'17 TN OL/DT Trey Smith (UT commit 12/6/2016)

Believe what you want

She's right. What happened with Drae will have no affect whatsoever.

 

[VolsnCards5]

Looks like he will commit in December and enroll in January.

USJ football's Trey Smith rated No. 1 in ESPN's Top 300

Saw on an ESPN recruiting special today they were talking about top recruits and their visits. I saw Mr. Smith in a Clemson jersey dabbin' with Dabo on one of his visits. I was like NOOOOOOO!!!!

I really wish we could stop with the dabbing that is played out big time. This is coming from a 27 year old. I can't imagine how you old farts feel about it.

 

[Crazy Ivan]

I lived there for a while, so I will. Thanks though.

I was born and raised there and agree with you.

And the part where he said he grew up an Alabama fan. :sick:

Jackson's not that small. And they went to different schools. Plus, people that want to believe Drae wouldn't know which story to believe.

I have actually talked to trey dad about this. They are well aware of the situation but his dad didn't seem like it affected them very much. He said butch was really down to earth and agreed with me that he did all he could do as a coach and kick the guys off the team.

Glad to see this young man number 1 in the nation per ESPN. Hope he follows in his family's footsteps and comes to UT.

Trey Smith is a great player, but he isn't even the best player in the state. ESPN doing ridiculous things again.

I think he is. He has the best OT tape I've seen in hs

 

[Montrell Hardy]

I agree. I'd have him as the #1 prospect in the state as well.

Junior Season - Trey Smith highlights - Hudl

In case you haven't watched Trey throwing folks around. Lord have mercy he's either really strong or he's tossing midgets in this highlight reel. I'm not sure which is the case, but it looks damn impressive.

Ughhhh, I can see why ESPN has him the #1 overall player in the country. I know it's against high school competition but he's got really good balance whose strong enough to pull or just flat out shove defenders out of the way. Moves really well for his size too.

It's a good argument to have, but I think Tee Higgins is the best player in the state for the last 2 years.

According to those from the Jackson area on TOS, it sounds as if former Vol Trey Teague along with CAK's former HC and current USJ coach Rusty Bradley are working on swinging this recruit to the good guys. TIFWIW.

Also born there, also agree.

 

[UT_King]

Don't post much in here

But just remember Dre was from Jackson and hopefully that doesn't have any negative impact on us getting Trey

Everybody knows everybody

No impact whatsoever. I'm an insider inside this thread inside my mind. :good!:

Edit: I'm being serious. No impact for multiple reasons, most have been stated already.

 

[UT_King]

Agreed based on position.

He's also measurably a TN prospect, and that's pretty awesome too.

Destroying 160LB DE that also plays in the band at half is fun to watch

He's actually not in the rivals top 100...he's not in the 250 either...he dropped out of it completely after their last update...and they offered no explanation as to why...they definitely dropped the ball on that one and I imagine they will correct it sometime before NSD

Umm..that has to be some political bullcrap. He has pissed them off somehow. Rivals sucks.

He's ranked 11th in the state and 32nd guard ranked but not nationally ranked weird

Has rivals had their most recent update yet though?

 

[MockingVol]

Has rivals had their most recent update yet though?

Rivals' quality has sharply dropped off over the last few years. 247 is easily the best service around and Rivals has quickly regressed to a point where they aren't much better than Scout.

 

[benholt06]

Even before he jumped the rankings, I thought this kid was more important than Stevens or Gray.

He and Cade Mays bookended.... wow. Just wow.
