On to the Goal

Warning: Serious, somewhat somber post.

When the words “Tennessee recruit” and “violent crime” appear in close proximity to one another, the knee-jerk reaction of any Florida fan is usually to crack jokes and finger-point at every available opportunity. Sometimes it’s justified — they don’t call it the Fulmer Cup for nothing. But this time, just this once, let’s reserve judgment. Details here.

Joel from Rocky Top Talk has a very unique perspective on the matter. I share his discomfort and that’s why I’m not including any actual information here. Spencer Hall (yes, under his real name) tackles the issue in an eloquent and well-thought-out fashion. Frankly,  this just isn’t one to joke about. There is now and will forever be plenty of other fodder to use against Lane Kiffin and the Vols. I hope that the young man continues to stay on the right track and succeed in life on all but the third Saturday in September. Above all, I hope that everyone involved in the issue finds peace.
