Our staff has vindicated their reputation as recruiting all-stars with this guy. The timing of getting Wright to cancel his UGA visit Wednesday in favor of coming here, before in-home with Crouch Thursday, convincing him to spend his last visit weekend in Knoxville with his buddy Darnell... Strategy game is strong. Can’t wait to see how the rest of this class unfolds.

all that said. i want crouch. dude was a freak his jr. year. there's a reason was the #1 guy in the country for a long time.

i'll take my chances with him and if he turns out like Kmac, so be it. i'd rather be doing it that way than hoping every 3* turns in to a cam sutton or josh dobbs type player.

siap, gimmie as many guys that were ranked #1 at something as i can get. i'll take my chances w/that all day.

Morning update from CU Rivals

Crouch update:

2. Technically, Charlotte (N.C.) Harding high-four star athlete Quavaris Crouch broke the news early Sunday morning of his secret Tennessee unofficial visit, as he posted pictures on his Instagram feed of his arrival on campus.

We then first shed light on what it all meant – namely that not only could it not be ignored, but that it appeared to spell bad news for the Tigers, per our immediate intel.

Rivals.com regional analyst Adam Friedman and I later concurrently flipped our FutureCasts from Clemson to Tennessee off our collaborative collection of information.

And so the avalanche began.

To add to our initial report, we can tell you that Crouch made Clemson's staff aware he might be visiting Tennessee during the weekend. So that didn’t necessarily catch the Tigers off-guard.

Clemson has been courting Crouch as an outside linebacker. We also have reason to think Tennessee has framed to Crouch that he would take a back seat there at Clemson because of its depth, whereas he could join some of the Vols’ more recognizable commitments – like Wanya Morris as foundational pieces to Tennessee’s rebuild.

The pitch has resonated.

Yes, Crouch has talked before about eliminating schools because he wanted to play for a team already competing for championships. But many prospects are impressionable – some more than others, mind you – so it’s not like a drastic change in tune ever stood to be out of either character or question.

If you’re Clemson, the foreboding sign came in the form of the door being held open for Tennessee to come in and make that pitch.

Our reports in recent weeks – maybe months – have suggested that Crouch had taken shape as a battle between Clemson and Michigan. Such sentiment didn’t simply arise from reading tea leaves.

And frankly, we had probably oversold Michigan’s standing because of the golden Crouch rule: Our longtime disclaimer that his recruitment shouldn’t be treated as done until it’s formally over.

We’ve alluded to one of the key variables in Crouch’s recruitment amounting to which voices around him carry the most weight.

Well, Tennessee tight ends coach Brian Niedermeyer appears to have pushed the right buttons there.

As Friedman reported, it’s now uncertain whether Crouch will officially sign this week. He has intended to go public with his decision during the Jan. 5 U.S. Army All-America game in San Antonio, Texas.

Thus by our own rule, we can’t totally write Crouch off – particularly in the midst of smokescreen season.

Yet we’ll come back to this regarding the trust factor:

We can confirm Crouch was to inform the winner of his recruitment this past week.

Let’s just say we know whom he didn’t tell he was coming.

Neids has been in to see Griener multiple times since last spring. Griener told me once that Neids might be one of the fastest rising big time recruiters; he seems to love him.

Nothing wrong with KMac. He just played out of position here. Making $$ now.

Don't disagree. But remember, he didn't want to go to offense when he was here. And he never "got right" while he was here after sitting out his senior year. Was out of shape and never lived up to the hype.

I think some of that stemmed from the culture at that time at TN. Player entitlement, No S+C, and all the things we later found out about.

Just to clarify will crouch sign Wednesday and not announce until Jan. 5th or will he wait to sign when he announces?

Once he signs other schools can't contact him anymore, correct? So we'll know prior to 1/5.

To keep it a secret, the team he signs with can put out misinformation that they havent contacted him either. Basically if everyone says he signed with someone else, you won't know til he decides on tv
