'19 GA CB Warren Burrell (Tennessee signee)

Another 3-star huh? I'm all for trusting your own evaluations but this will be our 10th 3-star.

Some of them are questionable. But VQ says that Burrell is number 1 on Pruitt’s board for corners. He let other 4 stars walk and pursued Burrell. This is who he wants

I’m in a similar boat as you however realize we went 4-8 last year and the last time we were good the kids deciding this year were in diapers. All they’ve known is us being a doormat. If we play well next year I think our recruiting will spike. Also we really aren’t recruiting all that bad at the moment.

Then why does 247 have Burrell as 3*? If they think he is a "baller", then they should put their money where their mouth is and give him the higher rating he deserves.

Didn't one of them say the other day that they don't want to change one recruit's star ranking because it will mess up the position rankings? Ridiculous these sites even exist much less garner the credence they get.

Buncha eggheads who’s wishy washy rating and projections are supposed to be more credible than lifelong coaches.

Totally agreed. It would really help shut up the naysaying whiners on here if they didn't exist.

Burrell is the guy Pruitt has wanted all along, to heck with the service rankings.

I was at the Opening in Atlanta and Burrell was more impressive than multiple other Vol defensive back prospects that were present. He was the only guy who went head to to head consistently with the big name receivers, Keyton, Haselwood and Pickens and didn’t get embarrassed. Also was in Nashville and outside of Woodi Washington didn’t see another corner that was as impressive as him on the field.

I'm not opposed to taking Burrell. Make no mistake about that. I'm just saying this class as a whole is accumulating a lot of 3-star players which is a little surprising to me. It wasn't long ago that I was making fun of Mullen for this.

I agree and Harrison and Clemons and some guys like that are curious takes at this point. But Burrell isn’t one of those guys.

I don't agree, on the surface taking Harrison was a head scratcher, till you actually consider the facts about the kid, and not just a service ranking that takes none of that into account
