'17 LA CB Cheyenne Labruzza (UT signeee)

One of the best...The best goes to Warriors daddy IMO.

Dale Carter is my all time favorite and probably best DB to ever play at UT, except for maybe Eric Berry. But didn't Dale Carter play a little safety too. And didn't Berry playing a little CB his freshman. So, IMO, the best lock down CB in UT history is Terry McDanial

:dunno: Having a tough time finding an argument here.

McDaniel is one of my favorites too.

We didnt pass on Mathieu. We were his first sec offer after he camped in Knoxville. He just chose LSU the minute they offered, as with most La kids.

Tyrann's Rivals pic is with his shirt off. That pic was taken in our in-door training facility.

I like Sutton more than McDaniel at CB. His first two years he was ridiculous. Third year I think he was injured personally the majority of it. He did not want to hit after the Oklahoma game. Not like him at all. This past year he was back to form early and about to dominate. My favorite CB to watch play in the Orange personally.

Yes!! I still remember Kiper bemoaning that it was way too early when the Raiders drafted him in the first round. So glad that he proved him wrong.

Sutton is definitely towards the top of my list, I just prefer a couple of others more. Good thing about having talented guys, even if you don't agree on which is your favorite/or the best, they are all great.

Now we just need to have more of them to debate over.

Very happy this kid is going to officially be a Vol tomorrow. IMO he is not only one of the most underrated cornerbacks in this class but one of the most underrated players in the class period. Go Vols baby!

Labruzza ultimately committed to Tennessee over in-state LSU because the Vols simply recruited him the hardest from Day 1. The Tigers tried to slow-play the corner, then upping their attention in January with multiple coaching visits, including an in-home trip from Ed Orgeron. Labruzza’s family was a bit thrown-off by the visit with Orgeron, though, as Cheyenne, a 4.0 student, wants to major in engineering and Orgeron hurried through the discussion and told him another major would be much easier at LSU. Conversely, Tennessee welcomed Labruzza’s confidence that the corner could juggle both academics and athletics. One of the key reasons Labruzza stuck with Tennessee in the end was loyalty. During one visit last summer, Cheyenne was late coming to campus after getting stuck in traffic in Chattanooga, and all the coaches, including Butch Jones — who was set to be home with their families –instead waited around for Labruzza and was standing there at the front door to greet him. As Cheynne’s brother Tracy said, “This is it, son. These people make you feel like you’re at home.”

Lol...Orgeron doing Orgeron things. Nice to see a kid spurn the in-state school elsewhere, because they slow-played him. Seems like that only happens to us.

"Yaw yaw, school hard. Yaw yaw football.."

lol I read that part of the story and wondered if the kid was insulted by the insinuation. Labruzza is obviously serious about his academics if he is a 4.0 student.

I took as Orgeron didn't want him taking classes that might interfere with his focus on footbaw. We know according to Josh Dobbs himself, that his strenuous major may have cost us the SC game...Do we want this? It is a interesting quandary. I like having a team full of young men I can pull for, but I don't want to lose to SC either..what do you guys think? It is a tough question.
