'19 NC RB Quavaris Crouch (Tennessee signee)

These morons actually believe they had a chance. A just barely above average program.
This is a huge recruiting win if we hang on but I don't think we are in a position to get all hoyty toyty and start looking down our nose at people when we have been boatraced by Vanderbilt 3 years running.

I don't understand why everyone is freaking out over that post from Shurburtt. I didn't take it as him bashing UT or anything. I took it as him bashing Rivals (rightfully so) and bashing people in Crouch's camp for giving him what he viewed as "bad advice." It wasn't written well, no. But I didn't take it as him bashing UT.
 
So according to Shurburtt, QC won't be "elite, elite" unless he plays RB, and if he plays LB he only has the "potential to be All-SEC and maybe a high NFL draft pick at that position"? Did I read that right?

And given what we are learning about CTE and the extremely short shelf-life of RB's, Shurburtt is going to bash the kid for not wanting to play that position long term?

That is just some major rationalizations to make yourself feel better when something doesn't go your way.

Bingo. And he’s right - because even Hubbs has hinted that many programs don’t see Crouch as a take due his injury history and a little bit due to the people surrounding him and his attitude.

It wouldn’t stop me, however. I take him in a heartbeat and try to get him a redshirt year. You don’t pass on that much raw talent.

How is it not bashing UT to say that a player is getting bad advice when he’s being encouraged to go play for the Vols? That is absolutely bashing UT

If healthy he’s the best player in the country. 6’4, 240 pounds, with 4.5 speed. He’ll be a monster coming off the edge
 
Maybe I misunderstood. It sounded like he was saying it’s bad advice to go to UT. He even said he’d be a better player if he went to Clemson. Why?
Clemson is recruiting him to play RB....Crouch does not want to play RB because "He doesn't want to take the hits"...TN is recruiting him solely for defense.

well, if that's how we all felt abour Crouch, wonder why we weren't hearing about it 4, 5, 6 months ago?

no, this is a blow softening piece of click bait, something that usce fans can all rally around and actually feel good about not having a chance with the kid.
