'15 FL DE Marques Ford (FORMER UT commit)

Yep...a situation like this always stings a little more.


Having recently impressed at the Under Armour AA gm and earning a fourth star I think he lands on feet okay.

Think you're onto something here. Seems like UF or FSU would be the obvious choice of it were possible for him. UF should be the easy choice given their class size if we simply cut him. Seems like Butch didn't want to take a chance with a possible non qualifier.

Good student according to Newberg who covers that area.
 
man I love Butch but you're telling me u give bruce a scholly and take fords away? anybody with eyes can see that ford has one of the highest ceilings in this entire class. now I see why tennessee hasnt produced d line like mizzou... we take the most talented instead of the "position of need" Butch is an idiot for this one and I've never bad mouthed him before... we will gladly take ford off butch's hand. what a joke u guys should demand answers from somebody.

Too soon, dude. Let the sting wear off, then come back.

First of a few casualties I'm sure. It is a bit surprising that Ford was the first to go though. Sounds like the coaches told him his scholarship is no longer on the table due to number concerns. Shame they waited this long. Jabo Lee also got shafted pretty hard by Butch don't know if yall remember the details there, but basically the coaches knew he wouldn't get it in and did not discuss this with Lee and his coaches until like a few months after NSD-Lee was already a December graduate if I remember correctly and according to his high school coach we had his transcripts since January, so there was no excuse on Tennessee's part for calling him an academic casuality - especially considering he signed with another college right after we turned him down. Point is, recruiting is a dirty business at times. Just gotta deal with it.

Definitely...just sucks it happened so close to signing day.

Another reason I like the idea of an early signing period. If a school isn't willing to sign you early then you know where you stand and have plenty of time to look around.

Bruce is a blue shirt candidate. Wont count towards this class (if he ever does)

I am sure you are more qualified to evaluate talent and team needs then he is.

UT is starting to produce DL again. After losing ealy, Ray, golden, Sam, hoch and Vincent in the last two yrs I'm sure mizzous line will take a step back. Marcus loud is no markus golden.
