Here are a few of the takes currently circulating

1. I had a conversation with a guy that knows a guy
2. I'm hearing good things
3. All Vol, because I had a dream
4. USC because it's close to home
5. Is going to rip off the USC hat and pick UT
6. Might very well pick Florida
7. All of the above

From the big thread, I posted this earlier today.....seems to sum it up somewhat decently:

"He's announcing in 5 minutes!"
"No, in 10 minutes!"
"No, it's tomorrow! My source says so!"
"No, it's really in 5 minutes! My mom knows Jesse's mom!"
"Yes, it is tomorrow! ESPN has it on their ticker!"
"You're an idiot, it's going to be on date of the 3rd full moon in 2028."
"You're the idiot, he'd be like 36 years old then!"
"Chris Weinke was 36 when he played at FSU."
"Nuh uh. You're a retard."
"Don't call me a retard. Bama Sucks!"
"Jesse Scroggins has been reported to like beavers!"

Jesse Scroggins:
"I'd like to announce that I am committing to the USC Trojans on twitter, the UT Vols on Myspace, and the Florida Gators on facebook."

The End

Who can provide the best summary of the current situation and recent happenings with Scroggins for use in a new thread? Obviously, the announcement moving to Thursday at 3pm is most important at this point.

Biggest recruit gossip since Bryce Brown. 4* QB had the Vols his highly #1 school until Scroggins showed USC what he had...now it's a 3-way dance with the Vols, USC and Florida...Most fingers pointing to USC...

Short and sweet...

To sum it up...

He is either the future savior of our program or he is a bum who is content to ride the pine at USC...we'll know by this time tommorow...

Also...if the first part is true...then it is also true that he pees his name into concrete and is the biological father of Optimus Prime

I've always felt it was USC IF they offered. once they did it was all over. Family and expense is major issue plus HIS school offered. after all that, nothing else mattered.

just my opinion...

I messaged him on Myspace and said the Hill is waiting on him and he said, "Hold on for the ride playa". So Im pretty sure that he's a Vol.


Not.

What we, as fans of the vols and recruiting hobbyists, need to do is keep everything in perspective. We are a team that is coming off of 2 losing seasons in 4 years, yet we are in it till the end with USC and UF. Also, there is a very good QB that will come out of nowhere this year and be the recruiting flavor of the month and some guys will decommit (see Boisture). Just because we miss on JS doesnt mean its over.

He wants to make a difference somewhere. He doesn't want to live with regrets. He's not afraid to step out if he has to in order to make things happen for himself. He's drama driven and likes the excitement and the spotlight. He really wants people to see what he can do. He's coming to Tennessee.

(that last sentence was just my opinion :) )

Quite a bit. He is announcing tomorrow at 3, though. One of his Myspace status gave some people hope he would commit to UT, while others started fearing that he would go to Fla. Paraphrasing, but he somewhat said that the school people were predicting him to go to was absolutely not true. He said to just wait and see on Wed, but then moved it to Thursday.

Jesse Scroggins a California QB from Lakeland High lists his three college choices as USC, Tennessee and Florida. Most services say he is heavily leaning towards USC. Makes sense, it's only 20 minutes from Scroggins home, the family's financial situation makes it difficult to travel. His last visit was to USC as well and he made it known that he desired an offer from them. Originally schelduled to announce on July 25th, rumors and speculation began to circulate when Dion Bailey, a friend and teammate commited to USC before July 25th. It had been reported that they would like to go to the same school. As it stands, Scroggins plans to announce his commitment July 23 at 3PM on ESPN.

Jesse is a rising senior from Lakewood High School, 20 minutes from USC. He is ranked according to Rivals as a 4 star, and as of yesterday, the number 3 quarterback in the Rivals 250. He has been highly recruited by basically every major program, and has brought it down to USC, UF, and us. He has taken visits to all of these, and attended camps as well, winning MVP honors at ours and USC's, and probably UF's.

His mother's family is in Memphis, which he keeps mentioning. He has said he doesn't mind the competition of USC's depth chart. Urban Meyer has told him that he plans on changing to a more "Pro-Style" Offense.

When interviewed, he glowed about UT, and the way that the fans painted the rock, and how he loved the coaches. It was also reported that at the camp, he was seen wearing a UT hat, and hugging the coaches.

However, since that time, he has attended USC's camp, received the dream offer from the Trojans. Though after our camp, he seemed a bit bitter that USC waited to offer so long, especially since he was in their backyard.

He has been at the Nike 7 on 7, and now is at the Elite 11, as well as other camps. He is basically the only one of the top quarterbacks for the class of 2010 that is not committed.

His father loves USC and would love to see him play there. However, Jesse has stated that distance is not a factor. He has mentioned that he wants to announce publicly to help the school out in recruiting. It's been thought that Florida is out of the picture and that the only two contenders are UT and USC.

He will be announcing today, but according to Scout, it will be a hidden taping, and the announcement will be made tomorrow on-air on ESPN at 3 p.m. Eastern Time. This was moved from the original July 25th date that was given.

While some speculate he is all USC, his myspace page (yes, we're going to myspace now) says "I may not be going where everyone thinks I am". He did not commit last week with his teammate and close friend Dion Bailey to USC last week, which makes some think that perhaps he could be going elsewhere.

Tomorrow is one of the SEC Media Days and would bring great attention to one of the SEC schools (UT of UF) If he was to pick them. Some speculate that since he said he wanted to help out the team he picks recruiting, that it leans in UT's favor, since USC or UF don't need help recruiting.

Either way, to sum it up, a really good quarterback has confused the life out of people, enjoyed the spotlight, created a 10,000+ thread on VN, and has given us NOTHING as to guess where he is really going.

Tomorrow at 3:00 on ESPN will be the deciding day, at least for now.

I want him to come but I think he is affraid to take the role as the #1 QB off the top. I think he wants to come in to a school and learn the system and work his way to the starting spot....I wonder if he is affraid that he does not have the talent and Tennessee Fans will eat him for lunch if he does not perform...

I'm looking on WeAreSC.com, and it's like....nothing about Scroggins on their board. It looks like there are a few threads updating like when he is going to make their announcement, but like, no thread is past 10 replies at all....where as, we are over ten THOUSAND here. Jesse, I think it's pretty clear who wants you more.
