Does anyone else remember SGM and others saying that recruits don't give a damn what our opinion of them is? This goes to show that yes recruits do check out the site and sometimes we can make a good impression.
I think he was talking about Facebook posts and stuff. But I think they do look on these sites. It may not make or break their decision, but it can't hurt if we have over 700 or so posts about that player. It says a lot about our fanbase- both good and bad.
No, this was awhile back. We had a discussion about whether recruits actually care about what is posted on here about them. Some of us said that it could make a difference. Others said they don't check and wouldn't give a damn either way.
Just so you guys will know...
Just got off the phone with Mack's dad at 10:35am. He's down at Carson-Newman where THS is scrimmaging Knox West as I'm typing.
Mike called me and said that he wanted me to tell everybody here on VolNation before their 3:00pm announcement that "Mack is excited, honored and humbled at this opportunity with the Volunteers." That... "VolNation had quite a bit to do with him officially committing to the University of Tennessee and that he only looked on the site about three days ago and was overwhelmed at the attention that VolNation was giving him". Mike said he would be... "thrilled if Mack goes down and just lights it up but he said he expects Mack to be there for five years".
I think all of you know how it was looking already with the media stuff but I thought it was pretty good of Mike to call and ask that I post the above statments to the whole of "VolNation".
Thanks steelervol. That is great. I remember being in that argument with a few guys about how we should watch what we say on here about recruits because they probably do get on here.
