If your implying DT, we aren’t thin there at the moment and by next year I doubt we will be either. We are doing very well over all. And I have total confidence that our D line coach is more than on top of that situation. Not every DE will stay there, expect to see a few slide inside over time. Don’t discount some money of them 3 star DT to start stepping up next year, that’s what happens with good coaching and good evaluations. We are far from done with recruiting. GBO

Key words, "at the moment". DT is absolutely a need, especially because of the style we play. You have to have a good rotation to keep fresh legs in the game.

As for CRG, find where I've trashed him. You won't. I've been baffled that DTs haven't jumped on board, but I've not slighted Garner in the least. Not everyone being realistic about needs is trashing the coaches, and those that are, are just dumb. But I'm not them. DT IS a need, and the fact the coaches continue to pursue DTs proves my point.

I've pointed out several times that the early signing period is still 4 months away. Lots of time for new names and flips. Still doesn't change what our needs currently are. Not sure what good denying we need DTs accomplishes.

We need the Cooley High gif for this one!

I am now turning my attention to Okoye. If we can land him RG can reach out to some of the DT guys recently committed to see if they would like to play along side these guys instead of their current destination. If not it would have to be attractive to some mobile talent through the portal. Also like to have that LB that is still on the board to play right behind them.

WAAAAYYYYY too early to hit the panic button at any position. Also way too early to get cocky ALL ours come on in.

I’m late but……

 

[VFL1993]

The best part of him trolling UF is that we won’t have to worry about them being a potential flip destination later on.

Good to see you @MockingVol!

 

[SugarCC]

#6 class in the country...


I'm concerned.

 

[TNHopeful505]

Now, bring me Okoye, Saleapaga, Schrunke, Seaton, Wingo, Mikell and Cole, and I'll have a Merry Christmas.

247 is much better than On3 with their ratings. On3 has some very suspect ratings

How bout them Vols brother! Great pickup. Am I right?

 

[KPT_VFL]

BOOM!

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

It's really gonna be something when this staff learns how to recruit.

 

[OrangeTsar]

Yea, usually it takes them 30 mins to announce it with all the other BS, but Ross got straight to it. Nice to see. I hate watching 30-45 mins of BS till they announce. Props to him!

Exactly the approach we want him to take going after the QB. Just get er done

 

[volsincebirth]

Looking at Ross's film. He has such good closing speed. This is a difference maker.
