Is Tennessee Really This Desperate?

Now, as a Gator fan, I know how it feels to have bad characters on your team. Especially when you have Ron Zook as your head coach. One thing I am sure of though, we don't give scholarships to rapist. Apparently to Tennessee, the rape of a little girl just isn't all that big of a deal. Apparently, incest isn't either, considering the article states the girl was a relative.

This is the article I have just read proclaiming that Daniel Hood is being recruited by Tennessee this season in Kiffin's first official class.

Now, I can understand forgiveness and second chances, but some people do not deserve it. Raping someone means you do not deserve a second chance in my opinion...forcing a young girl down and then proceeding to tie her down like a dog and sexually exploit her is beyond sick, and this man deserves NOTHING.

We all know why the Fulmer Cup was invented, but Fulmer never pulled in rapist. Does Kiffin really want to sing Rocky Top in the Swamp this badly?

The article states he is a great guy now and such, which may be true. I do not know the man, I only know what he was convicted of. I could just be a minority on this but there are three things I consider unforgivable: Rape, Murder, and Pedophilia.

Come on Tennessee, is this guy really needed? Is this another attempt by Kiffin to promote the University? Hey, maybe it's a great idea; show every young man who has committed the most heinous of crimes he can still come and play for you!

I do know one thing though. This has already given me a perfect idea for a sign during the Florida/Tennessee game.

"Hey Daniel, Don't rape me bro"
