Just got home, so I am late to the party as usual. But read this and now I can't stop smiling ear to ear. Barnett and Blair this close together is almost too much for my heart to handle. The wife thinks my giddiness is about her. Don't tell her the real reason. I need to use this to my advantage!

Now, we check in with Rivals.com Southeast Analyst Woody Wommack for a breakdown on Barnett:

"Landing Barnett is another big win for new coach Butch Jones and the Tennessee coach staff. It was only last year that a highly-regarded player from Brentwood Academy got away but this year the Vols are doing a great job locking down the state. Barnett is a guy who had offers from schools from all over the country and had a lot of pressure to stay in the Nashville area and attend Vanderbilt. Instead, he's coming to Knoxville where he'll have a chance to compete for playing time early in his career.

"As far as Barnett as a player, he's a guy who was a two-way player and even was being recruited by some schools as a tight end. While he's definitely a defensive lineman at the next level, the question now is whether or not he plays defensive end or defensive tackle for the Vols. At 6-foot-3, 270 pounds I could see him doing either and having success. He's a very athletic guy so I have no doubt he can adjust to either spot."

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR TENNESSEE?

It's big for Tennessee because it's another important piece or brick if you will in the state of Tennessee for Jones and his staff. In-state Tennessee's focus now really shifts to wide receiver Josh Malone who officially visited the Vols for the Georgia game and Charles Mosley who's been to Knoxville the last two weekends.

Elsewhere in defensive line recruiting the Vols very much remain in play for high school four-star prospect Dwayne Hendrix.

And Tennessee is expected to host several junior college defensive linemen officially the week of the Auburn game.

The Vols are still involved Abu Lamin and Auburn could be the game we see him on campus. Lance McDowell, Calvin Heurtelou and Jarran Reed are all names floating out there as well about a few making it in as well.
