As for the quarterback position a new name surfaced on Thursday night as Mike DeBord visited and offered Texas quarterback Will McBride. McBride is currently committed to Memphis and is headed to Memphis this weekend for an official visit. McBride is an early enrollee and the Vols are hoping to somehow convince McBride to make it to campus at some point in the next 72 hours.
We've talked to McBride and he told us he will try to make it on campus.
If McBride sticks with the Tigers, Tennessee will continue to pursue Hendon Hooker. The Virginia Tech commitment could make a trip to Knoxville in January.
