not any real HUGE news, but definitely some news...
Nick King- nothing really new here, appears the vols are probably #2 on a 4 team list right now, trailing Memphis. King will take an official visit to Knoxville sometime this fall, and most likely will be deciding in November.
Robert Hubbs- a bit of a development here, just when it seemed like he was about to trim his list, and give a bit of an update the big boys came calling. UK, Kansas & UCLA all expressed interest recently which has caused Hubbs to listen, and reopen his recruitment. There is a chance he waits now until spring to commit, if so, probably not great news. Should get a better idea on where he stands withing the next 3 weeks.
Austin Nichols- cut his list to 6, not really any surprise with any of the schools however, one notable thing could be he cut the schools he did because of the depth and talent at his position. I understand Duke is Duke, but he appears to be serious about this want to play early, and if thats the case then Duke isnt the school for him. Auburn is thought by some to have really entered the picture here and be a serious contender, i dont see it for multiple reason, but stay tuned for more on that as Barbee does come from the Cal tree.
Jonathon Williams lll- continues to really be a very quiet recruitment. tennessee is thought to be in his top 3, and most likely the leader or #2, however JW3 hasnt confirmed anything. the only real news from the mouth JW3 is that he will take all 5 of his official visits, so expect a trip to knoxville in the fall.
Jajuan Johnson- supposed to be releasing a top 5/6 any day now, will be interesting to see if he includes memphis, and/or tennessee.
Dominic Woodson- this is a guy who we really havent heard anything about for a long time. however, he released a top 10 just the other day and tennessee is on it. now what that means is anyones guess, did he just include tennesssee along with a couple other schools or are they really actively pushing for him. we should hear more soon hopefully.
Jarquez Smith- havent heard too much lately with this guy, but with him growing a bit, seems like a guy that with our post need could definitely become a high priority for CCM. has said that he will be visiting tennessee in the fall at some point.
Terrence Samuel- maybe the biggest news since the last update is with samuel. he is a highly rated PG, and would be a VERY nice pickup for tennessee. he has cut his list to 6, obvioulsy tennessee is on it, and he has said he will visit all the schools on his list, so good news there.
Quinton Stephens- a top 150 wing, who CCM has been in on for awhile, recently cutting his list to 4 and tennessee is right in the thick of things here. sounds like he will probably be taking a visit at some point to tennessee, but right now nothing confirmed.
