This is Newberry's current FB profile pic:

Isn't this a secondary violation? Posing in a jersey and what not?

 

[I4Jay]

No, its not personalized

[KnoxVillain]

Yeah, it would be smart to pass up on this guy with the shape UT is in now.

 

[LawVol13]

He's 6'5" and 290 lbs. I think he will probably end up on the inside in a 4-3 or on the outside of a 3-4.

No. He's 6'6 255 and runs a 4.7. Sounds like a DE to me.

290 was a typo on my part, according to the article posted on page 6 of this thread he is up to 280 and primarily plays DT.

Good job pulling up his Rivals page though.

I think the jersey still says RICHARD on the back. They had to shrink it since Vladamir wore it.

I like what I am seeing with recruiting.
I love the fact all of Newberry, Richardson, and
Clear are big boys who have the ability to play different positions. We might be done with OL recruiting when you
think this way. That would open up another spot for an extra DB or WR.

I think Newberry has more interest in the Vols than some here believe.

When he and Tuitt visited a few weeks ago, Tuitt went home and Newberry stayed a couple more days -- through Saturday, if I remember correctly. I did not see this mentioned much in the media and Newberry pretty much shut down interviews for a while after that, but over a 3 day span he surely got some good face time with Dooley and Coach C Smith, along with a number of other coaches and players.

Just the fact that he stayed that long indicates he had some serious interest. It is hard for me to believe that a long visit like that did not move us well up his list, with a good chance that we are now at or near the top.

JMO, though.

He can't be more than 265.

When I say don't waste your time is because this kid is a silent to FSU..he's playing the game and if you put too much time into players like this you'll miss on others that have real interest in your program...other than a free trip. With some of these florida kids its FSU or nothing and this kid falls under that category.

Well that's a buzzkill.

What is your indication that he is all FSU?

 

[Lawrence Wright]

Newberry skipped out on a trip to Nike camp in Gainesville than cancelled trip to FNL to visit Tallahassee and didnt stop thru on the way back from T-Town.

Not really sure how Gio faults the Gators for not keeping the lines of communication open when he gave them the appearance that they were wasting their time

FSU is def. in the lead

+1

If the kid wants early playing time, without actually earning early playing time, then UF isn't the place for him. We've recruited okay on the d-line recently.

And if that kid weighs 290, then I weigh 590.

Sometimes its ok to be #2. in this case FSU is killin it and their class may fill up. I.E., if he doesn't commit quick, he will miss out on his #1. Happens to many kids every year.

 

[mooreaj21]

Named Florida, Miami, & FSU his top 3.

[UT_King]

Obviously he isn't interested in going out of state.

 

[miamicane]

fsu is number one....

 

[Biopsyman]

Eddie Gran will be missed in recruiting for S. Florida and with running backs.

 

[VolOnthePlains]

Not by me. He is way overrated.

And by the way, Mark Stoops is Newberry's primary recruiter. Not Gran.

 

[Ericvol2096]

Curses...I thought we had a shot here.

 

[I4Jay]

Finally made what everyone knew already official. Committed to Crimi'Noles

 

[milligan_vol]

Despite saying his commitment is firm, as do all initial commits, he said that he will still take his visits and Tennessee is definately one of them FWIW
