no mention of Tennessee, despite having the best D-line coach in the country. not sweating it, though.

It's OK. I am not too concerned. This kid won't announce for a long time. This kid has his head on a swivel, and I would absolutely love to have him on our team. He is smart, driven, and is doing all of the right things to be the best. Whoever picks this kid up will be getting a winner.

Is there anything new on this kid, or is he really going to UCONN? I hear their basketball programs have great pension plans.......:)

Hubbs says we have a legit shot with him. He wouldn't call us his leader, but we are in his top group. IMO, him going to Hargrave may help us a ton...

"We've expressed our desire to get an opportunity to compete and whatever happens in the end happens," Ferguson said. "What we don't want to happen is they come in automatically and say let's put some weight on him and play him as a three technique. If he grows into a tackle then by all means but we feel his strong suit is getting after the quarterback. Playing on the edge is where he's most comfortable and effective."

One of the reasons LSU remained in the picture for Ferguson stems from the Tigers preference for recruiting him strictly at defensive end, the elder Ferguson said.

"He and I were talking about LSU earlier this week and about their tradition," Ferguson said. "He's a big end at 270. You look at some of the (recruiting) sites and their top defensive ends are 230 and 240. He looks like a power forward. People see the dimensions and think automatically tackle. But he carries the 270 real well and schools like LSU, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Tennessee will actually allow him to continue his development at defensive end while others would like to put 20 or 30 pounds on him and make him a tackle."

I think we'll only take one, possibly two more DE recruits this year. I don't think there will be a spot for Ego since he isn't in any hurry to decide, unless they are looking to move him inside as a Wes Brown type DT. A 270+ pound DE doesn't really make sense in Monte's scheme anyway. And from the preceding post it sounds like his dad will push for him to go somewhere he can stay at DE. So I just don't see us getting Ego. My money's on LSU

we will take a 5* player if he wants to come here...

it's an LSU article, of course it's favorable to LSU...

he is not going to LSU to play for Chief...UNC, Miami and Tennessee are much more likely destinations...

Did you watch us play last year?

you can't honestly believe that if Ego wants to come to UT, we wouldn't take him.

Agreed....I don't see this staff turning down any 5* recruits that wants to come to UT. LOL

one good thing about having 15 commits and I think we will get one Sunday as well, is that these boys are going to sh** or get off the pot. I cant help but think this will help with some on the fence. i feel some of these boys have been dragging this on because we had so many spots still open.
