'14 TN DE/TE Derek Barnett (UT Signee 2/5/14)

[sanddune50]

Not in that context.



Moving on!

Barnetts comments are a little weird but not worth fretting over.

When you read the article in its entirety people worried about the 'right now' comment conveniently skate over segments of the story such as this part:



and this one

In the context of the way he said that "right now." Makes me think it sounds like it's closure and not rethinking his options. He really wants to be a part of the "special class" that Tennessee is building here. Sorry Franklin, go along and recruit some 2 or 3* lineman to play for you.

I'd bet anything one of the schools is Vanderbilt, and Franklin is feeding his usual bull ish.

Barnett misses the wild dog bone, IMO.

 

[cncchris33]

Not taking sides here, and I don't like being the grammar police, but since I'm an English teacher, "anyone" is singular.

Agree. Hence the "one" in anyone. It's not anytwo or anyeleven.

I wasn't skating over certain parts I only got to read what was posted here. Don't have a subscription.

I'm sure he is. After watching Michael Sawyers play last night I don't blame him. Looked slow and a bit lazy to me.

I wouldnt take 3 Michael Sawyers for 1 Derek Barnett.

Wasn't urban after him awhile?

Yes

Yeah he tried to get in late by offering this summer. That door closed though when Jaylen Holmes committed to tOSU. Was always a back up plan for Urban IMO.

Meant people in general. All 3 sites I have access to are targeting those 2 words.

It's Vanderbilt. Barnett lives close enough to throw a rock at Vanderbilt's section of bleachers called a stadium. I'm sure Big Cat Franklin is trying to hustle up a last minute deal to get him to hunker down with the Dores.

He knows more than any of us, the coaches, writers, and now an English teacher as well.

Obviously, is on here all the time with no life and argues just for the sake of it. Gives some decent posts just to throw some of you off.

DB is solid. He helped recruit Josh Malone for us. He never wanted to go to Vandy. His mom was worried about our APR (thanks to James Franklin filling her head with BS). CBJ took care of that. Just because Vandy finished 2nd (if they did) doesn't mean it was really all that close.

 

[butchna]

There is no context in which it is anything but singular. Go Vols!

The English language hates Bruin.

 

[engineerVOL]

Has FranklinVol from VQ added anything to Barnett's recruitment in the last few days?

 

[BigOrangeTailgate]

I can also say with certainty that the last time Franklin came to BA that Derek politely declined to meet with him so Franklin met with one of the coaches to find out how Vandy lost out on DB. I don't think anything has changed in the past two weeks.

Boom!!

Great to hear.

That is easy to figure out. One word is "BUTch".

LOL that's awesome.

Keep in mind that these 17 year olds have their own language. Kids in my youth group do the "right now" thing a lot.

"Right now I'm just trying to pass my tests."

"I'm wanting to make the basketball team right now."

That's how I interpret Barnett's statement.

How Franklin feels every time a recruit rejects him-

That entire exchange was ridiculous. Back to Barnett.
