Thats what I thought, so have those schools contacted him or something? Or do you think they are some of his favorite schools, that could possibly flip him?

To catch the eye of the head coach of an SEC program must be every kids dream that comes to a camp as a virtual unknown. Happy for this kid and glad he's a vol.

"They didn't know nothing about me — literally, nothing," Dews told InsideTennessee.

When exactly he's part of the Vols' 85-man roster and running onto Shields-Watkins Field donning the orange is up in the air but he fully well plans to be at Tennessee.

"Yes, but I'm going to take all my officials though," said Dews, who hopes to see Clemson, James Madison, Ohio State and South Carolina.

"I went down to the camp. My coach had told coach Thig to look out for me," Dews said. "I went down to the camp and performed real good, very well in everything I did —*drills, 40, 1-on-1s. In 1-on-1s, I played receiver and linebacker. The only one who caught a pass on me was*Daniel Helm. I had three interceptions.

"On offense, couldn't no one check me. The dude that smoked out that ran a 4.3, I cooked him on a back-shoulder fade and snagged the ball from him. After I did that, the head coach ran up to me and was like, 'You better not leave this camp without trying to talk to me.' And, I ran across and talked to him. He was like, 'You're a very good player.' And, he really liked me and was 98 percent sure to giving me a scholarship. And, he was like, 'Give me two days to watch my film and we should go from there.'"

"Man, I can talk to him about any and everything," Dews said of Thigpen. "He's just a great dude. I know when I arrive I will have almost like a father to me on campus. Yeah, I can talk to him about any and everything and he seems like he wouldn't mind."

"I really like coach Butch Jones, too. It's not common to get such a good connection with a head coach you've only known for a week and a day."

"I just know they did say they're losing some linebackers and they're really in need of some linebackers," Dews said.

"D'Andre Payne, we're real close friends. So, whenever he'll be there, I'll be there," said Dews, who resides in Oxon Hill, Md., about 12 miles from Washington, D.C.

Board will melt down if he starts getting offers and goes on visits.

There is nothing to. ask, we are locked in, I don't know the rules of Vols coaches as far as going on other officials but it really dosent matter, B Jones took a shot in the dark and we stand by that, we know Jerome can ball so its not that suprising to us maybe it is to some of you, but those coaches showed loyalty when we talked to them, and that's what we are about, he may take all the visits he wants (5) but at the end of the day, we roll with Jones and The Thig, and I'm sorry I used roll, to close to well yall know! He's a Vol, and that is all!!!!!

Initially this is a head scratcher but I generally try to trust the coaches evaluation over what rivals has to say so I hope this guy pans out for us.
