'25 MS QB Deuce Knight (Auburn commit)

I’m not sure anyone has ever gotten 2 of the top 3……

I don't think we'll get both

OSU got two of the top 6, prob the closest

They should go ahead and take this guy now. If his commitment scares G-Mac away I wouldn’t want him anyway. A QB that isn’t confident in his ability and doesn’t want to compete for the job is the kind that would mail it in after a Dallas Turner fumble recovery for a TD late in the fourth. In Heupel’s system give me the athletic guy that has good arm talent and is a gamer that makes things happen under pressure. Joe Burrow had average arm talent at best when he got to Ohio State, but he worked his ass off and is the 2nd best QB in the NFL right now

Joe Burrow had average arm talent at best? I think not. That’s not something that suddenly dramatically improves in your senior year in college.

I don't know if MacIntyre has that type of sway with in state recruits. Harrison Bailey didn't have any sway with his own dang teammates. I worry about missing out on both by waiting too long for a MacIntyre decision. Deuce's recruitment is heating up like a pizza oven.

Remind us of who Nico pulled to the VOLS?

IIRC, Manning was ranked #2 and Stewart was #3.

Josh Booty #1. Think Stewart may have been #5.

I don't recall saying he did, but you at least have had multiple recruits mention Nico. This was also in the context of potentially missing out on other in state players if MacIntyre committed elsewhere. Context is important.

An argument could be made that Macintyre could have some sway with instate recruits. Don’t know for sure. Bud I can see why there is pressure for Heupel to sign Macintyre.

Josh Booty #1. Think Stewart may have been #5.

If memory serves, #5 was about Stewart’s highest ranking and the service that had him that high had Manning at #3.

Which “service”? Emfinger? Lemming! Parade? There was no Rivals, ESPN or 247…even Scout.

No, he's right about that (finally).

Urban Meyer even talked about it during LSUs run that year.

And probably never will but hopefully Heupel can hear.

I’m right about more than people are willing to admit. A lot of people just don’t like some of what I say because it’s critical towards the staff that has brought us back from the dead. People don’t realize you can appreciate what a staff does while also wanting them to improve on their shortcomings

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Filthy

Filthy

Think he ends up being close to a 5 star when it’s all said and done

 

[JoeyVols32]

Kinda reminds me of Hooker's longest TD throw to Hyatt in the Bama game where he put it between the two defenders.

I wanna say SuperPrep.

Look at all those busts. Those rankings were pretty terrible.

It was SuperPrep. Found this article:

"The Volunteers, who signed two first-team USA Today All-Americas (wide receiver Marcus Nash and offensive lineman Jarvis Reado) and two of SuperPrep magazine's top five quarterbacks (Peyton Manning and Branndon Stewart), have the best recruiting class of '94."
