What concerns me about the recruits we are getting is the fact that they are not, IMO, quality recruits. If you look at John Brown, Glen Stanley (who is probably going to USC now), and couple of others, they are having difficulty even qualifying academically. Add in a few reaches such as Sapp, Crump, Propst, and Jackson and this recruting class falls of the table real quick. The lack of interior line prospects as well as LB's is concerning as well. The thing about Alabama and Florida that is so frustrating is that they are recruiting and getting 4 star and 5 star blue chippers who are actually qualifying academically. Tennessee's recruiting classes since 2005 have really been hit hard by non qualifying players. We need to sign players who are great on and off the field.

We went from almost 20 on rivals back up to 7th after losing the hc 3 weeks before NSD. We finish top 10 CDD has done an amazing job.

so they wouldn't let LT offer him while at TN and all of a sudden they are in love with him...whatever....USC is going to crash and hiring CLK will turn into a terrible move for both the school and CLK...They can't get anyone to trust them and are struggling finishing off their class...Karma is a bi$#h

Since taking over as USC's recruiting coordinator, Ed Orgeron has been a man possessed, evaluating film and unearthing prospects that were never thought to be Trojan targets.



Linebacker Glen Stanley is impressed with USC's tradition, prestige.


This weekend, Orgeron did it again, securing a visit from a prospect at a need position.

"It was a great trip," Glen Stanley said. "Man, it was really informative. I got a chance to meet all the coaches. I found out who my linebackers coach is. It was just great. Everything was awesome."

Stanley, a four-star junior college prospect from Eastern Arizona J.C. in Thatcher, Ariz., is being recruited by USC to play strongside linebacker.

"I liked USC because of the history, the history of the program," Stanley said. "They've had some awesome linebackers come out of SC in the last few years. It's Linebacker U now. That's the name of it. I know I can come in, and they need linebackers. If I come in streaking, I can be the next Brian Cushing or the next Clay Matthews.

"They told me I was going to be playing SAM if I decide to go there. That means I get to do a lot of blitzing off the edge. I'm used to doing that, covering some tight ends, and doing a lot of blitzing. That's what I'm comfortable doing."

Stanley previously committed to Central Florida before switching his pledge to Tennessee after a visit last weekend. However, his contact with Lane Kiffin, Monte Kiffin and Orgeron was limited while those coaches were at Tennessee.

"I didn't have that much contact with them (before they took the jobs at USC). I had spoken to Coach Kiffin one time prior to him leaving for USC," Stanley said. "I hadn't set up a visit; I hadn't done anything with Tennessee before they got to SC.

"They got to SC, and they said they needed help with the linebacking corps. Coach Orgeron got in touch with me maybe a week after he took the job at SC."

Stanley, a 6-foot-2, 245-pound converted safety, said it wasn't difficult to head to USC's campus after offering his pledge to Tennessee.

"To be real, nah, it wasn't tough. I knew I wanted to visit USC even before I visited Tennessee. Those were my two last visits I set up. To be honest, I liked Tennessee. It was a real nice program," he said. "I knew I had promised the coaches at SC that I was at least going to come and give them a visit. I was just exploring my options still.

"We'll see what happens on Signing Day."

Armed with a scholarship offer, Stanley left campus very high on USC.

"I've got the opportunity to play for one of the best school's in the world," he said. "You can't beat that. They're giving me an invite to play for the University of Southern California. They name speaks for itself.

"But I'm keeping things open for the most part. I'm committed to Tennessee still, but I'd say I'm open. That's just where I am right now."

Stanley, originally from Ocala, Fla., originally attended Bowling Green before heading to Eastern Arizona J.C. He said he left USC knowing he made a strong impression.

"They told me the only way they recruit junior college players is if you're a great player and they have a need for you," he said. "It's the right time I guess."

Still, to even have this chance, Stanley's excited.

"I just prayed and I worked hard. It's the light at the end of the tunnel. Hard work pays off. Anything is possible. I just thank God that I'm in this predicament - to choose which school to go to."

Stanley will announce at Vanguard High School in Ocala on Signing Day. And he's doing it at his old high school for a reason.

"I'm going to have an announcement at the high school for the younger guys just to show them it's not over with if you don't make it right out of high school. You still have a chance to do exactly what you want to do."

Here's what Stanley said upon committing to Tennessee:

He also told Tennessee media outlets that he wasn't heavily recruited by former Vols coach Lane Kiffin, but the new Tennessee staff showed greater interest in him and made him feel comfortable about committing to the school.

from: Former four-star UCF prospect Glen Stanley switches commitment to Tennessee - OrlandoSentinel.com

Can't see why Kiffin would be interested in him all of a sudden unless he's not getting the kids he expected to get.

