Is that more or less egregious than Cam Newton wanting to go to uGA but being told he was only good enough to be a TE?

Or is it more or less egregious than letting a Heisman trophy finalist transfer so you can play CheckDownCharlie 2.0 aka Fromm?

To be fair, Joe Burrow was only a lowly 4 star QB.

Cam Newton and Justin Fields were 5 star QBs. You can also add to that: UGA didn't even try to recruit 5 star DeShaun Watson until the very last minute even though he grew up right under their noses. UGA obviously has issues with certain types of QBs. I'll let the rest of you interpret that however you'd like...

Trust me, it's raised my eyebrows over the years.

What is Tenn doing to get the kids there? They surprise me being that high.
Tennessee has great recruiters on Jeremy Pruitt's coaching staff and the word going around is there may be a few players who will flip making Tennessee's recruiting class a top 10 or possibly a top 5 recruiting class by February. I think Georgia Tech under Geoff Collins could have yearly top 20 recruiting classes with how well they recruit.

Will the staff at Tenn make them relevant again? I see great recruiting here but I am not sold on the coaching ability.

Tennessee should have been 9-3 this season and i think Tennessee will go 9-3 in 2020 and could be a 9-10 win team in 2021 and 2022. I think when Nick Saban retires and Dabo Swinney turns down Alabama that Jeremy Pruitt would take the Alabama head coaching job in a New York Minute.
