He looks kinda nasty on film. I don't want to overhype the kid cuz he doesn't even have an offer yet, but he lays some bone jarring hits:

YouTube - Alexandro Antoine's 2009 highlight's

Antoine is another in-state LB (maybe a DE) to watch for to maybe get a Vol offer down the road. His stock has been rising over the past couple of months when his film got out. He holds no offers yet. Could be a perfect fit for a 3-4.

He won MVP of the Middle TN camp that was held this past weekend.

He was in Knoxville for the Orange and White game.

Another kid that I have talked about just last week...who showed out a at a camp this weekend is the LB/DE from Antioch..........he was MVP of a camp in Middle TN.....

Auburn and Tennessee have already inquired since this weekend......he is another one who could get an offer....the kid is a freakish athlete

Alexandro Antoine is the lb/de Carlos is talking about. he jumped 43 in the vert 4x, ran a 4.5, broad jumped 11"4 just to name a few of his results from the IFM Combine. He is freakish and was very impressive on Saturday.

43 inch vert jump is EXTREMELY high.

43 inch vert jump is EXTREMELY high.

yea and the way I took what Buck said, he jumped that 43' 4 times.

 

[NewToVolCountry]

He is extremely quick into the backfield. Play after play was blown up. I like his film.

yea and the way I took what Buck said, he jumped that 43' 4 times.

hmyayum, he jumped 43 feet in the air? 4 times? He must have rockets built into his legs. Shoot just tell the QB to throw it up and get him to jump for it in the endzone!

 

[YankeeVol]

Kid looks like a beast...I hope we offer him

 

[VOLFREAK11]

Looks solid, and he is playin some of the better competition in Tenn. so its not like he is plain Red Boiling Springs for all from the state of Tenn that know who they are.

 

[TrésDay]

Sign him up with Dunaway and Turene and call it day for LB recruiting.

 

[Adam Sandler]

him, gionni paul, and aj johnson would be a very good pull for us.

him, gionni paul, and aj johnson would be a very good pull for us.

I'd be happy with either scenario...but I see us taking 4...at this point I'd say Antoine, Paul, Harris, and Dunaway

Alexandro Antoine Antioch High School LB 6’1” 227Lbs

Alexandro is a physical freak and lit the combine up. “Dro” got the buzz going early with a blazing 4.53 and 4.52 40 times. He then brought the combine to a complete standstill when he jumped a 40 plus inch vertical.

One of InsideTennessee's staff personally went to this camp and saw Antoine in action over the weekend.

Buck just said he thinks Antoine will get a Vol offer eventually.

Good news, cant ever have enough fast linebackers

 

[BIG GUY]

lv, is this kid legit

:lolabove: You know what he meant

LOL, I have worked in the metal fabrication business for past 15 years and I can tell you that people will mess with you if you get your feet(') and inch (") marks backwards or maybe I just have some smart arse friends.

 

[Lord Vader]

lv, is this kid legit

I dunno. There's no doubt he looks legit on film and is a freak athletically.

Carlos gets carried away hyping up TN players at times, but if Buck says he thinks he will get a Vol offer, then I'd say the kid is pretty legit.

UT, Auburn, and Ole Miss are starting to look at him hard after the performance this weekend.

 

[vol66]

He was at camp last weekend.

 

[Lord Vader]

In the month of June, Antoine will attend several camps and hopes to generate his 1st offer.

"I am going to the Tennessee OL/DL camp this weekend and work as a defensive end and then I will come back later in the month to another camp and work as a linebacker" said Antoine.

"I am also looking at going to LSU's OL/DL camp next week. I am hearing the most from Tennessee," said Antoine.

"Tennessee is the frontrunner, but I am also hearing from Ole Miss, Kentucky, Vanderbilt and MTSU."

This kid is really working hard. Glad to see he will be back to work as a LB.

 

[sammyjoey]

Great news. I hope he really performs well at that camp at gets an offer.

I'd love to see Dunaway and Alexandro in orange (even though they're not as hyped as Richardson, Kerbyson, Clear, and Washington)

 

[Ill Will Vol]

“I really like the new coaching staff,” Antoine said. “They are very nice and laidback. They seem very smart when it comes to football. You can tell they love being at the University of Tennessee and it shows.”

Antioch always produces athletes... looking at his measurables he might be worth taking. I used to play against Antioch in high school and they always had some monsters, but most are project players i.e. Michael Mcadoo.
