Who said the kid was offended? I said SOME kids. Has nothing to do with any kids by name at all. Woodi is competitive so he may camp who knows.

Yeah i think a lot of jumping to conclusions is happening here in thread. He could have said maybe just because he wasn't sure about travel. I'd assume if Otey and Knox come woodi would too.

Considering as much stuff we send Woodi I'd say we like him a lot camp or no camp. They are more worried about seeing the other 2 hands on in camp before saying yes or no

And do we even know if Washington was asked to camp? I think everything has been assumed that he was asked and declined. Might be a whole lot of bold statements in here over nothing.

"It's been great this spring," Washington said. "I just got the 5-star and Opening invite. I just go out and compete and do know what I know how to do. That's what I can control and I'm glad to see my work paying off."

"It's how recruiting has turned lately," Oakland head coach Kevin Creasy said. "Once his tape is out there, it's hard to not find a talent. We have had guys from all the major conferences and from the west coast coming in to see him. "Tennessee was the first to offer him last fall. I give a lot of credit to Walt Wells, who was the first to really notice him and then he shuts down some guys early last year and it took off. He has been patient and then went out and produced when it was his time."

"I've never seen a coach be that blunt," Washington said, recapping his film session with Pruitt. "It just pushes me to work harder. He's a straight up person and he's not going to kiss your butt. He's going to tell you everything and not just what you want to hear. "He said I just need to be more physical. I have good ball skills, but just work hard to be more physical."

Tennessee needs help at corner in the worst of ways. It's why they have targeted so many in the 2019 class. Washington hears the pitch and he's fully-aware that a player of his skill-set is needed in Knoxville. That's the daily pitch from defensive backs coach Terry Fair. "He texts me every day and we have a great relationship," Washington said. "He tells me they need me and how he wants me to come and visit. It's good to build those type of relationships."

Oklahoma, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Ohio State stand out to Washington. He's hoping to get back on campus for each school in the near future. If you pay attention to Twitter, you will notice that the Razorbacks and their fans continually throw love his way with edits and tweets. He really appreciates those, but tries to keep it all in perspective. "All the edits are cool, but I have to look at where I fit in and what school needs me," Washington said.

A certain poster is coming on here stirring speculation up for no reason in threads. Just digging with no shovel at all.

Those ARK edits are particularly egregious crap.

Woodi actually had a good year without an edit. He’s the real deal at CB.

If he doesn’t feel like camping cool. If he does then cool. Kid is going to school for free and will be a good player at the next level.

People are waaay off on this.

Pruitt knows DBs. He wouldn't bother critiquing Woodi if he didn't think he could help.

He knows he's competitive. He wants to see him compete against other guys in a Pruitt type setting. Whatever that entails

Woodi is doing the right thing by camping at these events, because he's good and wants EVERYONE to see it.not just UT.

With that said. UT was the FIRST to offer. And Pruitt has given him the most honest feedback of any coach. I think Pruitt is playing this perfectly.

And Vol fans need to chill. Camp or not...if commits to us...we accept.

Rivals did one of those ask the prospects where they peer is going. Nobody picked TN for Woodi. Ohio st, Oklahoma, Arky and FSU were the ones picked. Smh

I find it very interesting the hs coach mentions Walt wells in the interview.
Would love to know what else he said.

I hope someone is in his ear and points out that JP is already coaching him up...I'm guessing the other schools are blowing typical recruitment smoke up his rear end.

I wonder if Pruitt ever considered bringing Wells in on the support staff. The guy was a heck of a recruiter in mid/west Tennessee.

I doubt it. Anything connected to Jones is tainted

I agree with the sentiment of that statement, but I also think that's why Wells got the job in the first place. If you'll remember Butch was not being well received out there when they brought Wells in. All the high school coaches loved the hire, and it improved relations. The only Jone's taint on Wells would be throwing him into the fire coaching the offensive line. I don't recall seeing a drastic improvement in oline play last year.
