That's mostly what great coaches do. Hire elite coordinators to run the O and D and the HC spends his time recruiting, making speeches, shaking hands and kissing babies. Let's hope Butch has learned this is the way it works and makes some staff changes and gets the f out of their way.

Dabo learned his lesson a few years in at Clemson. Butch better or it won't end well. If he does, we'll be winning a lot of games.

Unrelated to recruiting but I love reading about acts of sportsmanship like this:

Coffee County quarterback Alontae Taylor took a knee on the first play from scrimmage against the Siegel Stars on Friday night.

The tackle was credited to Baylor Bramble, the Siegel junior who remains hospitalized at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. The 16-year-old cornerback was flown to Vanderbilt with a head injury after a Siegel football game against Warren County High School last week.

Football players, cheerleaders and referees ran to the center of the field for a prayer vigil after the first play of the game.

As a father of twins, I'd be shocked if he comes to Tennessee while his brother attends A&M. Unless his brother decommits and comes to Tennessee with him, I see almost no chance. JMO.

I have twins in the family and they went to different colleges.

I'm not saying it's impossible, just improbable. I'll also say that it's different for twins to go to different schools to pursue different academic careers, whereas in this case, the Moore twins are both pursuing football and probably have never played on a different team in their life. I believe they would find it difficult to split up, especially if they don't necessarily have to.

Need this kind of recruit. Helps lead others. Teamed up with Cade Mays.

I'm glad he reaffirmed his commitment, but this is the part of the recruiting game that really irks me. If you're "committed" then you should shut it down, and if you're still listening to other coaches and what they offer you are not "committed." Again, glad he reaffirmed but that tells me he was never fully committted in the first place. Anyways...

Maybe he was tired of the whispers that he WASN'T? This tells me even more that he WAS.

"Performance: Taylor has worked out at several different positions at camps during his high school career, including defensive back, quarterback and wide receiver. He played the latter at Saturday’s event and impressed with his physicality and ability to make tough catches. He could still play another position in college, but as explosive as he is with the ball in his hands he has a very high ceiling at wide receiver."

Butch Jones was at Coffee Co. yesterday. I don't know the exact reason why yet, but he definitely stopped in for a visit. Jim Cheney from Georgia was also there yesterday. Unnamed staff from Michigan are to be there today. FWIW.

Must be talking to somebody else because he said he wasn't talking to any other schools and was shut down. Unless he changed his mind from 3 weeks ago
