'17 GA LB Solon Page III (UT signee)

[Go Fight Win]

Although I did like Lawson. Still, if we close out like we should, upgrading

 

[Catbone]

You saying we get Ray?? I thought Lawson was a DE. Unless you mean Conliffe is an upgrade at DT then I agree

U da man.

 

[BondJamesBond]

Where are the negas? Why aren't they in here discussing 3*U? Oh. Is it because this kid got a big bump and another *. You'd think Vol fans would be excited.

Vol fans are. #gbo

Staff saw Lawson as someone who ends up at DT

 

[31VFL]

He is now 338 nationally on 247. One of the highest 3*'s.

In which case, I wholeheartedly agree that Concliffe is an upgrade. I believe we have quietly put together an excellent D-Line class this year.

 

[jspvol76]

Still a 3 star,

Hit and miss. Hopefully, Page is the real deal. They've missed on a bunch too, though

Not sure who that bunch includes, but every coaching staff has misses.

Are you talking about Page? Because if so, um thats not true.

Gotcha. I agree

 

[Nash_Vol97]

That was quite a bump! Congrats to Page and nice eval by the staff.

 

[rdk4121]

This guy seems like an incredible tackler. Maybe not the biggest hitter, but very athletic and can cover a lot of ground. Reminds me of Zach Cunningham from Vandy. Very deserving of his bump.

Vols LB commit makes big move in rankings

One of Tennessee's earliest commitments for the 2017 class made a big jump in 247Sports' rankings Monday coming off an impressive senior season.

Three-star linebacker Solon Page III of Kell High School in Marietta, Ga., climbed more than 600 spots and now is ranked by 247Sports as the nation's No. 338 overall prospect and No. 26 outside linebacker in the 2017 class.

The move also helped the 6-foot-2, 207-pound Page — who has been committed to the Vols since April — vault more than 200 spots in the industry-generated 247Sports Composite rankings, where he's now the nation's No. 576 overall prospect and No. 39 outside linebacker.

Page, one of four linebackers currently committed to Tennessee in the 2017 class, was named Georgia's Class AAAAA defensive player of the year last month by the Georgia Sports Writers Association.

He piled up 161 tackles, including 22 for losses, along with two sacks, one interception and four forced fumbles during his senior season, helping Kell reach the Class AAAAA state semifinals and finish with an 11-3 record.

Why was this kid rated so low to start? Didn't camp enough?

I mean 161 tackles with 22 TFL, 4 forced fumbles, 2 sacks, and one interception is pretty dang impressive. This is against good competition too right?

Because recruiting sites suck?

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Can't believe he isn't a 4 star with those numbers

Yes, very good competition.

I can't remember exactly why he was rated low early. I believe there is some discussion about it in this thread, around the time of his commitment.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Maybe his size? Going to have to gain weight to play in the SEC

 

[IndianaVolunteer]

My bad. I only looked at the composite score.

You're the reason we can't have nice things. Jesus, woman.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Well either way I'm glad he's gonna be a Vol.
