Fighton247 Board

I was looking for more information on Hatcher's decision so i decided to check out this board, i saw the Self destruct comment and i believe it's a little much, i mean, he would be a great commit, but DL is looking good at UT for the next couple of years with Danny O'brien, Daniel McCullers, Dante Phillips, Latroy Lewis, Darrington Sentimore, and Trent Taylor. USC fans and other fans chime in from time to time on Tennessee's board and they're welcome to do so as long as they represent themselves with class. Nothing wrong with a healthy debate. Apparently it's not the same on the USC board. Hatcher is just one player and is not an immediate need, like Vonn Bell or one of the RB's UT's staff is currently recruiting. I apologize if i offended anybody, it'll be best for everyone if i stick to GoVols247 for now on.

Woulda, coulda, shoulda, He's a Vol, and we're happy to have him. This year is the year to judge CDD, he walked into a dumpster fire (played 32 freshman the past 2 years, Oline had a combined 3 starts his first year, youth in the SEC is like a recipe for homemade dynamite) and, in my opinion, has handled it about as well as any other coach, he cleaned the program up and has built a foundation of talented young players. They were set up for a good year last year until injuries crippled an already young team. I won't deny that USC is a better football team than Tennessee right now, and they have been for the past few years, but the Pac12 isn't the SEC. I believe if Hunter returns at 100%, Cordarrelle Patterson lives up to the hype, and the defense adapts to Coach Sunseri's scheme, that they can go toe to toe with anyone in the country, but those are alot of if's. Good luck to Hatcher wherever he chooses. Grow up and learn to show some class "buddy".

You're welcome to post on Govols247 if you wish. If you come to us with class, we respond with class. I agree that a large part of UT's fanbase is quite volatile (no pun intended), and even though the folks over on the UT website might not be too fond of Kiffin, we don't blame the USC fanbase for his sudden departure.

Friday at 7pm Hyatt Regency hotel in downtown Louisville will also be live streamed by yahoo/rivals and covered by everyone especially SS

You haven't said anything offensive and have been very respectful actually. It definitely was an overly strong statement to say you guys are self-destructing cause of Hatcher, I don't know why everyone here is being so sensitive. I hope we can all live in peace and you all can forgive Lane and company for how things happened (the timing wasn't his choice). Best of luck in recruiting the rest of the year and on the field. No reason we can't be friends here and exchange whatever recruiting info we've got.

Thanks.

Pablo, agree, can we be civil to posters coming from other schools, rather then be automatic "attack dogs". Agree to disagree, don't act like the few disagreeable homers each site has....I would like to think that Trojans can show class. Having been in Knoxville recently, most TN people are over the Kiff era, and trying to support their current coaching staff. TN fans are just more passionate and loyal then most outside people can comprehend.

You don't have to lie. You said you came to find out when and what time he is announcing, but the fact is, you could have found it on your board, the Twitter feed, probably the blue board as well. Yet, you came here, had no conversation with anyone here so you had to read the comments to start one, and if you did that, then you had to of read the principle announcement on this post telling you the time, yet each comment you made was defensive, and about Tennessee. Not once did you ask for any information you say you wanted. Just be real. The Tennessee fans are butt hurt. No matter the reason, it's all good. We're all fans. Good luck anyways though.

Hatchers teamate Quick is a top 100 receiver and wants to visit USC.

After reading the Hatcher thread on the Vol's 247 board today, I would have to respectfully disagree with you my dear.

Some people seemed rational, but there were a lot of jackasses over there also. "USC couldn't play in the SEC week in and week out", "Players who want to go to USC are soft", etc.

A lot of idiocy in that thread.

I always call it like I see it, as you know.

I do think the Vol fan who came over here got a much rougher reception than he deserved from people, as he seemed to come in peace.

But there are some absolute tools on the Vol site. Like this clown:

I do understand wanting to go to the NFL, so if I was soft and from california, i would go to USC myself. I wouldn't dare go down south where those corn-fed, fried-food eating boys hit too hard, and i gotta compete almost every weekend. This is "The dirty south", and this is our site, so kindly remove yourself, take you're pretty pu**y and go ride that USC co*k.

Another SEC internet tough guy/ keyboard warrior. What a joke.

Especially considering the same PAC12 teams that these douches love to say are so weak are something like 5-1 vs the Vols in the last six meetings.

That's even worse than the annual beatings they're taking in the SEC.

I personally can't wait until USC plays the Vols in 2021 and 2022.

It will be so much fun watching SC destroy another overrated SEC program. Just like the Barn and Arky last decade.

I hope the Vols have the courage to keep the game on the schedule.

Hatcher is from Louisville, Kentucky, but I guess the point stands.
