'15 LA RB Kendall Bussey (Former UT commit)

[OrangeHammer]

"I really like Tennessee's chances going in to the announcement. I also like Texas A&Ms chances. Nebraska has a chance. I think he goes to to Tennessee unless he changes his mind last minute and decides to go to Texas A&M...or Nebraska....or some other school. "

- Fortenberry

"Basically I think every school has a shot, and it wouldn't surprise me to see him choose any school. Thanks for the $$$ suckas"

Pretty much. Think its funny how they word their quotes. Basically, what can I say that makes me right no matter the outcome?

Haha exactly

Danny Parker is an excellent example last night saying UT and Reid had parted ways, only for Reid to have to debunk the rumor via Twitter.

People will soon realize they can just burn their money and get the same effect.

Even if he chooses us today, still worried that he will leave us on the altar come signing day. A long time to go until signing day

Yea we haven't had the best luck with RB's from Louisiana but if we were ever gonna geet one and able to keep him this would be the one.

Do think it's just a matter of time with us going after Bussey, Love, Weber and the other guy from Mich and even the guy from Texas they loved.

Depends is he an EE?

PFort still feeling good as of 5 min ago that Bussey picks UT. A&M would be 0-5 today if that happens.

Bussey will be a Vol

 

[Dust10]

Not sounding like you would get the chance anyway

Fantastic! Would love for him to jump aboard!

 

[white65]

I hope he runs like Garry

 

[KokoBVol]

Bussey will be a Vol

Bussey Sr. will tell his son that he will be a Vol.

 

[sanddune50]

OK, the wheels are falling off the wagon. Let me see if I can find a new quote from P Fort about Bussey.

 

[Nashvegas31]

Bussey Sr. will tell his son that he will be a Vol.

Nope. If he announces Vols it's because his dad let him make the final decision. That is why nobody knows what he is going to say at his announcement. Vols side is confident because they know the kid wants to go to TN and AM is confident because the dad wants him there due to relationship with Joseph and closer to home. They know he has been calling the shots lately

Agreed.

Interesting comments from Mike Farrell

It could be Vols, I have heard that Nebraska is out and it's down to TAMU and Vols but dad is such an attention seeker I haven't chased it through him because he sent me on a goose chase with the whole de-commitment then denial thing a month ago.

Vols have been the kid's favorite forever, but Nebraska sources think TAMU is the threat. But again all the info seems to come from his dad so no one knows what to believe.

Keep in mind dad played HS ball with TAMU secondary coach Terry Joseph and Joseph had started to recruit Kendall before he left Nebraska for the Aggies. So that's why I am picking A&M despite Kendall's desire to be a Vol for a long time.

I'd lean towards Paul on this one because my Vols source is confident as well. I have to predict for thousands of kids a year and sometimes I'm not as tuned in as I like. This one I just can't get a read on because of pops.

I hate it when parents try and run the show. Guide them, counsel them, and help them along the way, but at the end of the day let the kid make his decision. He's the one who has to live with it for the next 4-5 years.

And I really don't understand the Joseph part either, would be different if he was going to be his position Coach or if he even coached on the same side of the ball. But do understand wanting him closer to home.

Agree unless they chose anywhere not named Tennessee

Me either because Joseph will probably be let go when TX AM hires a new DC and Bussey will be back on the block again. Mess

Lol...it'd be silly to think otherwise.

Absolutely..I don't remember Joseph being a good coach anyway but seemed to be a good recruiter but know most Coordinators want their own guys.

I hope Bussey's dad will keep this in mind or has thought about this already.

 

[rocktopper16]

Sigh...

Lol, I thought you was cool about adding Bussey? What's his deal.

 

[eazyTD]

What? I like Bussey. Not sure if I like him more than Reid but it seems like CBJ is shooting for an AK/Love/Bussey RB class and that's fine with me.
