Dallas thomas

[BJWeeks]

He will decide between vols and ole miss according to rockytop.com. i think he is a vol

 

[hvwarrior58]

I think he is too. He does have grade issues, though.

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

I think he is too. He does have grade issues, though.

could he be admitted for Fall semester, or are we talking prep/JUCO grade issues?

great, in a down recruiting year let's take some guys that wont even get in. now that's a sensible plan.

way to make assumptions on a kid you don't even know... chill out a little dude.

in a year where we're finding it so difficult, why take a flyer on an 2* guy that's headed to a juco?

If you can get a good player then you take him. If not you might end up with nothing.

if he doesnt make it in you end up with nothing

Actually, you end up with a better prepared for college player in a year or two.

 

[mattvols]

This year I'd take the chance of having nothing because if they do showup we have something and we dont have alot coming right now

 

[rexvol]

if he comes back to you, which is a big if since he opens up his recruitiment all over again

 

[sjt18]

UT does some things poorly... but they do a very good job of getting their own back from prep schools and JUCO. The only recent exception I can think of was a RB that still didn't qualify.

So you are not going to take the thomas commit and hold out for who?

nice point

Do you have any facts that indicate how many of our commits that go Prep and JUCO end up signing somewhere else later? Like one guy said earlier, we get our guys back from Prep and JUCO.

Hubbs thinks Tennessee leads for Thomas. I think we land him.

 

[Cartervol]

Excuse me if i don't get excited about another guy going prep. Man i'll come up there and play d-tackle for them. I'am a little on the light side though. I'am also 33 but i'll commit.

If you can gain enough to be right around 290 we'll sign you.

I'd have to eat about another person.

If you really bleed orange you'll do it.

personally i think the coaches thinkin on this is that it is more of a potential thing than anything....if he goes to prep/juco gets the grades, weights, playing experience....then ut will take him back...if hes not there in the 2 yrs...ut moves on

I think there will always be an offer for any UT recruit, regardless of if he ends up sucking in JUCO or prep.
