Looks legit to me. Very good catching ability I don't care what kind of competition he is playing.

Sure, we like every commit and want to see them bumped but I fell like some you can tell by watching are better than their early ranking. His hypothetical bump is JMO.
Fair enough.

My comment was not in regards to Chase, his film definitely looks good.

Was just a comment in general.

Per Callabash at 247 Dotson had a monster visit to Ohio St recently, and has cooled on us since Elder left.

Looks like he splits out a lot also, seems versatile and some very good hands.

On the 247 article, one of the posters claimed to have coached him and raved about his work ethic. Apparently OM signed three TEs last month and slow played him (his dad was a walk on at OM).

Really like this kid's film. Not sure what level of competition he plays, but he plays physical, has good hands and can catch away from his body, and enough speed to separate from the defense.

Good pickup!

In the year we signed Helm and Wolf, Helm was the higher rated player and wowed at camps. Once they got on campus and Wolf got a sliver of daylight, he never looked back.

I trust this staff on the TE evaluations. Boom!!

Stoked. IMO we have 2 very solid players that are committed and currently underrated. They will be very good players.

The news Monday didn’t lack positivity for Vol Nation as it was but even more smiles made their way through the Tennessee coaching staff at the Anderson Training Center as Chase Rogers placed a call to let them know he decided Tennessee is the place for him and his college football.

“I called (Tennessee) coach (Larry) Scott and he put me on speaker and all the coaches heard me,” Rogers told InsideTennessee. “He passed me around and I talked to all the coaches except coach (Butch) Jones. I’m going to talk to him tomorrow. He messaged me and is going to talk to me tomorrow because he was tied up with some stuff.
“It was yelling in the background, it was great. I talked to Scott, my heart was racing, I was just excited. It was a great feeling.”

Rogers did not expect to see everything that was laid out before him while he was in Knoxville for the first time. On top of that, the Tennessee coaches were far more personable than other staffs he’s known.

“Well, I went up there expecting it to not be that state of the art with the facilities and stuff. I was just amazed. That was really eye-opening,” Rogers said. “Then with everyone there, it was like I was family and they were family. It was like one big family. After talking to (Tennessee running backs) coach (Robert) Gillespie, coach Jones and coach Scott, they just made me feel like I was at home and everyone there did.

“My biggest thing when choosing a school was my position coach. I want someone who’s going to push me, have faith in me and believe in me from the beginning and coach Scott fits that person. He’s a great guy. I can’t wait to spend my years in college with him.
“It feels good to be wanted somewhere.

I mean considering his offer list we were definitely the best of his options. Seemed like a no brainer especially if he had a desire to end it early. Call me crazy but that looks like terrible competition he's up against. Anyone knows what classification he plays in?

Solid blocker, also lines up as an H-Back in the offense on occasion. Seems like a solid fit for our offense.

Found this quote from a State fan about Rogers on an SDS article.

Regardless of recent recruits, we are short at the position. This kid is a little short for a tight end, but but has the athleticism and versatility to move from WO to Slot, TE, he runs the ball with those shovel passes. Blocks very well and moves like a RB when he gets the ball, aided by what look like very good hands. No, this will not stand, not at all.
