'18 TN OL Jerome Carvin (UT signee)

[5FingerVolPunch]

Just looked up the rule and I was correct.

A HS can't be hired as support staff but CAN be hired as one of the 10 on field coaches.

Thanks. What was his HS coach hired as?

 

[chaseasl]

That's why he's saying it's not possible. Apparently there is a new 2 year NCAA rule that will not allow him to be signed at Memphis because his HS coach took a job there.

That only applies if it is an off the field coaching job, if the coach is hired as a regular , on the field assistant then the school can recruit immediately.

Full time on field was said Somewhere here

Gotcha. So Carvin to Memphis is definitely a possibility then.

From what is said here yes but Surely that isn't what happens though

I hope not. Hopefully he figures out a way to make it to Knoxville this weekend and they wrap him up.

Norvell with the snake move can't blame him though

Wonder if they’ve got WiFi in there. Or if they’re still getting their information via pigeon.

Neither, still working on an inaugural alphabet.

If that's a snake move you may want to look into how we got Trey Smith.

She was hired on her own merits. Jive turkey

per new NCAA rules you can't have a scholarship player come to a school for 2 years after a coach from said school becomes a coach at that university

 

[swchandler1988]

Let’s have some faith in Jpru. We good. Everyone’s panicking, and I’m right there with you. But we have a good staff in place, and an excellent recruiting staff. Let’s just take a breath.

You never know...it's a real gamble.

Memphis might have Eze and Carvin on its line for the next 3-4 years. Not too shabby.

 

[RikidyBones]

😂😂

The only 😂😂 here is you thinking you get legit info. You have more Ls than Tennessee's football program. 👍

 

[VolFreakJosh]

We shouldn’t even attempt to recruit the Memphis area.

 

[TNHopeful505]

We shouldn’t even attempt to recruit the Memphis area.

Heck, we need the Memphis area. We need to recruit it harder. More talent comes out of Memphis than it does East Tennessee. If we can start owning Memphis, then we can get some top notch players from our state.

But they won’t have Riley Ferguson so it won’t matter.

Lot of talent coming out of Memphis in the next few cycles. We need to get in there.

I think Austin Thomas has ties there in addition to the mid state.

Problem with Memphis is that there are 8 other SEC schools that are as close to it as Knoxville, with 5 of them being significantly closer. Additionally, and perhaps because of all this competition, getting high school athletes out of their schools has become a shady business on par with AAU recruiting. For one reason or another, it has rarely worked out well for Tennessee to get players from Memphis, going back decades.

Pretty steep price for a 4 star OL.

Gundy’s a done deal.

Or how Urban landed Vonn Bell.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Maybe we can talk butchna into giving him a ride. I'm pretty sure he gave Torrance Gibson a ride to town a few years ago.
