Clemson is scared they are going to lose him. Reminds me of James Cofer and Terry Minor. They visited Clemson, Danny paid them, then came to UT for great careers! Suck it CU Tigers TF is next!!!

To be fair, we said the same thing about Ole Miss and their recruits. :peace2:

But if that's how Clemson justifies losing a player to UT, so be it. It's not like UT is a second-rate school with sub-par facilities in the middle of nowhere. Anyone with an objective look at things will see that. I can certainly understand how a mom would want her son close, however, UT isn't that far away. Clemson is closer, but it's almost negligible when it comes to travel time. An extra hour isn't far.

We'll see what happens and what Tavien says in the next few weeks. By then we'll know if the interest has some staying power.

I see the OP on that site will be the Kevin Bacon in Animal House.

As Feaster visiting SEC schools, "All is well, nothing to see here." Does the Op remember, Clemson snatches defeat from the jaws of victory

The amusing part to me is they accuse Feaster of going for a free trip all expenses paid and act as if he is more interested in a school than he really is. In the very same breath the dixiecrat writing that nonsense talks about how great the Feasters character is due to them duping one school and planning to stay with another one all along. I can't believe those fools believe the tripe they are typing.

It appears to me as if, Feaster like most kids, realize they are making a 4 year decision. He wants to make sure its his best decision for him before there is no turning back. He saw what our coaches had to offer which apparently included honesty(based on his comment) and liked what he saw. Should be an interesting recruitment to follow. Hope we can get Feaster and Mom back for an OV.

Ole Miss has a track record with Eddie Orgeron. Orgeron is Freeze's mentor. And I don't remember a viral post of any 5 star receivers at UT on their OV with a wad of cash, 2 chicks, and mixed drinks. A couple of differences in the schools and the coaches that run them.

Funniest part of this is if he received illegal benefits, he would be ineligible to play for them or anyone else. This guy is acting like he's turning in Tennessee but he failed to see the consequence for the player.

I know every fanbase has their idiots, but this guy...

Lol the guy acts like every major program doesn't somehow give benefits to top recruits.... I am sure we do it. They do it too.

Under the table of course

Meet a judge in FL a few months ago who was a FSU grad. The man could not have cared less about the SEC, but saw me wearing a Vols hat. Started talking to him about football, and we ended up on the topic of Ole Miss. His thoughts were; how is Ole Miss recruiting like they are? They have to be cheating... It's not just a SEC thing. People notice when teams with zero tradition start rolling in 5 star recruits. Freeze is a great coach, but Ole Miss, outside the campus life and girls, doesn't have tons going for it when it comes to football tradition. It's 110% possible to start something out of nothing, but when it happens people are going to question the success. That's just how life goes.

Those are fair points. I'll take Coach Jones over Freeze any day. Freeze comes off as disingenuous to me.

Read the top post. Interesting. I highly doubt Dabo would give Feaster the boot. The whole topic is also hilarious. They worried.

I've spent my fair share of time browsing South Carolina and Vandy boards over the last few years, but nothing I've ever read on either of those sites even compares to the hilarity of Tigernet.

Your point is well taken but Ole Miss does have a tradition of excellence on the gridiron. You simply have to go back a long, long way. Not as far back as Vandy but a long way nonetheless. From 1950-1965, they were the winningest program in the country, both in terms of absolute wins (128) and winning pct. (.77941). See I-A Winning Percentage 1950-1965.

Wow. I have to admit, I was alive when Ole Miss was good.....in diapers, but alive. I was probably two when they began their 50 years of sucking.

Hmmm. Learn something new every day. Could have sworn they sucked my whole life......guess I was wrong.

In other words, they were good before there was racial integration in the SEC and the fall of Jim Crow meant the fall of Ole Miss. Ole Miss was the last SEC team to have a black player, Ben Williams 1972. (fwiw, Tennessee was the 2nd to have one, Lester McClain 1968). The timing of their collapse with the advances made in Civil Rights is not a coincidence. Thankfully, racial segregation is now as archaic as an Ole Miss SEC title. A relic of the past never to be revisited again.
