'17 TN ATH Jacoby Stevens (LSU commit)

[Mullins2010]

Guys Pruitt is a bonafide recruiter. McGraw was an Ensworth kid who was with an AA 7 on 7 group led by DeVinner that sent kids all over the country. Ramsey was led to his decision by his parents, and also participated in NPA. No handlers dealt any business in either situation. Guys have to stop being sour pusses and making excuses of why guys didn't come here. 1. being instate means nothing if you as a person don't feel the bond with coaches and/ or players. 2. @ the time we had a fool for a head coach who thought he was Saban Jr and he wasn't even a viable HC option. 3. Kids leave the home state for various reasons and some we may never know or figure out and we just have to deal with them.

Lol come on

I don't know why we would cool on this kid. Looks like he has everything you would want as a hard hitting safety.

Maybe the staff saw the same film I did.

Jacoby is not as good as his star ratings. He's a good looking prospect. But definitely not elite.

Good grief

Lol

I doubt the staff watches snuff films.

His dad wants him to hold off committing. Seems to like UT but said sometimes we cool off on Jacoby. Alabama is all in

Alabama calls daily and is full steam ahead after Jacoby. If you believe that UT cooled on him i got swamp land on the strip in Las Vegas for sale. Ppl say he's over rated and all this compare his impact to tha of Gray and then let's talk. Vol fans are delusional at times. The kid is the #1 athlete in America for a reason.

 

[secking]

Alabama is ALL in

Yep, anyone who believes differently is only lying to themselves. Everyone has seen the original movie, all the sequels are the same. Kid has a long time leader, goes on one trip to Oxford, Auburn, Ttown, and it's a done deal.

I think it was Tray Bishop that just said this weekend that he had another business meeting with Gus, at least he was honest. AU getting desperate for a QB I guess but they would never buy a QB......

I don't think much of Gray either and he's committed to us.

Unlike most here I don't adjust my opinions on commits based on whether or not they are committed to us or likely to commit to us.

I was saying Hunter Johnson was overrated while he was committed to us. I'm still touting Tee Higgins as a surefire NFL star even though he's committed to Clemson.

I simply state my opinion on prospects free of any bias.

I don't recall seeing very many people at all saying he is overrated. Most are just accepting that he is most likely not coming to UT.

He thinks D4H is our spokesman. :lol:

And some people delusionally lumps the opinion of one poster into an entire fan base. I've seen exactly one guy knock Jacoby's ability. And no one really takes him serious.

You affiliated with the D1 Sports Training facility in Knoxville?

This. Loves blasting our fanbase from the opinion of one guy. Only one guy has said Steven is overrated while the rest just waive the white flag that we never had a chance

 

[CrunchingTheVolz]

He plays ball in TN. Top talent. Coaches get paid to secure these guys. Lots of reasons given we miss on some of these kids. Maybe we just need to do a better job recruiting them.

Some kids just want to go elsewhere and no amount of recruiting will change their mind. The staff can't held responsible for that.

Some posters just insist on posting on VN when most would prefer they didn't. Nothing we can do about that.

No amount of recruiting? I guess that depends what's in your recruiting bag. Am I right Clemson?

KaBoom!

 

[Nationdom]

Its easy to win with this talent.

Player for player, I can't think of a team with a better starting 22 in the country.

If Butch can't win at least 10 games in the regular season and get us to Atlanta with this team, then he isn't the answer.

We would be best served to just move on.

I agree. If we don't get to Atlanta, minimum, why keep Butch around? He's brought in enough talent to go out and get pretty much anyone we want. It'd be a lot different than the last coaching search.

 

[volatil]

Is this 4 real???


I'm out. Enough VN today.

Geez enough already.

How quickly people forget where we were three short years ago

The goal is to win championships, not 9-10 win seasons with SeC east crowns. See Mark Hunt at UGA. Georgia didn't settle and we sure as hell shouldn't. I'm still obviously supportive of Jones but if he doesn't win it this year he's probably not the guy.

I'm starting to think you should not have taken that paycut

 

[VOL-uh-tile]

2 Januaries ago we were elated to get our 7th win of the season over a sorry Iowa team. We were ridiculed for a decade and now that someone brought us out of irrelevancy into the spotlight, we want to throw it away. Give Butch 4 more years. If there is no championship to show for it, then we can talk coaching changes.
