On Cody Blanc?
Sorry for the late response .... just got back a few days ago from a long trip. Mike Farrell and I both have looked over Cody's film, and agree that he's a high 2-star. Good player. Isn't exceptional at any one thing, but seems to do lots of things well. Particularly impressed with his cutting ability, and the way he finds lanes in traffic. Seems to have good, but not great speed. I like him at safety, but he doesn't look like the type of player who would make an impact early. BTW -- I could see Cody returning punts in college. That takes a certain skill, and with his shiftiness he might be able to do it.

Stopped reading after "good, but not great speed".

Both he and Henderson got the trademark shaft from Rivals. IMO, both should be 3 star players. If Devrin was a 3 star, Blanc should at least be the same.

I was thinking the same thing. Not saying that Blanc is an elite prospect, but I would have thought he would have got 3* status.

Blanc had a decent offer list and was offered on the spot at every camp he attended. I thought his offer list was better than Devrin's offer list. Maybe a good senior year will bump him to a 3*.

Not really. I agree Cody should be nothing more than a high 2*/low 3* type prospect.

The thing that got me was the speed part. He has constantly been electronically timed at 4.40 seconds in the forty. It is just foolish to says that he has "good speed, but not great speed". Legit 4.4 speed is great speed to say the least IMO.

Should be getting his bump to 4* when the re-evaluations and re-rankings are done

Duh. Everyone we recruit is under rated and will receive bumps later in the rankings, disregarding offer lists.

Let's all be honest, if he was from anywhere besides Knoxville he'd be playing for Austin Peay or MTSU next year.

The kid is a VOL, seems kind of pointless to sit here claiming where he should be playing as the opinion of message board poster is about worthless. He will be in Knoxville and playing for Tennessee. You don't have to like it. CDD seems to think he will do just fine.

I don't mean to brag about my knowledge but I have had the number one rated class with EA sports for the last three years on my dynasty. Not to mention I have read Meat Market, and have a subscription to Rivals. Needless to say, I know what I'm talking about even though I'm in finance by trade. However, I put my stamp behind this recruit even though he/Dooley can change their mind at anytime and go to a different school. He is white and from Tennessee, and even though he is not a fullback or a walk on linebacker, I will go against my intuition and say that I approve of this verbal, completely non-binding commitment.
