In our conversations with Tyree St. Louis last week we do believe Tennessee has somewhat of a shot, but it's fair to say the two instate schools, Florida and Miami, both likely will be tough to beat. But, St. Louis reminded us that he's very familiar with Tennessee's staff and they were his first major offer and he enjoyed his visit to Tennessee in the past.
What should be worth watching over the next few weeks is if there are any staff changes at Miami. The word in Florida is that Al Golden is on thin ice after a 6-7 year just one season after winning nine games. The big step back for the Hurricanes gave some pause as to whether Golden is the right man for the job.
But, even if St. Louis decides to decommit from Miami the odds are likely that Florida would be the benefactor. Nonetheless, the Vols will give their all the weekend of Jan. 16 for St. Louis.
