Kids come in as freshmen like Trey and they don’t know what to say from a leadership standpoint, so they’re just listening and that’s where the other guys come in and show them the ropes.”

OT: Tyler Bray is getting paid (funny story, not necessarily true)

This is just way too funny. Tyler Bray told reporters that "he gets paid to win football games," then backtracked and said "getting paid" meant his education. Love the SEC

it sounds like he was answering a question about whether he was an NFL prospect, and he is quoted as responding, "I couldn't care less. That's what you guys are paid to write about and talk about." I presume he then said, "I'm paid to win games."

So my interpretation is that he mistakenly used the same construction to contrast his role with that of reporters. It's an understandable mistake. Still funny, though, especially his attempt to recover from the gaffe.

He got the short end of that deal. If you get a free education for winning football games at Tennessee then the whole roster's likely paying for college. Should've gone to Auburn, or Arkansas, or Ole Miss, or Mizzou instead. You get a free SEC education for losing, there.
