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

[sanddune50]

This only makes them stronger. They band together in tough times. They'll focus their efforts in the Master Teague thread.

Reminds me of November 9th.

 

[secking]

Taylor confirmed on twitter that he is all Vol and not decommiting

Which of these is not like the other? Is it against the NCAA to send recruits a dictionary to look up what committed actually means?

“I am still 110% committed to Tennessee," Taylor answered. "My birthday is December 3rd and I talked to my parents about it so my plan is to either stay committed to Tennessee and leave it at that and close down my recruitment or flip to Georgia or LSU, whichever one is my other option, and commit to them and leave it at that.”-Rivals

 

[DoolTool]

Wtf. Is that real?

This makes no sense

Lol, is this for real? If so, that's some crazy ****.
I'm 110% committed to UT, but I'm 105% committed to decommitting.

Yeah, unfortunately it's real. First sentence totally contradicts the second sentence thus maybe get Sab to pen him a letter? No, yeah, scratch that idea.

We come to play football not do school. I obviously do not understand math but that don't matter.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

This kid loves the drama

 

[sonofUT62]

Kids like these are why I just shrug my shoulders when Butch pulls a scholly late in the process.

 

[Ron Swanson]

If that quote is real...

 

[sonofUT62]

I just wish that one time CBJ could say "You 110% have a scholarship. My birthday is January 17, on that day you'll either have a scholly or you won't and we ll leave it at that".

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

This kid is starting to get under my skin a little bit to where I really don't care if he is apart of this class or not. Jmo.

 

[BaldBiker]

There are plenty of good receivers out there. Don't need another drama queen on this team.

 

[Jackcrevol]

....annnnd i'm out on that one

 

[Rishvol]

I feel the same way but then I realize this kid has only won like 4 games his entire high school career and doesn't know how to act when something like this happens

 

[IndianaVolunteer]

Oh the irony of VN.

 

[IndianaVolunteer]

Last month I was a troll, this month none of you care if AT is part of the class. LOL

 

[SSVol]

Perhaps there is no real drama, just an effort to keep the ATM open.

I care. Let him have his drama. Vols need talent. It would be a shame to lose him

We need talent yes, but if we learned anything the last year it should be that selfish, me first players are a absolute team killer.

And I'm not saying that I think AT is one of these, but his attitude sure seems familiar. I'm still on the fence.

This recruitment is a parody of the recruiting process

 

[Orange&White]

I think the coaching staff knows he is solid. In my opinion, his comments are simply to keep the other programs and analysts guessing. I think he enjoys the process and this is his way of getting the most out of it, but at the end of the day he is a Vol.

No kidding, never heard of a 'decommit ' date.

Ahh, the old maybe the kid has no character defense. It gets played so often. Sad thing is, it's hardly ever true.
