'17 TN LB Jacob Phillips

This guy showed me that he is indeed elite. I've watched a few games of his this year and he always played well, man among boys. UT needs to somehow get him on board, day one starter playing beside Kirkland imo.

Don't think that's going to happen. He said some pretty disparaging things about the staff. Somebody is in his ear dissing our coaches. Too bad.
 
I'm really shocked on why the staff didn't pursue Phillips hard .

Blew two straight MLB recruitments in back to back years apparently. Dodson last year ended up pretty good and thinking Kirkland is more suited for WIll and not Mike. He struggles getting team lined up to me.

Should have always been a take at LB. Just another miss by our staff. Disappointing.
You do realize your whole post is a contradiction in itself, right?

"Should have always been a take" indicates that the staff DIDN'T pursue him. "Just another miss by our staff" indicates the staff DID pursue him and whiffed.


"LOL"

I think you guys are mixing him up with a guy named Jaelen (sp?) Phillips who I believe they said in the Army All-American was a UCLA commit.

No they're talking about Jacob Phillips

This kid played with Hurd at some point during high school. I'm sure hurd bad mouthed the program to him

Hurd did no such thing @ all but also very few rom Beech still associate with Hurd. If it remember correctly he came after Hurd was gone. I can't seem to remember Jacob there then.

The UT backed camp organization supposedly being stood up in middle Tennessee would point to a different conclusion. It may not be Buck specifically but possibly some folks within the organization.

I'll say this and then be done with this because its all stupid, and rumors or lies started by UT fans. We do not steer any kid an which a way. Ppl are still talking about our camp. Do you think UT can stand someone up? Guys Oklahoma, Alabama, LSU, UGA, Memphis, SCe, USC, Miss St, Ole Miss were a few to name were there. You explain to me who it hurt us or them? Last who does Chandler train with? You have to stop listening to make believe stories of the fake victimized message board world who think someone is against them. UT could've had Jacob it's all their fault, and no don't blame Thig for this. He's the 1 who offered early.

It's been said the staff stopped recruiting him for a while then realized their mistake. Like I said, he should have ALWAYS been a priority and a take.

Sounds so Dooleyish with the recruiting rank to match. Who were they pursuing over him?

They were talking about during the game. They talked about both of them but at the time it was when the west was on the field and someone mentioned that they were really pumping up Jacob Phillips. At that point in time they were talking about the other Phillips.

Not directing this at you but the board in general.
