OT: Sources say Tennessee was dropping McDonald's bags of cash to recruits - Dan Patrick Show
Wonder what toys they include in the happy meals in Tennessee
Source: Tennessee #Vols got sloppy with recruiting. They were handing recruits cash in McDonald's bags when they visited campus.

Death Penalty. C'mon NCAA. Do it
January 19th, 2021 at 12:15 PM ^
Evidently there's a right way and a wrong way to do this because Tennessee still blows.
January 19th, 2021 at 12:32 PM ^
What are you talking about? They don't hand out cash in the SEC, that's just Michigan fans excuse when they lose recruits to other schools. Imagine that.
January 19th, 2021 at 12:48 PM ^
Eh nah, it's the steroids of CFB. It only elevates you by so much. It gives you that extra edge. But Michigan has recruited well enough under Harbaugh that we should be the 2nd best team in the Big Ten any given year.
January 19th, 2021 at 1:19 PM ^
Yes and no. Second best in the East is 3rd or 4th best in the conference.
January 19th, 2021 at 1:26 PM ^
From 2015-2020 we had the 7th best recruiting class average in all of CFB. There is no reason other than poor management and attrition that we shouldn't be right behind OSU.
January 19th, 2021 at 2:20 PM ^
This is what is so maddening. Harbaugh recruits well, and when he talks he SOUNDS like he knows his s***. But then we play the games and something always seems to be missing.
Maybe it really is as simple as his failure to develop good QB play.
January 19th, 2021 at 3:23 PM ^
You seriously think he sounds like a football genius? I've never once thought he sounds like a football savant. Even when he was excited about football he at most sounded like a play harder than the other team and you win old coach
January 19th, 2021 at 6:41 PM ^
I mean, you're right just strictly going on rankings, but they've been terrible recruiting certain position groups. Cough, DT, cough...
January 19th, 2021 at 1:26 PM ^
Michigan hands it out in White Castles bags

30 minutes or less.
January 19th, 2021 at 2:22 PM ^
$30,000 dollars or less.
That's why OSU get's all of the 5 stars.
January 19th, 2021 at 5:16 PM ^
Try again ...
January 19th, 2021 at 6:07 PM ^
Maybe the no-need-to-step-foot-on-campus/don't-play-no-school-policy helps.
January 19th, 2021 at 12:48 PM ^
Death Penalty? It was only tons of money. It's not like they were stretching an extra 5 minutes per week! Jeeesh
January 19th, 2021 at 6:44 PM ^
They took the Ole Miss method instead of the 80s SMU route
January 19th, 2021 at 12:21 PM ^
The NCAA is going to bomb Hope college back to the stone age for this.
January 19th, 2021 at 12:31 PM ^
Leave my alma mater out of this, unfortunately there were no bags of cash on my visit for the tennis squad. Still committed anyways!
January 19th, 2021 at 12:58 PM ^
Go Knights!
January 19th, 2021 at 12:35 PM ^
The NCAA is the death of Hope.
January 19th, 2021 at 1:33 PM ^
I doubt that will happen. Penn State got away with enabling child rape and that lot didn't get the death penalty.
January 19th, 2021 at 11:34 AM ^
Was that wrong? Should I not have done that?
January 19th, 2021 at 11:57 AM ^
That was the common excuse from my 3 year old caught doing something she should not have been doing.
January 19th, 2021 at 12:08 PM ^
The real question is what did Alabama or LSU do wrong to get Tennessee in trouble?
January 19th, 2021 at 3:08 PM ^
Mgoscottie doesnt know
January 19th, 2021 at 4:45 PM ^
That's my ringtone!
January 19th, 2021 at 3:14 PM ^
I tell ya, I gotta plead ignorance on this one...
January 19th, 2021 at 11:36 AM ^
Is Dan Patrick considered a solid source of breaking news?
Maybe he could clear up the "paperwork BS" from the previous thread so the OP doesn't have an aneurysm.
January 19th, 2021 at 11:38 AM ^
Nah, Tennessee would never do that /s
January 19th, 2021 at 11:42 AM ^
I would've taken the McRib over wads of cash covered in grease stains

You cannibal!

You’re one of my favorite posters here, you certainly put together great memes/gifs. Which leads me wonder whether you have a job outside of MGoBlog?
January 19th, 2021 at 2:29 PM ^
Russia pretty much runs itself so...no he doesn’t? It’s kinda like how Shoop approaches coaching, lot of free time there...
January 19th, 2021 at 2:29 PM ^
Russia just runs itself these days.
January 19th, 2021 at 3:08 PM ^
It's more a lifestyle than a job at this point.
January 19th, 2021 at 11:46 AM ^
They would have never gotten caught if they stuck cash in Chick-Fil-A bags instead. That stuff's gold. Come on UT, quit slumming it with McDonald's.
January 19th, 2021 at 11:51 AM ^
Rookie. Popeye Chicken Sandwiches are the best. And their sandwiches are in a bag almost the quality of foil. It is hearty packaging.
January 19th, 2021 at 12:24 PM ^
Popeyes is a phenomenon. I've never had one but at the Popeyes near me they are lined up out the parking lot and out onto the right turn lane of a major thoroughfare. That's a magic chicken sandwich.

The one on telegraph, north of 12mile?
Went past that one the anther day around dinner time and the line was a few blocks onto telegraph and growing.
January 20th, 2021 at 12:02 PM ^
That's the exact one!
January 19th, 2021 at 12:03 PM ^
I looked at Google maps yesterday and it said Novi Chik-Fil-A was less busy than usual. Get there and the line’s wrapped halfway around 12 Oaks mall lot, so I left. I’ve decided to sit in the line once, Halloween night, 35 minutes. Waste of time.
January 19th, 2021 at 6:13 PM ^
Wrapping only halfway around the mall, you got lucky!! Usually it's up to Nordstroms! Can't wait for the 7 mile & Haggerty one to open at the end of this month to take the pressure off.
January 19th, 2021 at 12:08 PM ^
You're right, because none of those sanctimonious sons of bitches would have had the temerity to peek inside.
January 19th, 2021 at 12:51 PM ^
They wouldn't use Chick-Fil-A bags because Chick-Fil-A never translates to Sundays.
