There is no way this kid chooses UT. The visit I'm sure was just a formality. We do very poorly with kids from the west side of TN to begin with. Unless Butch outright offered him cash there is no way he comes to Knoxville given where our program will be next year.

His sister works at UT-K. UT has always been high on the list.

We don't do particularly well in the Memphis public school system. Outide of that, west TN has been quite favorable to us, Jackson in particular. Al Wilson, Daniel Brooks, Drae Bowles (all from Jackson), Chad Clifton, Will Ofenheusle, all from west TN. There isn't a ton of legit SEC-level talent between Memphis public and Nashville, but we get more of the guys that we want than we lose.

We've been the favorite for months, his sister is employed by Tennessee, even Ohio State insiders are going with Tennessee, and we had the last visit. You're right though. There is no way he picks us. Not even the slightest chance.

Just got a couple of photo sent to me from USJ....Trey makes Saban look like a midget! Urban hanging with students but Trey not one of them. I can't figure out how to get the photo from my phone to this thread. If someone that knows how will send me their e-mail or cell#, I will forward the photos, so you can post.

Will get smith so...

1.Smith
3. Chandler
5. Gray
Top 10- Bumphus
Fant top 20
Safety from Overton is a fringe 3/4* top 15 Tennessee player

So 6... Not too bad. Missing out on tee Higgins just has you butt hurt still I guess

Because that has worked so well in recruiting this year. Clemson says hello.

Why does everyone act as if they completely raided the state this season? Tee was a big loss. I get it. Other than that, they landed Rogers who is the third best receiver in the state and Richardson who is the third best running back. I wanted Tee, but the other too are average at best. I'll take Chandler over Richardson and Murphy over Rogers every day of the week.

Murphy is one of the most underrated, and yet most talented WRs in this class.

Not saying we will definitely get him, but you might want to read up on the situation before you go any further. Oh, and most of west TN is a majority of Vols fans. Rural west TN is very orange.

When you type a post, click "attach".
That takes you to another page, click upload from library, and choose the pic. Then under that, the .jpg will show up, click that and it will take it to your pic.
Copy that that pic, then go back to your original reply and paste the pic.

This is just a situation of a fan rooting for a coach to fail in games and recruiting. Kind of sad really.

I agree. Almost all orange in NW TN with the exception of a few bandwagon Bama fans.

Depending on the recruiting service you look at we have missed out on at least 6 of the top 10 players in the state so far. Even if we get Smith, still batting less than. 500 in your back yard.
