Thank you :) exactly what I was asking about

Yer welcome. I got tired of waiting for the op to answer so I checked. Does seem like they're offering late too but 2 of the guys Pruitt just offered got bumped to 4 stars so maybe he deserves some credit for talent evaluation on these late offers and diamonds in the rough. Or 247 just thinks he's still at Bama and gave him the Bama bump. Haha

So this Kid Pinned the UT offer tweet at the top of his Twitter. Things could be looking up and as the article Sleegro posted states. He's been bumped up to a 4* FWIW

Starting to think the Pruitt bump is legit. How many kids he offered as 2-3 stars that were bumped. Kind of crazy

Could be something to it. I think this kid could be a big get for us and open up some other recruiting opportunities out west with some other Poly kids in 19 and 20.

Some people in here have lost their damn minds about recruiting. Pruitt has been on the job 8.5 weeks. He inherited a depleted recruiting class and a poorly-coached team coming off a 4 win season. He scrambled quickly to put together a pretty damn good early signing class. Then he and his staff worked their asses off to visit as many quality recruits as possible and offered kids who wouldn't have considered UT under the previous coaching staff.

All of this in a two month period AFTER most high-level recruits had already committed or signed.

Cut 'em slack and enjoy the kids who sign. I look forward to seeing this staff coach up these young men and the players on the current roster. I think it's gonna be a fun year.

Absolutely this and "depleted recruiting class" is being kind.

Lot of folks in here I would NOT want to be stuck in a fox hole with....

We put out over 200 offers annually but for some reason never sign that many. Late offers are for backup plans because until the ink signs, you have nothing. It’s even more important this year due to the new hard cap rules.

That's a really good point, JV. To do as much as possible to both overachieve this coming season, and to stock up for the future, CJP's pulling in as many of go-get-em DLs he can sign so that he'll be able to, as did the Eagles last Sunday, keep the D-linemen hungry and fresh throughout all four quarters. You never know who all you'll get 'til you've got 'em, so some of you fellas need to relax until NSD's over and done. I personally feel the scope and depth of this coaching staff is likely the best ever at UT. GBO!

Just spoke to the California defensive end and he said he's deciding between Arizona State and Tennessee.

Lole said he has Tennessee papers and that he has talked to Pruitt alot the last 24 hours or so.

He said he will sign somewhere tomorrow and that Tennessee is a possibility. The attraction is that they are in the SEC.

Could he sign having never seen Tennessee or met Pruitt face to face? I don't know, but he didn't dismiss the ideal to me a few minutes ago.

i always wished we had more big, strong poly kids on the OL/DL. Those kids are no joke.

SEC seems to be the draw here. Like to see Pruitt close this.

Yeah, seems like I did that a week ago, but it was probably just yesterday.

If he does sign tomorrow I think it’s highly unlikely it will be with UT. He’s never met any of the coaches and has never been on campus, has transfer written all over it.

If we pull him it's big. Love his highlights and attitude from things posted here from articles. Still tough to beat az st. His HS coach was Antonio pierce and he was hired as Lb coach there

I just like physicality, banging, all that,” he said. “With all these flags, they don’t want us to play real football anymore. It started in the NFL and then colleges and now high school. Football is getting soft, that’s how I feel.”

Love this quote,probably not gonna get him but give me kids like this all day.

Hopefully his dream to play in the SEC will win out for us. Be nice to have some surprises tomorrow. Like the DB from SC. Of course I don't think he has visited UT yet but maybe these two will wait until after signing day.