True, & to add to that, he committed to us due to our current coaches. Which even had some posters saying that's like those cats that committed to X, & they wished he'd committed more for UT. So, if he likes our coaches so much, I'm having a hard time believing this one. I might have to start praying.

That son of a ***** kiffin... I would SWEAR that he's doing this just because he's angry at how we bad mouthed him when he left. Seriously, why go after Stanley? Isn't California a hot spot for recruiting... He's such a POS.

I like how he's saying JUCOs are beneath USC. We only take them if they are special.

And he is about to lose a head to head with UT in Markeith, his pride will take a hit.

And if he finishes below UT after starting way ahead, he'll take another hit.

Plan B, take one of our best recruits. Its a win-win for them. Its all about the recruiting ranking to him. The team comes somewhere after that.

The crocodile tube wasn't common, but it was used to kill many infidels and thieves.

The victim was fixed inside a tube just big enough for the victim's entrance. The tube, having crocodile teeth-like spikes, was slowly compressed leaving the victim totally immobilized. The torturer could only see his face and feet.

With the help of carbon and fire underneath the tube, the torturer gradually heated the tube until he extracted a confession or killed the victim. The former was most common, as this is one of the cruelest and most painful tortures ever used on human beings.

With the face and feet exposed, the torturer was able to inflict painful wounds on the victim. Facial mutilation and toe ripping were preferred choices.

We finished #1 in 2005 and we all know how that class turned out. We may have the #7 class right now on rivals but if John Brown does not make it in, Glen Stanley goes to USC, J.C. Copeland switches to LSU , and Ralph Williams goes to Ole Miss, this recruiting class gets average really quick. We are NOT filling our needs positions very well. Did anybody watch the CFA bowl game? I was there. We need studs at LB, OL, and DL. STUDS! Not stretches or "well we might be able to develop him into SEC caliber" guys. Ralph Williams has kind of fallen under the radar but he is going to be a big loss on NSD if we cannot secure his signature. He is good. Who cares if we are WR U if we have no depth at the positions of need. Call me MR. Pessimistic but I am just being realistic here. If we want to be able to compete AND WIN against Florida and Alabama we have to compete with them in recruiting. And we have to be able to hold on to our elite committed prospects.

Ya know.. I'm not sure if Kiffin is really trying to kill Tennessee's recruiting class. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure he'd be fine with taking a recruit from a school that hates him so much.. Some folks believe that he is purposely hovering over Tennessee's recruiting class but I'm wondering if he is hurting on recruiting and going to any and everybody he was working before...? I wonder if he has hit the bottom of his barrel on the west coast and is now getting desperate?

Rivals has not listed USC as adding any commit's since Kiffin and his staff have began there. I've read that many big names have visited, although no commit's (that I know of). Honestly, I wouldn't want my son playing for him. The school's legacy can only take you so far. He has shown his true self and been blasted for the most part by the media..

Any thoughts?

For real? You've seen and heard Kiffin... you've seen and heard Dooley... who would you believe in? Dooley... read the article and he plainly states "I'm still committed to Tennessee"... end of story... USC and Kiffin's band of liars haven't signed 1 commitment since being at the GREAT USC... ha... not ONE... I have confidence in Dooley to get the job done... the man isn't stupid... he can easily out smart and out class Kiffin... Kiffin will be a laughing stock begging for a job in a few years...

I guess DD should just tell MA and Rogers to go else where. Tell them , yea your good but you cant be a lineman. Come on man,, we need to get any stud that we can right now. If we dont fill all our needs so be it, DD has only had a couple of weeks. At least next year when we do fill our needs we will have some studs to go with them!

It's odd they'd think he's good enough for SC, but didn't bother to recruit him to UT.

Those guys can blow enough smoke without a machine to commit a secondary violation.

I did not say anything about not recruiting Markeith Ambles and Da'Rick Rogers. We definately need those guys no doubt. I am just concerned about UT not being able to recruit WELL the positions of need. IMO, we do not need 3 QBs in this class. Bottom line is we are getting beat on the recruiting field for LBs and DTs. How in the world we let Michael Taylor get away is beyond me. Florida is stacking up 5 star after 5 star and the kid chooses them over us. Who freakin knows at this point but i can tell you this, DT, OL, and LBs has to be our focus in 2011. No doubt about it. This class has the potential to be above average but it wont be great IMO.

I'm on facebook. I tried to look up Glen Stanley and a football player didn't pop up. Can you give the link to his page? Thanks.

I thought there was a big article out here recently or on TOS that said to not contact recruits on Facebook or any other place. Most of the recruits don't like it and it freaks them out and could be a violation from my understanding. Get a job at Rivals, then talk.
