On rivals it says he plans to visit us again before he makes a decision. I don't have a sub, but that's always a positive

“I hadn’t been up there in a long time, so it was a good time for me to go up there,” said Herring, who’s ranked the nation’s No. 99 overall prospect and No. 7 weakside defensive end in the 247Sports Composite for the 2017 class.

“I got to see the campus and how beautiful everything was up there this time. … They were always high on my list. (But) it helped them.”

The 6-foot-4, 256-pound Herring announced a top seven of Clemson, Alabama, Southern California, Middle Tennessee, Georgia, Tennessee and LSU, in no particular order, on June 20 following his trip to Tennessee.

He said the group of teams he’s considering is “still the same,” and while he’s not ready to name any clear leaders among his favorites, he admitted he could be moving closer to making his college choice.

“It’s soon,” Herring said. “I don’t know yet, though.”

Herring said he’s still planning to visit Clemson, Alabama and Georgia this summer, although he has yet to schedule any upcoming trips.

Tennessee previously had hosted him for its spring game last year and its home game against Oklahoma last season, and he said the Vols had impressed him both times. But he enjoyed Tennessee’s “Orange Carpet Day,” a laid-back day of fun and games that allowed him to spend time the Vols’ coaches and get to know some of their players."

Gotta be the Barnett effect right? DE recruiting should be elite with the way this staff showcases DE's

I would agree. In Athens he will be a 3-4 DE which is code for eat up space for the sexy LB's. At UT, he will be able to get after the QB.

I agree completely. Herring needs to play in a 4-3, period. He just doesn't fit a 3-4 at all. I cannot see him wanting to be a space eater with his skill set.
