'17 MS TE Chase Rogers (Former UT commit)

[JohnD13]

My 2 text I sent him asked that very question. Very nice stateing I am fine and understand the process. Just need to know where we stand. Nothing back... Chase has still been getting 1 a week down from 5 a week. Chase is in a group text with 20 recruits. They discuss this within group so he knows what the other boys are getting. Some more and some less. It can fall apart quickly. Chase will spend a entire week with Cam Akers and Jordan Murphy at all star game. If recruits are unhappy they talk with each other about positives and negatives of each schools experience. So we are actively looking with activity from LSU, Texas, Miami and Tx AM. What else can we do?

You do what you have to do but don't air it on a public message board. Especially after two days ago you said your son asked you to not post here for a while. I get your enthusiasm for your son and hell yes you should be his biggest advocate. Just not on here.

Thanks for your post. I would do exactly what you are doing, hedging your bets. Hopefully he still becomes a Vol.

Do what you want. There are no enforceable message board rules on parents. Have noticed that formerly active family members tend to become scarcer the longer their son stays at Tennessee. Bunch of nobodies demanding answers and their expectation of on field results/productivity. If you can handle a sandwich maker calling your son a bust or waste of scholarship, then enjoy at your pace. Hope you and your son become lifelong members of this family...ignore the cousins,aunts and uncles solving football problems while they're waiting to win the lottery.

I don't like where this is heading based on the lack of responsiveness, but who knows? Scott could even have one foot out the door himself.

No matter how this ends, I appreciate the perspective that Mr. Rogers had given.

 

[QuickSmurf]

So what I said is true. Thanks. I appreciate the support.

Spinning a natural occurrence fun for ya huh?

If we were voting, like today, I would vote that it is Scott. No telling what he has fed or not fed Butch if he is planning an exit. You know he is aware there will be an OC change and he is probably aware it will not be him.

If he were to leave it would be entirely is choice IMO. He's the reason we are in on the South FLORIDA kids.

 

[Roustabout]

You referring to it as a "scholly" leads me to believe you aren't taking it very seriously or you are not who you say you are.

Either way I wish Chase a great college career wherever that may be.

You are obviously an idiot.

If Scott has cut off contact with Rogers because he is leaving then why would contact and interest from Scott increase with the other TE from Florida?

When I first seen Mr Rogers post the bad news, I thought perhaps this had more to do with the players we had on campus than it did picking up a second TE. However, I see that Brooks is moving to OL. This offense can't have enough tall TE's that can catch.

You are obviously an idiot.

Ok champ. You are obviously a gullible fool. See how easy that is?

You were responding to me as if I said I'm related to Chase. Im not, nor have I implied that I am. Therefore, my comment is not an ad hominem, but based on fact that you actually are an idiot.

 

[bignewt]

man you're right! I should give up this high paying job and college degree and go roustabout! Maybe pick up some latin...

Uh, ok, you look a little silly.

 

[bignewt]

Yeah I mistook roustabout for rockashaw I know, a mistake you cannot come back from. I will forever be the village idiot. Shame.

It will be ok. We will beat Kentucky on Saturday.

Typical hippie libertarian.

As long as we're clear on that.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Bignewt, don't be hard on yourself...majority of us have had you tabbed as the village idiot for VN for quite sometime now

 

[BondJamesBond]

Typical hippie libertarian.

He must be smart to be a librarian.

 

[InVOLuntary]

I think the world of ol' Bignewt.

I feel validated just having a role.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

I feel validated just having a role.

Now hold on there bignewt...using the word validated may have just cost you the role of VN Village Idiot.

Dang, such a promising career cut short by inadvertently divulging a vocabulary that definitely precludes him from the sanctity of being said Village Idiot...
