This guy will be on board very soon.

Yup. IMO his buddy Mathews will be right behind him.

I agree. I think Bryce ends up a Vol I just haven't heard that he's close to making a decision and there is the A&M part of it.

I'm not sure the A&M angle is much to worry about there. A&M took (5) OTs in 2014. They have (3) more so far in 2015 and have the (2) top OTs for 2016 already committed. Still no offer to Mathews.

I think he's ours.

Good points. Even with an offer I'm not sure how much difference it would make. It seems that the A&M chatter is much like the OSU chatter last year with Barnett. Lots of people just assumed that's where he wanted to go which wasn't true.

As for the stars, both are already considered 4*s by 247 FWIW.

I wish I could help you out but I am no scout, far from it. The thing I hear over and over are great/quick feet, great hands, physical size that you can't coach it's just a gift. I think their coaches believe they have beyond college level potential but I've also read on these boards that OL are often the toughest to project. There are others here who are better about evaluating linemen for sure. Wish I could help more.

Great feet

It will be in the Tate Matthews show. Callahan said it looks like Tennessee is the heavy favorite.
Pre-Boom!

A top offensive lineman this early is more than awesome

I don' think space for 2016 is a problem at this point.

Obviously you're kidding, but I feel like this will be a "problem" every year butch is here. Those who are OCD about numbers but love to follow recruiting (myself included) are going to learn to deal with it.
