I think sometimes I over do it here, but ok, sounds good to me.

i read this in a Beavis voice in my head.

It just happened. twas fortuitous.

You know you’re right. I just don’t like this last visit to Bama. Some of those MLB has been really good.
If somehow we can get back on him after the visit, and let them do their thing, then we’ll see, but for now, that visit scares me. We have the last visit with Russell, and that is the way I like those set ups. A recruit visiting last at Tennessee, always makes me feel really good.

From what Atlvol says....we did all we could do. Obviously Pruitt knows defense. We're getting some size on the DLine. We'll able to run the 3-4 and 4-2 effectively very soon.

But he KNOWS if he goes to Bama...he gets to learn from other elite talent and elite coaching.

I think we miss on him. But....Crouch and JJ Peterson are going to be right there anyway.

When did Henry get bumped down from a 5*?

Well! Maybe Atlvol will give us some good news, and yes we have big size on the dline. Crouch and Peterson is going to be tough to handle. I’m holding faith.

I really feel like we did all we could here and will continue to push as much as we can till the end... law of averages says he probably ends up at Bama with a Raptor and chargers for all his family, but I am okay with it knowing we are doing all we can. Seems like a high character kid, and that's maybe what bums me the most if we don't get him. These are the types of kids who help turn programs around by the way they carry themselves and other future recruits will want to be part of that...

 

[Orange Studs]

Didn’t take long for you to show up
I hope to god you don’t actually attend TN football games. If you do I feel sorry for the folks that sit around you.

As far as the info...the other guys information seems in line with mine. I spoke with Multiple coaches on the topic of Henry last night and yesterday afternoon and all had glowing reviews of the visit...but none of them thought it was a done deal so take that for what it was worth.

Have a glorious day!

Thank you AV for the info.

Meh, I think Pruitt is an elite defensive coach. It’s apparent that Bama D missed him this year.

 

[Orange Studs]

That seems to be across the board. He had a great time and his Family truly enjoyed their time here and they know Pruitt will get the best out of Henry, both on the field and will continue his growth as a humble young man.

Absolutely nothing more TN could do to get this kid. We laid out everything we could, where he would play, potential of early PT, great education and a family atmosphere, not just within the coaching staff but the players coming in are a extremely tight knit group.

Coach Phil also laid out that once you’re a VOL, it’s for life and anything you need down the road, help is always there. That’s always been coaches word. You need him, he’s just a phone call away, and Pruitt is the same way.

I’m PROUD that Pruitt is our coach. Just get the players and watch what happens on the hill.


Whooooo, I’m getting that feeling that them VOLS are about to wake up!!!!!!!

That gives me the giddies in my jivees

Like that dazzling display of defensive coaching we saw last monday? They got humiliated on Nat TV by Clemson. Out of position, couldn’t tackle, couldn’t cover and no pressure.

Thank you, drive through (read in my Beavis voice).

Don’t think he was a 5 star

I have seen many articles referring to him as a 5*

Sounds familiar.

Wow so one game? How many games in Sabans time at Alabama have you seen his teams play like that? You can probably count them on 2 hands.

Somehow he is a .9800 composite and #3 OLB and a 4star..... that doesn’t even make sense....

I did see an article from like July where he was a 5 star with 247. But he was also nationally ranked at 13 instead of 38 or whatever he is now.

I'm suprise Pruitt is using it before Alabama visit.

I'm suprise Pruitt is using it before Alabama visit.

Maybe trying to get him to cancel visits.

Vols feel good. Now must withstand Bama visit on Jan. 25.
