser that way.
