The Vol staff evaluated this kid in person this week. He does not have a UT offer at this time.

He holds offers from USC, LSU, Ole Miss, Miss St, and S. Miss. It says something for a DT to hold an offer from Orgeron.

Eric - is his offer post-coaching change from USC? I know that can be a bit confusing at times.

We have to get out there to find some DT prospects this year...very important to this class. I like that ACT and GPA...doesn't look to be in trouble when it comes to qualifying.

I'm not for sure. What would be cool is if Rivals added the offer date, then we could tell. I would say though, that LV was right and Orgeron offered him.

A DT prospect that looks legit. It is a plus that we evaluated him in person. I would expect an offer to come soon or at least more contact between the staff and player given our need at DT. Great size for a DT.

You gotta be something if Ed Orgeron offers you...
