'15 TN WR Van Jefferson

[Nationdom]

Urbz is probably using the depth chart issue against us. We have beat him out for recruits b4 and we will do it again.

Prolly using two natty champs, a few undefeated seasons as well.

Plus, he would be playing with too many 3 stars.

Obviously not using his WR production

Right now, whenever I hear a recruit is leaning to another school, I am OK with it. And I don't care who it is. There is only one reason for this and it is because CBJ feels we can do better or he has another plan for a better player at a position of need. JMO In butch I trust

Can't bet against Butch. Ever. He's beaten out several national championship winning coaches for high profile recruits.

Butch, baby.

 

[MockingVol]

This is the flip side of what is currently happening with Tuttle. OSU is making a trying push, but will it be enough to overcome that huge lead we had?

I think we get both though because Butch takes what Butch wants.

Agree.

He'll probably take him to the kitchen as well. There he'll show Van all the cupcakes he'll get to play against if he chooses Ohio State.

Told y'all to be prepared for this.

When he has had great qb play, he does well. Tebow, (tebow and leake in 2006), and Alex smith at Utah, and then B Miller at OSU (not to mention he was in the pathetic big 10)

But when he doesn't have good qb play..... See post-Tebow year at Florida.... A heartbreaking (literally) .500 regular season

Of course you would reduce National Championships to trifling abbreviations. Say that sentence out loud and see how it sounds. :crazy:

I'm sure that one decent receiver in the NFL is a real big selling point for Urbs.

My head hurts trying to think of other selling points.

Too callous?

Of course maybe van could put on some weight and move to TE. Urbs has a killer selling point for that.

Hubbs just said OSU has the momentum with Jefferson right now. It may be time to start looking at other receiver candidates. Dexter Neal could be one to watch.

What the fruit lovin' billy goat!!??

Hubbs needs to grow some Kahoonas. Butch has this. Chill.

If Hubbs said it, it's true

GFW putting his ecred on the line. I like it!

This actually exists?

 

[BleedorangeinGA]

I think it’s close between OSU and UT in the hearts of Van and his parents. I also think even if he commits to either school this weekend, this thing is far from over. With that said, come NSD I believe he signs with UT

 

[westside]

this from a poster on GQ claiming to be close to van's recruitment...

He is like any kid. He loves the last place he visits. However, two big factors will play into van's recruitment. The wr coach and the players on the team.

He has zero relationship with osu's wr coach. There is a reason urban won't let the guy recruit Van. Urban is recruiting Van not the wr coach. The point is being made to Van regarding the coaching he would receive at OSU.

Second, he has a very good relationship with josh Malone.

Also there is a draw that his dad can see him play at Tennessee and Van also has the ability to drive on Sundays to watch his dad coach. Butch has done a great job with Van. They talked for a little bit yesterday and butch did great.

I do like the sound of this.

No he didn't.

He said that OSU "seemed to have the momentum right now."

I know that doesn't seem like an important distinction, but when you have followed VQ for a while, you know that it is.

OSU has the momentum = He is going to OSU.

OSU seems to have the momentum = There is a public perception that he may go to OSU.

 

[KBVol]

Is Van friends with some of the current commits or current players?

Very close to Malone in particular.

 

[LotteryPick]

Very close to Malone in particular.

I feel like this should put us over the top.
