'13 GA CB Shaq Wiggins (Transferring to UT)

[JRVOL11]

Must not be a big deal then .

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

He's a Vol unless Butch cuts him for the visit, which I doubt he will

Yeap, that's what I was thinking . I don't think he will cut him .

The people who say this is nothing to worry about are the same people that would be cool with their wives meeting an ex for dinner and not telling you.


Gratham isn't inviting him to MSU to catch up on old times and play Xbox. He wants him to transfer to that school. He will do everything in his power to convince him of that. And if Wiggins wasn't at least interested in the idea, he never would've gone.

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Does anyone know when he's supposed to be on campus at Tennessee?

We don't play MSU this year, so probably never.

I say we all throw a fit, panic and burn a few mattresses

Simonton reports that the Vols coaching staff was not made aware of this visit.

...and the coaching staff cannot contact him while he is on an OV, will be in Starkvegas till Tuesday.

 

[PA Vol]

I get the Grantham connection. But by now that's kind of a moot point. He's known this whole time TG is at cowbell state. Yet he visited here, committed to us, and then did a surprise visit to MSU and is considering flipping again.

I stand by what I said earlier.

I'm not at all panicking, but to suggest this is just a meaningless visit and nothing to worry about is naive.

Placed in one of the weigh-ins at the Bass Pro at Chickamauga, top fish for the weekend was 9.98 lbs. ...wish you were coming up in June for the Big Bass...

...now back to Shaq and your normal broadcasting network

I'll see if I can make the June one. Congrats on placing! How big was it?

Not true. You can contact on an official visit. Just ask Saban.

Under 6, Saturday was better than today for everyone.

Ok, you can't legally contact a recruit without committing a violation. :lol:

What's the rule that says a recruit on an OV can't be contacted? If he didn't tell the staff he was taking a visit, they don't technically know where he is.

 

[Catbone]

Is there a day that transfers has to be on a team by?

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Not true. Meyer text and called Nukeese Richardson the entire time he was on Tennessee's campus for an official.

Actually, if I remember correctly, Lane Kiffin got in a bit of trouble when he accused Urban Meyer of cheating when he contacted Nukese Richardson while he was on his official to Tennessee.

As it turned out, the accusation was false. As it turned out, we probably would have been better off if Urban had convinced Nukese to go to Florida. Nukese was one in a long line of horrible recruiting decisions by Lane Kiffin. HIs one year at Tennessee gave us nothing but headaches for at least 4 years afterwards. It not only eventually ended up giving us Dooley, but it also gave us 4 years of probation.

Familiarity with the coach might mean a lot to him. Grantham coached him at Georgia and Louisville, and is now at Miss State. Could be familiarity, grades, money, lots of factors.

Guess he won't turn pro since Grantham won't be in an NFL staff. I don't want him. Guy is a flake.

Wouldn't surprise me if Grantham didn't go back to the pros. He's a journeyman.

Didn't Petrino ban Shaq from going to MSU?

He originally put a transfer ban on Shaq, but then lifted it once he received a lot of flak over it.

 

[LouderVol]

and people are acting surprised?

 

[RiseToTheTop]

one trip to starkville will make any man realize where else he would rather be.

 

[DeekT]

We need a nasty corner like Shaq even if only for a year. I hope he is a Vol.
