this guy deserves a thread. It's been mentioned in a couple of articles that we are courting him pretty good.

number 1 outside linebacker in the country. Texas and UF and TOSU lead but we can sway him with Monte Kiffin.

Chances are slim on him. Supposedly the best player on defense to come out of Ohio in the past 10 years

Couple of points here.

IMO, this is the OVERALL best linebacker in the class, even better than Jeff Luc. And Luc is a guy my Gators are in the hunt for. Luc gets credit for what he does to a ball carrier after he catches him. Well Hicks is going to catch more in the first place.

Also, I have no idea where it's coming from that UF is one of the leaders. If so, it's the best kept secret in Gainesville because nary a peep is spoken about Hicks.

Hubbs has been saying for a couple of weeks that UT will be going HARD after this guy. I fully expect the Vols to be in it until the end. Lance Thompson was supposed to be at his school today as well...

And BTW, Hicks > Luc...

If he is better than Luc... He must be a freak

That's just my opinion. This is gonna sound to stupid to most people. Heck, it sounds stupid to me but here goes... I think Luc is a little overrated because of the way he hits people haha...

You're pretty much right. Lucs highlight tape lends it to get noticed more because the way he just kills people. That seems like all he can do besides just being a beast physically though.

Hicks is probably the most complete overall defensive player in the country.

what does the new artice on VQ say?

Browning basically hunted down the coach of the school where Hicks and the #9 TE go at a coaching clinic.

Then it just describes the players pretty much. It says they (The HC and DC *Whos daughter plays basketball at UT*) talk about Monte Kiffin and how great of a school we are, ..etc

Just from the article it sounds like we've got a really good shot at the TE and a decent shot at Hicks.

"We've got a defensive coordinator that was an All-American at UCLA (Karlton Gray). His daughter (Amber Gray) plays basketball at Tennessee. One thing Karlton and myself, when we talk to Jordan, we say when you look at Tennessee, you've got Monte Kiffin down there. Talk about being NFL-ready. From a football aspect, that's a school that obviously can help Jordan and help him to begin to refine where he's at as a football player and begin to prepare him for a different level of football. That's a school you've got to consider."

Per Rivals... This quote came from Larry Cox, the high school coach of Jordan Hicks. I really like the sound of that...

Sounds good to me too, the coaches sound like they are really in his ear about UT, but I guess I shouldn't read too much into that though.

Coaches usually have good things to say about every school though. We can't read too much into those comments, such as he will end up a Vol. Wishful thinking at best... we've got a long ways to go to get this kid's LOI.
