aiyuk currently holds more than a dozen offers, but kansas is his lone power 5 scholarship. He didnt leave tennessee with an offer in hand, but the 6-foot-1, 185-pound prospect is confident a scholarship will come from the vols in the near future.
they just want to make sure everything checks out academic wise as a juco, he said. that i have everything flattened out and ironed out. I talked to coach pruitt. He just wants to talk with my parents and have them be more familiar with the school and be more comfortable.
aiyuk has already taken visits to kansas and arizona state, but his trip to tennessee clearly left the best impression. He spent a good bit of time with tyson helton, both just getting to know the oc and watching film on how he could be used in tennessees new-look offense.
i like him. A lot of our conversations were not about football. Hes a people person, aiyuk said. " he just said that he likes what i can do with the ball. He thinks it would be a good fit with his offense. We sat down and watched film on some of the stuff he was doing at usc with deontay burnett. They want to move me around, outside or inside.
there were four receivers who came up here on a visit, but im a juco guy, so they told me, they dont bring juco players in to not play, aiyuk said. If the offer comes? it would be hard (to turndown tennessee), he acknowledged.
