'18 TN QB/WR Alontae Taylor (UT commit 6/18/16)

I can't dig up any info on anyone else they could be recruiting at Coffee Co. Alontae seems solid as a Vol from what I hear though, so I'm not sure. '17 commit K'Rojhn Calbert is just about a 20 minute ride up the road, so maybe Butch was just checking in and trying get a better grip on the in state talent. The coach at Coffee Co. is a former Clemson grad assistant so hopefully Butch leaves a good impression. Not that coach Ryan would play favorites by any means, but it's peace of mind knowing Alontae was offered by Clemson and still chose Tennessee. It's good to see good high school coaches not trying to funnel talent to their Alma Mater, especially a high profile school like Clemson.

Apparently he's visiting schools again this weekend according to 247. Thought he had shut it down?
 
He's with his 7-on-7 team. It's not as if he's visiting a school on his own. He's one of probably 15-20 kids on the team, so the only way for him to avoid making the visits would be to basically sit in the car – or on the bus or whatever – while everyone else visits the schools.

Rivals Dozen: adidas East Coast Invitational

WINDERMERE, Fla. -- Hundreds of college-bound prospects showed on in central Florida for Saturday’s adidas East Coast Invitational on Saturday afternoon. There were dozens of teams in the event and the action was fast, making it impossible to catch every snap of every game. Below are 12 of the top individual performances we observed during the tournament.

Recruiting Wrap: Taylor is committed to Tennessee. He recently picked up offers from Louisville, UCF and Georgia.

Performance: Taylor plays quarterback for his high school team but his future is likely at wide receiver and he showed why on Saturday. The electric playmaker became a favorite target of Bailey and once the two got into a groove it was fun to watch. Offensive weapons like Taylor don't come along very often so the Vols were smart in making him an early priority.

Nice click bait troll job by 247 to make it sound like he's looking around.

Don't really think its click bait as Alontae has blown up and offers are coming in daily. Coaches are calling and offering like crazy. He will be with the TN Select team and will be on several visits throughout the summer, but they're not personal visits at all. He's very solid at this point and wants to be close to home in-state.

Kid is blowing up with more offers. Glad he is committed to us

Very solid to us as well. I live in the county beside him and have seen him play several times. Kid is a baller on a bad team. He is the true definition of making something out of nothing. Very proud of his accomplishments so far.

I'll probably get some feathers ruffled by saying this, but he's on a worse team than M. Gray and makes the best of the situation every week. Shows up on film and when you watch in person. Play makers find a way to make it happen.
