'15 NC RB Bryce Love

[westside]

I spoke with Bob Kesling and he gave me a much different list:

1. Sawannee Frasier
2. Bruce Love
3. Kendal Buttsake
4. Corey Dolphins
5. Balboa Reid
6. Vince Vaughn

I chuckled.

That's true. I could see things possibly play out that way as well. The one constant seems to be that Bryce is the one at RB they are waiting word on before everything else falls into place.

Is Love planning on being an EE? I could see that being a factor if so. Maybe they get him and Kamara on campus first before flipping Bussey.

Will be interesting to see this play out, especially now that Reid is flirting with UGA.

JMO but I think the board goes...

1. Frazier
2. Love
3. Bussey
4. Dauphine
5. Reid
6. Vaughan.

Some comination of 2 from those 6 will do.

Looks good only two I think could flip are 3 and 4.

 

[westside]

Looks good only two I think could flip are 3 and 4.

Yeah. I actually think of them as 3 and 3a.

I put Bussey ahead of Dauphine because he's more realitic at this point.

Who is the "one we really want to commit"?

no sarcasm...honest question

Obviously just a guess, but I think they are trying to get Love to commit ASAP. Outside of Kamara, I think that's who they really want. JMO of course.

 

[Phat-Phil]

Love is the high school RB I've always wanted in this class. It does sound encouraging right now with him based on Paul's updates. I just hope he doesn't hold out too long to make a decision whether it is TN or Stanford. I'd hate to have TN put someone like Bussey on hold only to have Love make a late decision to go to Stanford and then you possibly lose out on both guys.

I just don't get why Love would want to play at Stanford. He doesn't seem like a good fit for their offense imo. They seem to like bigger backs and Love is more of a scat back/slasher. They've struggled running the ball in the endzone this year bc they don't have that big back that they're used to having. So I just don't understand the interest on either side. Love seems like a much better fit for our offense or someone like Oregon but not a power based running team like Stanford. It's a head scratcher for me.

What's J-MO's top 5 at this point? I don't think we get him.

I agree with this but would have Dauphine and Bussey swapped around.

Edit: see someone else said the same thing and you already commented.

I put Bussey ahead because I think he is more realistic.

Honestly I think its a push between Love, Bussey and Dauphine.

Bussey is the best pass catcher of the bunch so that is a big consideration.

Love is a big time student......Over 4.5 gpa while taking AP Credits. So I think part of it is the academics of Stanford.

Fortenberry this morning hinted that we are likely in the driver's seat for Love.

 

[JAllen18]

I think they're waiting on Love.

Bussey wants to be a Vol, but I think Love is higher on their board. He has an official visit in Jan, I think he'll be a vol once he visits.

agree...

I think its a delicate situation because I think they want both. It's just hard to get 3 really good backs in a class. Even though that is exactly what we did last year:rock:

 

[griddie]

we will take bussey and love. maybe four backs like bama did a few years ago. you cant pass up this tslent when they are versatile enough to play some slot as well.

That worked out well for Bama...

Sarcasm?

 

[butchna]

Sarcasm?

Obvious :salute:

 

[RockyTop85]

Considering one of their four backs will hopefully sign with us out of JUCO...

All the comments I've seen from 247 indicate that UT would accept commitments from Bussey and Love, and then let the numbers "work themselves out".

I've interpreted that as somebody will flip to another school on their own, but I'm sure Leb will stop by with some alternative explanations soon.

Leb's already stated that if Reid takes the Georgia visit? He loses Leb's protection.

If he does, he is dead to me. :zeitung_lesen:

 

[sanddune50]

Per Hubbs

Tennessee still wants Bryce Love and the Vols are in the top two with Stanford there and Tennessee feels they are in good position before each school receives an official visit after the season.

 

[westside]

We end up with Bussey and Love. Reid goes elsehwere. Just my prediction.

And no we are not taking four backs. I can pretty much guarantee that.
