'19 FL OL EJ Ndoma-Ogar

[Coach Punk]

“One thing to keep an eye on over the next 10 days is when EJ Ndome Ogar opts to sign. If the Oklahoma OL commit decides to delay a decision until February then there’s real confidence Tennessee could pull off a flip for the All-American guard. ”

EJ already officially visited Knoxville, right? I wonder how delaying his signing until Feb is supposed to significantly help our chances? Thanks anyone for throwing me an answer.

I realize he's currently an OU commit.

It just doesn’t shut the door on us in Dec.

Gives Pruitt more time to build a relationship, and more time for Pruitt to get in his head and make him think. Especially if the prospect isn’t a favorite for us.

It also allows Lincoln Riley to go to the NFL and EJ to have second thoughts. But that has to happen after Jan 1 and the bowl games so this gives us a chance.

The Vols also checked in on several of their biggest remaining targets on the board Monday. Tennessee has remain diligent in its pursuit of Oklahoma OL commit EJ Ndoma-Ogar. Will Friend went to the see the Texas native today. It’s notable that Pruitt has not visited with Ndoma-Ogar yet, a possible indication that the Oklahoma commit will not sign early and Tennessee remains deeply in the mix.

Nothing other than I remember someone saying that we have a really good shot with this kid if we get DW. Hope DW signs Wednesday so we can ramp this one up.

Wouldn't that put us at 7 OL commits? We need the help but that seems like a log jam in the making...

That sounds like depth to me..

It will be interesting to see if Oklahoma EJ Ndome Ogar signs this month. If he doesn’t, the Tennessee may be a legitimate opportunity. Wanya Morris told Volquest last month that if Tennessee could land Wright, Ndome Ogar would be in a good spot. Now people close to the Texas native tell us that some are pushing him to play the long game and visit Tennessee again

-Price

Bump to this piece from Price. All signs point to us getting Wright, and Wanya seemed to indicate getting Wright would mean getting EJ.

I believe there was communication between the staff and his family that he may return on an unofficial in January if he doesn't sign this week.

If they were QBs, sure, but 5 play at a time and very few play all game. They’ll all definitely get their snaps considering the current state of the line.

yep. the OV went well, and they wanted to get back out with the familiy in January.

if he doesn't sign wed, then we'll see what hapens.

Coach Friend really wants this kid. Talks to him almost daily. They have a great relationship.

Only if 4 + 1 = 7

Even if Wright gets on board as expected, adding this kid would only put us 6. Having watched our O-line play all year, I wish we could add 2-3 jucos/transfers to go along with the 4-6 high school guys.

Recruiting that great O-line would put Tennessee in the winners circle. It is the single most important thing Coach can do, imo.

VN wants 3 WRs, 7 Oline, 2 Rbs, 2 TEs, 1 QB, 4/6 dbs, 3/4 LBs, 6/8DL. some of the uncertainty is based on how you count some of our commits and targets.

that's 28 on the low end and 33 on the high end.

and people hated Butch for his large classes.

But only if they're all 4 and 5 *s of course

 

[VFL92]

Apparently he's shut it down and signing tomorrow. He confirmed this per twitter. Bummer, but still a VERY solid OL class.
