Not being negative, but my buddy is telling me that Georgia, Bama, etc wouldn't take his commitment as cb. They wanted him as a saftey tho. I do think Horn is the better cb.

Nobody would take Jennings as a QB besides us and Auburn and just the shot a Top qb was big in his decision. Whatever it takes to get them is all that matters. Staff won't be crying if he becomes an all sec Saftey instead of corner

The Dutchtown junior was a first-team All-State selection by the Recruit Georgia staff. He was a standout in the Rising Senior All-Star Game where the long-bodied safety made a very athletic interception down the sideline. At 6’2″, few athletes have the elite acceleration that Dean possesses from his safety spot...

May 2, 2017: CORNELIUS, N.C. – The Rivals 3 Stripe Camp presented by adidas rolled into Charlotte on Sunday and some of the best prospects from Virginia to Georgia turned out to compete. The day saw several impressive performances, but only the best of the best can make the cut for top performers.

Performance: Dean is a long and rangy defensive back who could line up anywhere in the secondary. He was strong in press coverage and he did a great job staying on the hip of some of the top wide receivers trailing them on deep routes. His length really helps him in coverage and he was smooth through the drills as well.

I am not a recruitnik to the extent most of you are, so please help a dummy understand. We've been making a nice haul the past few days, yet we are down to 6th in the 247 team recruiting rankings. The reason is.....?

So did he choose us over Bama or was he not a take for them?

The weird thing is we heard some rumors that Bama preferred Dean over Horn. Dean was also rumored to be headed to UGA but they passed. Goes to show that a lot of teams boards are different. That is if rumors can be believed.

Breakdown from Brad Shepard

"The 6’2″, 180-pound, hard-hitting safety from Dutchtown High School in Hampton, Georgia, visited Knoxville this past weekend. He went ahead and committed to the Vols on Wednesday despite nearly 75 percent of his Crystal Ball projections going to Alabama, after the Crimson Tide offered him two weeks ago.

Dean is one of the top 300 players in the country and was one of Tennessee’s top defensive back targets. Now, if the Vols can somehow land Jaycee Horn, that will be a dynamic recruiting class. Adding Horn to Tanner Ingle and Brandon Cross for the cornerback haul and pairing Dean with Chattanooga stud Brendon Harris makes this a potentially stellar DB haul for first-year secondary coach Charlton Warren.

Dean has the kind of offer list you’re looking for regardless of position. Along with the Crimson Tide, home-state Georgia, Clemson, South Carolina, Miami and Texas also had offered, along with many more.

Prior to visiting Knoxville this past weekend for Tennessee’s season-opening practice, Dean was thought to be a long shot. It looked like it was going to be a battle between Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina. But Dean apparently loved what he saw. The newest commitment surges Tennessee to the top of the SEC recruiting rankings per 247Sports and sixth nationally.

Tennessee now has a 5-star prospect and eight composite 4-stars. If you look at the offer sheets of some of the 3-stars the Vols have gotten thus far, it’s obvious that — at least on paper — this is head coach Butch Jones’ strongest class by far. With 6-7 spots remaining, it’s going to be interesting to see how the Vols use them.

They’ll almost certainly take at least one more defensive back, two receivers, an offensive lineman, and perhaps two more rush defensive ends. If they elect to just take one defensive lineman, the Vols could use that position on a best-available guy at tight end, linebacker or something else.

This class has it all. The Vols have two excellent quarterback prospects with high upside, perhaps the best defensive line haul of the Jones era, quality offensive linemen highlighted by 5-star Cade Mays and a good defensive back stable. They also have two running backs they really like.

If UT can add a couple of impact receivers, this is about the best it could hope for. Shocky Jacques-Louis and Jeshaun Jones are a pair of receivers who are strongly looking at UT, and Horn is perhaps the top remaining prospect on UT’s board. Offensive tackle Jerome Carvin is a potential pledge, too.

But tonight is about Dean, and today is about defense. Flint brought the speed as a linebacker prospect, and though Dean isn’t the fastest defensive back prospect, he’ll pack a punch when he fills out his frame. He’s a potential force, a punisher on the back end who can do a lot of different things from the back level."
