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

Just as many posters have said if we find our way to sec championship they elite players will come. Tough to negative recruit about winning when your sittjng in championship
 
We get Trey for sure. I expect we may see 2-3 more added and a couple commits given walking papers. Unfortunately finishing around 18-20 recruiting ranking wise isn't where we need to be to sustain long term success.

No way we finish around #18-#20 in the 2017 class rankings. Butch will pull off a top 10. With some real fortunes he will bring on a top 5.

I'm saying top 10 for sure though. We're getting Trey Smith I think for sure. I also think personally we will get Lamont Wade & Holloman.

Now, Gibbs is really a shot as well even though I would still put it at 50%-50% between UT-UGA. We also have a decent shot at Cam Akers.

That's 5 highly rated players that we could get to really bump up those class rankings. I'm going to predict in the end we get at least 3 of these guys & possibly 4. GO VOLS!

Well, he's being honest because there is going to be a few current commits being kicked to the curb. I'd say up to 6 & possibly even 7-8 in my opinion. :)

Yadda yadda 2-3 more added, yadda yadda finishing around 18-20 recruiting ranking yadda yadda.

I think it's a given that the prospects we add will be higher ranked than any current commits who are cut loose. Assuming that, I think finishing 18-20 in the rankings is overly pessimistic.

You get a like for properly spelling one of the most commonly misspelled words in English.

I gave matt a like for his awesome news.

It is great to be a Tennessee Vol.
 
Love to see us loading the hell up on talented OL and DL. That's how you become a factor year in and year out and survive the natural ups and downs with QB recruiting and other unexpected issues that pop up during a season.

Agreed. It's also how you avoid playing walk-ons at left tackle.

Thought we should have already been there by year 4, but its great to see that we have some good looking prospects waiting in the wings.

Wish I could like this a dozen times.
