D'Andre Payne Commits!!

I'm a star gazer, so I'm happy to get as many 4*s as we can get. But not to rain on anyone's parade, this kid is a 5 foot 9 corner -- can he defend 6 foot 3 WRs in the SEC? I'm assuming he's fast as heck, but is he bringing a ladder with him? What am I missing here? (And yes, I know Butch is a better judge of talent & need than me).

Yes. Speed, speed, speed.

Kinda small (5'9") so he must be a heckuva athlete to garner that 4th star. Hope he grows 3 or 4 inches in the next year or two. Just saw where 247 has him at 5'9.5" so the growing has already begun! ;-) Just saw his 40 at 4.4. This video shows that he also likes to lay the wood:

Man, it's hard to believe that we're at the beginning of April!

Honey badger with better cover skills?

It's Jalen Tabor. I just found it on Rivals. He's a 4 star too. Ranked the 27th prospect on Rivals.

Yes. One of his running mates. 4 or 5 star DB depending on whether youre on 247 or Rivals. Payne said he'd gonna be all over him to get him here.

5'10~5'11 is the ideal size for a corner. he's 5'9 and half. he's only 17 and he'll grow an inch probably.

UT gets A hot prospect and the first thing U think about is James Franklin! ANCHOR DOWN

Not nearly the first thing. First thing was how a top prospect came to be apart of something special at UT. Next was how he'll help the team win. Next was how many of his teammates and other top recruits he'll help bring to UT. About 8 or 9 thoughts later was how Payne choosing UT over Pansybilt would help ruin Snakehead's day, especially the day after he came to Nashville and toured Pansy's "facilities". Little something called insult to injury.

Funny how kids grow.Kid in the 7th grade shoots to 6' .. then gets only an inch or so more. The kid at 5'6 he "towered" over dosen't start growing til junior in high school, the shoots up to 6'-3. You never know. But at this age, they all pretty much continue to get an inch or so. He'll be FINE! Oh Yes, Oh Yes! Just FINE

This guy is such an troll....he claims to be a UT fan and a Vandy fan.


He just enjoys to mess with people.

He isn't just a troll. He is James Franklin trolling the board because he's jealous the best job he could get was at Candyland.
