Probably was L lock but is early. If you get them on our campus, things can change. It can be a game changer.

Max is a elite talent and he is very intrigued by UT he will have plenty of choices in the end as he has strted to rack up offers from everywhere. Nothing to worry about here as he enjoyed Jr day and will definitely be bk in Knoxville. Once again Wells is a star off the field and will definitely help build relationships and recruit better than Mahoney.

“What separates some schools is how they keep in touch with me,” Iyama said. “People recruiting me the hardest are Tennessee, Memphis and South Carolina. That's what separates them. They see more interested than other schools. “They like my fight, my motor, and my attitude when I'm on the field. They also say they like my technique.”

Saturday, Iyama was in Knoxville for junior day and left impressed with the Vols. “I just want to have a place that will push me to be the best athlete on and off the field that I can be. I just want to feel at home. Tennessee is one of those places where I could feel that. They did a good job with me at the junior day.”

Iyama is being recruiting by Vol offensive line coach Walt Wells and while the process is just really getting headed up for Iyama it's already been an eye opener. “What I have learned about it is that there is more to it than I thought there was in the beginning,” the soft spoken Iyama said. “I have learned how to communicate with the coaches and things like that.

“As soon as I get an offer I start looking hard at the program to see what they offer and what they can do to help me. I have been doing that since the beginning weighing out the pro's and cons of each school”

Iyama said at this point everyone is recruiting him as a tackle, but where ever he's asked to play, he will line up. “Just tackle right now. I know when I get to college they are going to put me at the position where I can be the best player I can be. If it's guard than so be it. I'm going to go out and do what I can to help the team win.” Up next for Iyama is either a trip to Georgia or Alabama this weekend and then March 4th it's Louisville as well as March visit to South Carolina.

Four-star offensive tackle Maxwell Iyama of Siegel High School in Murfreesboro, Tenn., was back at Tennessee on Saturday for the fourth time in less than five months, and the Vols undoubtedly have caught his attention. Sources said Tennessee is the favorite to land him, and while he’s currently in no hurry to decide on a college, the Vols ultimately could convince him to make his choice a bit sooner than expected. It’s worth noting, though, that the list of teams pursuing him still is likely to grow within the next few months.

Max had a very good work out with former Vol Jams Stone and also works frequently with Tiny Richardson @ NPA as well as former Hendersonville and Vandy standout OL Joe Townsend. Btw sorry for the poor quality and dark picture daylight esxaped us very fast Sunday as many of us and the kids were coming back off the road.

Had a pretty good day at our OL/DL camp. Worked out at both OT spots. Had some really good reps against Honeysucker who was the man of the hour today on the DL side of the ball.

Does Honeysucker have a thread? He is the kid I've been trying to think of his name the last few weeks to see where we stand with him. He stood out to me in the playoffs
