'15 TN OT Drew Richmond (Former Ole Miss commit)

[RiseToTheTop]

The holding on down The stretch part makes me feel good. Just bc the way they said it seems like he may have indicated he's gonna be a vol and now we just ride out the next few days.

The kids not even gonna tell Hugh, the guy he's been committed to for 6 months he gone. Ouch.

I hope Richmond turns his phone off until tomorrow. We've landed him barring Freeze turning this around before midnight.

Richmond won't sign with UT. He'll be last years version of Adoree Jackson, only he made it closer to signing day than Jackson did.

Regardless of what happens Wed, you have to give Coach Jones & Co. props for going all out and recruiting their collective rears off to have Drew join the Vols. There's no quit in him and that's something other programs should be worried about going forward.

We entered the weekend trailing for Allen and with Richmond as a desperate fantasy...no matter what happens, this is better. :good!:

He technically can't unless he does tonight right?

 

[865dude]

He shouldn't have to cut block.

Cut blocks are the last resort for outmatched O linemen.

So that says a lot about Richmond's skill and power.

Bump

I'm not sure, but someone said they can still speak on the phone. Just no face to face.

 

[Coug]

Lol! Just my prediction.

Can still talk via the phone. Just can not talk face to face.

It's a long ride home in bad weather. You can bet Freeze is wearing his phone out letting him know his momma would already be home after a game there. Fortunately, I think him and his mom see the the direction the program is rapidly moving in and the recruits we have that will continue to move it in that direction and they want to be part of it.

What did the Austin Price article say?

It's a video from his show with Fort and Brice where they discussed Richmond and this weekends visit. Brice said flat out that UT is the frontrunner right now. Just need to hold on.

Ole Miss will make contact. You can count on that.

Just like they didn't tell their qb about the senior bowl

He may not sign with Tenn (I think he will though) but there are no comparisons with Adoree Jackson who was the longest of longshots from the start.

If Fortenberry's info about Richmond not responding to texts from Ole Miss players this weekend is true and in Fortenberry's words was "cut off from them" than this looks much better than some of you want to allow yourselves to believe.

Version of AJ? IIRC, AJ eliminated UT weeks in advance when he listed his top 5. That was as far as that recruitment went. Drew just visited UT on the final weekend, while committed to another school. Not really like AJ at all, IMO.

What did the Austin Price article say?

TN did everything TN could have done, and Richmond had a great visit. Drew says he is not talking and will just send his LOI to his school on Wednesday.

Article sounded about as good for TN as you could hope considering where TN stood before the visit. Made it sound like TN has the momentum but said it will be interesting to see how the next 72 hours around Ole Miss supporters in Memphis will affect the final decision.
