"It was a lot of fun," Clark said. "It was an amazing time. I had a lot of fun. This is the first game I'd been to in a long time and I got to see the Vol Walk and I got to see Neyland Stadium filled with fans."

"It was a lot different coming back as a recruit because I got to see some behind the scenes stuff and I got to see the Vol Walk for the first time and that was really cool seeing all the fans waiting for the coaches and players to walk into Neyland Stadium," Clark said. "Then, being on the field in Neyland before the game was pretty breathtaking."

"Right now I don't really have any favorites but I can honestly say I really like Tennessee a lot and I can see myself going there," Clark said.

On Clark's father's thoughts.

"He said he really liked it. He said it brought back a lot of memories from when the was a teenager," Clark explained. "He told me he and his buddies used to go down there and watch them play Alabama every year so it brought back some memories for him."

"I've been watching their games and seeing how coach Jones has been doing with the team and I think in a couple of years they're going to have a really good team and that's something that I am considering being a part of," Clark said.

“I had an amazing time. It was really a lot of fun[.] That was the first Tennessee game I’ve been to since I was younger, so that was pretty exciting for me, getting to see the Vol Walk and getting to go into Neyland Stadium and seeing it pretty much packed.”

“Going into the game, I expected Neyland Stadium — it being huge and hearing about the Vol Walk and everything — I expected it to be really exciting. But it was a lot more exciting than my expectations,” said Clark, who already has received 11 scholarship offers to date.

“Getting to see the fans standing there waiting for the players and the coaches to come walking into Neyland Stadium, I thought that was really cool. And then going down onto the field before the game and looking up into Neyland Stadium and watching people take their seats, it was just really breathtaking.”

“I got to talk to Coach Stripling and Coach Mahoney a lot,” Clark said. “Those were the two I talked to the most. They were just telling me how they really would love me to come to Tennessee and that they really want me there, and they want me to come back as much as possible.”

Right now, he's thinking about making his decision during his senior season or maybe a little bit before.

Sounds like a Tennessee UVA battle

That's really not an option unless he wants the UVA education- kind of like Vandy. Although UVA is getting a couple of 5 stars this year, I don't see them doing much more in the ACC. FSU, Clemson, and Miami have improved programs, and I think you will see Maryland and NC State be better soon.

"Clark is becoming a hot commodity in the recruiting world.

"The ones recruiting me really hard right now are Tennessee, Penn State and Duke," he said. "Right now I don't have any other visits planned because the season is winding down. If I had to guess where my next offer would come from I would say Ohio State or Georgia. I've been talking to them a lot recently. I've been getting a lot of mail from Auburn and Michigan State. I'll get in touch with them soon."

Clark is planning on going to the Under Armour All-American Combine."

O-Line class of Jones, Richmond, Stewart and Clark looks likely.

OL is probably the one weak link about the 2014 class.

Weak link? I disagree. Thomas, Brown, Blair and Raulerson is a damn good haul, IMO. And the staff is still trying to land a top tier OT. Honestly, I don't see any position group being a weak link in this class.

I think that was just worded poorly. I don't think he's calling them weak, just saying that they are solid players with no superstar. Still a good group
