Not to be a Debbie Downer, but Keyton is rated as a 4* on Rivals. . . if you are gunning for accuracy here. Either way, . . . BOOOOMM!!! Can't wait to re-establish the Bailey to Keyton hookup in 2020/21.
Typo. Thanks.

UT Vols football: Jeremy Pruitt is recruiting Tennessee differently than Butch Jones. Will it work?

Interesting read


When it came to recruiting, former Tennessee football coach Butch Jones talked a lot about owning the state.

He was a man of his word, too, signing a combined 37 players from Tennessee during his five-year tenure.

In hindsight, however, he might have gotten a little carried away.

“I think a lot of times Tennessee (under Jones) would offer without having seen a kid face to face,” said Austin Price, who covers Tennessee football and recruiting for Rivals’ Volquest.com. “In today’s world of recruiting, so much of it is a copycat deal. ‘Oh, Virginia Tech offered, Georgia offered. Well, we’d better offer him.’ Or, ‘Hey, I hear so-and-so is about to offer, so we better get in before they do.’

Jeremy Pruitt is not going about it that way.”

It’s not as though Pruitt, who recently completed his first year as the Vols coach, is completely abandoning the Volunteer state — he signed eight in-state prospects to last year’s class. He has, however, shown a bit more restraint than his predecessor.

Not that I have any supporting evidence or anything, but I think that CJP has been watching the players that he is going after for more than just their senior season. He was a big part of recruiting at Alabama and I think that he may have a good bead on the diamonds in the rough so to speak. He is casting a wide net from the previous years of recruiting that he has done that the Volunteer state is not going to be his money maker just yet. Maybe that shifts the longer that he is at Tennessee, but for now I imagine that he has his eye on talent abroad since before he had ties to Vol football.
