Dont JUCO prospects require a 2.5 GPA now or something like that? Think I remember reading an article that says the minimum core GPA was raised from 2.0 to 2.5 for JUCO transfers.

Per P Fort

I don't know that there's one that would receive the traditional, "I like where Tennessee is," indicating an impending commitment.

But, I think they are the team to beat with Jordan Bonner. I think they are trending with the JaMarcus King kid at corner.

King is scheduled to be here North Texas weekend, Nov. 14.

He told me he wasn't sure if he would take his Florida visit as of now. I do think some other teams will jump in the mix at some point, just not sure who yet.

Interesting Fort and Hubbs are willing to admit the "I like where Tennessee" is means what it means.

I found that kind of funny too. Maybe we can get this kid to pull the trigger on his visit. He could step in and start day one.

Huge get. We need instant impact at corner opposite Justin Martin next year. Especially with Cam all but gone.

Going heavy Juco on defense it appears.

I think Butch sees that we're close. We're a couple of players away from being SEC champions. JUCOs provide more instant impact than true freshmen. Offense looks set to dominate next year. We need instant impact on D. Especially at CB since we'll most likely lose Cam.

I notice they tend to go after the 3 to play 3 guys. And with Cam Sutton more than likely gone after this year, we will need someone we can slide in opposite Justin Martin.

Couple of questions:

1. What makes you think this guy will come in and start on day 1? (Not saying he won't, just curious).

2.) Doesn't he have academic uncertainties? If so, with our limited numbers, is he worth the risk?

I really like his size and speed. He is really physical too. He has nice highlights. Sutton is likely gone and no one else has proved a thing to me. Playing time is there for the taking. Martin has shown flashes. Moseley has a lot of potential, but just hasn't broke out yet. Gaulden should be solid. I have high hopes for both Abernathy and Osborne.

Emmanuel Moseley is quickly earning himself a spot on the bench. Honestly, Malik Foreman and E. Moseley are not SEC quality players. Butch Jones probably shouldn't have accepted their commitment. But then again, hindsite is 20/20.

They're providing quality snaps. But only because of fall camp injuries. There are others I would put in that category.

What is so frustrating is that they both have all the tools.

Meh on Foreman. He's puny, narrow shoulders. Short arms. Hard worker but not an SEC athlete. Moseley is a waife too but has the long arms and speed a corner needs just lacks ball skills. Martins and Cams need to be signed every class or every other class.

The one thing I have become accustomed to is clearly seeing the back of their jerseys as they are chasing down the WR(s) that just burned them. When opposing offensive coordinators see their game film, they can't help but exploit them.

Per Hubbs

Throughout the month of November we expect Tennessee to host several junior college players including its trio of junior college commitments as well as defensive lineman Jordan Bonner and cornerback JaMarcus King. We wouldn't be surprised if others set up to visit Knoxville as well.

King and Bonner are both likely to visit during the Homecoming weekend when the Vols take on North Texas.

King told Volquest.com earlier this week he wasn't sure if he would take his Florida visit and as of now only for sure knows that he will see Tennessee. That certainly would be a development in Tennessee's favor.

Per Hubbs

Tennessee is gearing up for its final official visit weekend of the season and there should be a good number of visitors in for that weekend and most, if not all, of the official visitors will be junior college prospects.

As of now, this is who we are expecting in on an official visit that weekend:

Jeff George
Alexis Johnson
DJ Henderson
Jordan Bonner
Jonathan Kongbo
Stephan Robsinson

While, that's subject to change, that's what we're hearing as of late this week. Some may be wondering why JaMarcus King's name isn't on there and that's due to his grade situation from what we understand.

Remember, both Auburn and Florida backed off from him earlier in the process and Tennessee seems to be the latest to do that.
