Sounds to me like there could be an issue?

With a fly name like Ricky B. one would think you wouldn't lay such a turd in starting a recruiting thread. And I haven't even gotten to the subject of your post.

 

[Volsfaninva917]

But Coach Jones is the only one who does this

It's all relative I guess...

 

[highspeed]

"nearby Illinois"?

If he lives in the Metropolis area (the closest point in IL from Knoxville, just across the Ohio River from Paducah, KY), that would be around a 5 to 5.5 hour drive from Knoxville. I have made the trip many times. If he does live in Metropolis, my real question would be, does he have an alter ego?

Ricky B, I hate to tell you this, but you are going to have to go and see Paul Bain. He is the only one allowed to put a recruit's name in the improper format in a thread title here.

 

[Dust10]

He is from Chicagoland area, so not nearby.

Last of Brady Hoke's boys to be committed. Maybe Jim didn't want any of Brady's boys on the roster. Two of Brady's boys had already de-committed and Swenson was the last one.

GO VOLS!

I saw this in the Chicago Tribune. He is from Downers Grove South high school. Western suburb of Chicago. Usually a pretty decent team. Cant fathom why Harbaugh pulled his offer.

 

[cwbytruckers]

I hear his mom wouldn't allow a sleep over

Butch : Samsonite! I was waay off

lmao. well played

 

[jbr82]

id rather have a top 100 OT rather than a top 30 OT, composite rank :crazy:

 

[illinoisvolfan1]

For a four star he has a limited offer list.

 

[CrunchingTheVolz]

For a four star he has a limited offer list.

If he were committed to UT the reason for the offer list would be that he was committed for so long, other schools didn't bother. Just an observation.

You could be right. But what heck. Throw an offer. You never know

Another article about this kid in the Chicago Tribune this morning. He was committed to Michigan for over two years. Helps explain his lack of offers. Says he is a good student and no character issues. If Arkansas has offered but no other SEC schools. He'll probably end up there or northwestern. Wonder if we are considering?

 

[illinoisvolfan1]

Correction. Only offers are Northwestern illinois and ND. Arkansas interested but no offer according to 247.

I don't think so. Kid looks to be staying close to home at Northwestern.

 

[Dust10]

I'd prob go to Notre Dame if I were him.

They don't want him. He will probably end up somewhere like Illinois. Same way Tim Hart will likely end up at Memphis

Are you saying Illinois sucks at football?:cray:
