'16 NC RB BJ Emmons

Ill say again...if he qualifies hes a Vol. Its a done deal. Gonna need a strong academic year and possibly summer school. But it can be done. Tennessee has a guy on staff that as soon as players commit he walks them through how to qualify.

What happens if he doesn't qualify? We need a RB this class

Rucker update...

"Just spoke with four-star RB prospect B.J. Emmons — No. 107 overall in the 247Sports Composite — from North Carolina.
Couple of quick things.

- Tennessee definitely helped its cause today. "Today was a good day for Tennessee. Definitely a good day." Said he wants to come back again as soon as possible.

- He's "wide open" and "definitely" won't make a decision until February, wants to take all five official visits. Florida is locked in for an official. Tennessee almost certainly will get one, too.

- He feels "a lot less pressure" now that he's de-committed from Georgia, and that the distance between him and the Dawgs just kept getting "bigger and bigger" over time, and that it's a long way from February but he doesn't see himself going to Georgia. Wouldn't rule it out, though.

- He definitely likes Tennessee and Alabama, but Florida State is definitely in the picture, too. He said that's the one non-SEC school he's definitely interested in.
————————
JMO, but this kid seems like one who's definitely going to soak in the recruiting experience for a while and doesn't want to commit anywhere for a while. But he definitely likes Tennessee a lot, and he said Tennessee isn't pressuring him to commit or anything like that, which is probably a good idea for Tennessee's sake."

"It's not all about football," Emmons said. "It's about having fun and coach (Butch) Jones is most definitely a person that knows how to do everything outside of football and football-wise." "Everyone is on the same page and it's like family," Emmons said. "From the moment you walk through the door till the moment you leave, everyone is united as one. That's what makes everything good every time."

"Not everyone runs the same," Emmons said. "I think I can bring a different kind of format to it the way I run the ball so Jalen can do one thing and I can do something else. I'm like a card game. Whatever I have in my hand is what I'm going to deal and if you can't handle that then oh well."

"Coach G is good dude," Emmons said. "He coaches you to be the best person you are and that's all you can ask for. That's always good anywhere you go."

"I know it wasn't a camp day, but nothing was boring," Emmons said. "It was a good Tennessee day. I want to get back whenever I can."

Think he qualifies?

Not being a homer when I say this, but the sooner he verbals to UT the better. Right now he probably has a guidance counselor advising him. UT has a staff member that will guide him step by step to qualify. If he verbals before summer ends then I say its 85% he gets in. Every week after that he waits it goes down

UGA and Wisconsin offers lead me to believe this kid has some great potential. Hope he gets his academic work sorted out
