Hey Gator, looks like the Vols beat you to it.
When Lane Kiffin was announced as the new coach at Tennessee, he vowed that he and his staff would go out and get the best players in the country.

Little did anyone expect that Kiffin and Co. would go out in three months and sign the nation's No. 1 player.

But in a press conference at the Kansas Sports Hall of Fame, the Vols did just that in landing running back Bryce Brown.

"I asked God to reveal it to me," Brown said. "He gave me the sign. When I first went there (on official visit) I wasn't feeling it. I had a lot of concerns about Tennessee and the offense. When I went back, I got the sign. God told me that I was a Volunteer. I just felt it."

The rest is here: http://tennessee.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=924648

Let the SEC bloodbath begin...

1. Lord knows he can play immediately...
'cause the Vols don't have any depth at RB.

Congratulations on a nice pick up and hope the kid becomes a productive member of the team.

2. Why wouldn't God reveal to Brown that he should play for the Gator's...
I guess Tebow's God antenna is malfunctioning.

3. Two rivals are claiming God chose them.
That's a first.

Hell, if Brown said God got him into Tennessee, then I need to give God a high five. Go Vols!

4. Wouldn't it have been a hoot if God had told him to go play for Slippery Rock State?

9. Apparently God didn't tell him to feed the hungry and clothe the poor...
...I guess the priorities I thought God had were wrong.

5. Congrats. Maybe the Dentally Impaired will win 6 games this season.....
Even Miami U. turned this guy, Brown down. Probably be the next UTer to kill someone with his car.
