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

People act like this is a new thing. Highly ranked prospects take visits. There are exeptions, but most do. What I find funny is that a lot of the people worrying in situations like this are the same ones who say we have no chance when someone like Jordan Davis actually does visit here. Yet they claim to be Vol fans. The inferiority complex is getting pretty damn old.

There is talk of him planning a visit to UGa. I don't see how you can be solid or recruiting for Tennessee when you visiting other schools. I don't see Cade visiting Bama, UGa, or any of our rivals. #COMEONMAN

This kid loves attention...he has from the start and he will until the end...it should be expected..

As someone said, there's no need to worry until he actually starts visiting places...then, IMHO, all bets are off...I don't care what a kid says, if he's taking visits then anything can happen

Nothing to worry about


Who wouldn't want to go visit new places and party with different schools co eds while you can?

Summer campuses and Fall campuses are totally different. The ladies are no where near what you'll see in the Fall. I can't roll with ya on that GFW.
 
Having lived in Athens during the summer, I can definitively say that the "scenery" is nowhere near as good as a fully stocked November (yoga pants) or April (sundresses).

I visit there often to see my brother, who is getting his PHD, and I agree with this assessment.
 
My wife works on Vanderbilt campus and I went and had lunch with her the other day and there were still beautiful girls all over. Less of them for sure but still a lot.

This fine when you're not committed. But, once you commit, it's a different story. Lawerence, Lingard, Mays, Thomas are all in the top of this years class. None of those guys are out looking at other schools. Why? Because they're committed.

Alonte doesn't act like he's committed, thus my post earlier. When you're committed, you work to get others to join you. It's a difficult sell when you're visiting yourself. I understand he said he's 100% committed, but visiting leaves the door unlocked. Would you want your Fiance visiting (going out) with other guys before your wedding?

Good point.

I met Alontae yesterday in tullahoma. Super nice guy with a awesome attitude and very respectful. I was talking to him about Tennessee and some current committs, players, and also kids there trying to recruit to commit. Said that he without a doubt will be playing for us, and that he bled orange through and through.

Don't know what article you're speaking of on Alonte, but he's solid to UT.



UGA Rivals article...might visit, could flip in December if he visits, etc...


I heard Alontae was signing with Tennessee in December, playing in UAA game and then enrolling early. Don't see that changing, either.
