Basically all I know is that he appears to be on down Kiff's list but if we miss with some other kids like Riggs, Wright, Bryant, etc, he will probably be a VOL if Lane wants him.

DB Victor Hampton (5-10 175) of Darlington has scheduled two official visits and as a result, he will see USC in action twice. Hampton will take an official visit to Tennessee October 31st when the Vols play the Gamecocks. And he will take an official visit to USC November 13th when the Gamecocks play Florida, the team he was committed to earlier this year before dropping that pledge. Hampton also wants to visit Miami. He's also hearing from Clemson, North Carolina and Georgia. He said Clemson was actually the first school to offer him after the last game of his junior season. Hampton has been to games at USC, Clemson and Tennessee, and the Gamecocks and Vols are his top two "because those are the two I'm communicating with right now." Ellis Johnson and and Lorenzo Ward have been recruiting Hampton for USC and he likes what he has heard from them. "They want to prepare me for the next level," he said. "My goal is to play in the NFL. And seeing that they do play their freshman, that's got me interested, too." Hampton was born in Florence and lived in Timmonsville. He moved to Charlotte and played for Independence High before transferring to Darlington just prior to this season. He sat out the first part of the season and has played in the last three games. As a junior he had about 50 tackles and 10 interceptions. He has been chosen for the Army All American Game.

And im guessing Kiffin's pitch is "how long do you really see Steve Spurrier coach the 4th-5th best team in the SEC who I might add have never won an SECCG, and dont have the facilities to compete with the might VOLS". IMO If we really want him.

I think we are slow playing this kid like 5790 said.. I think we are seeing if we can get bigger prospects before we take this kid.. From what I remember he was ready to commit on his first visit..

It also has him scheduled to visit South Carolina 10/30/2009.. But wouldn't the South Carolina football team be in Knoxville then?? And as far as I know, I don't think you can use an official visit to see a team when they are playing away... or can you? :unsure:

One more visit is planned for Hampton, who still plans to decide at a later date.

"I'm going to take an official with Tennessee soon. If I don't schedule it today, then it will be sometime soon. I don't have a leader and plan to announce at the Army All-American Game."

I doubt very seriously you will see that visit take place. This is a kid with grade and character concerns. We will likely steer clear.

There aren't any stories. Just whispers and rumors. I would say that they are most likely true or you wouldn't see teams backing off of a talent like this. Juvenille records are supposed to remain sealed so that could be why you haven't heard anything substantial. I'm speculating of course.

The only thing I've heard specific is the situation with the coach's wife.

Don't know if that's a Federal thing or not, but here in TN. they are closed and not for public view. That really makes it hard to judge a young man/boy when recruiting.
