Someone posted a pic on twitter of him playing as Michigan on the NCAA video game and claimed it was during his OV here. I just can't see him going up North and playing in that cold weather all of the time. Just my opinion...

Crouch’s former coach and current mentor, Sam Greiner, told GoVols247 on Sunday that the 6-foot-2.5, 230-pound Crouch “got all those butterflies again” this weekend during an official visit that solidified Tennessee’s standing as one of “the final three schools” he’s considering, along with Clemson and Michigan. And with Crouch still scheduled to take an official visit to Clemson next weekend, Greiner said the Vols again have “a legitimate shot” at landing him.

“We talked about it, and I kept reminding him that the first time he went there earlier, all he did was rave about Tennessee,” Greiner said of Crouch. “There’s something special about that, and I said, ‘Don’t lose sight to what your first feeling was, Quavaris.’ And he says, ‘Yeah, you’re right.’ I said, ‘You definitely need to go check out a visit and go there.’ "And he went there this weekend and he got all those butterflies again, like he got that one time when he went before.”

“I think it gives them a legitimate shot — really do,” said Greiner, the former head coach at Harding who left for Hickory Ridge High School in nearby Harrisburg, N.C., earlier this year. “They provide a lot of things from a standpoint of a network outside of football when you’re done playing, the growth. And the city itself right there in Tennessee is different than everywhere else.

“You can see them growing and building to what they want to be, and I think that was the biggest thing he got out of it — seeing it live, talking to the people,” Greiner said. “The proof’s in the pudding. … And then talking to some of the players, hanging out with them, I think he really, really is like, ‘You know what? I really think they’re onto something over here.’”

“Niedermeyer is probably the new, up-and-coming greatest recruiter, greatest personable guy there is in the recruiting world. Not many people know how great he is yet. He is phenomenal. I haven’t had a guy like that since (Gunter) Brewer left at North Carolina,” Greiner said, referring to the former Tar Heels assistant coach who’s now the wide receivers coach for the NFL’s Philadelphia Eagles.

Crouch met with running backs coach Chris Weinke, offensive coordinator Tyson Helton, offensive line coach Will Friend, Niedermeyer, outside linebackers coach Chris Rumph and defensive coordinator Kevin Sherrer, among others, and Greiner said the Vols told him they “don’t know exactly” where he might play “until he’s there.” “They really tell him how, if he was his own son, he would tell him probably the best benefit for him long-term is to play inside linebacker. He thinks that he grades out (in terms of) measurables very well for that instinctively,” Greiner said, referring to Pruitt. “But playing running back is definitely not off the table. But it’s hard to say. He’s just honest with him about that.

Really good article by Callahan. Sounds like Greiner, his mentor and former coach, is a big fan of UT.

Don’t get it twisted. I have zero connections. I’m just a middle aged man who loves the Vols and pays a few subscription fees.

All such posts are simply opinions.

Atlanta Vol, marker, and bobbygvfl are in the know types.

If he's feeling us again like he was when I talked to him face-to-face early in September then we are in great shape. Recruiting is fluid and it's easy to backtrack but I never wavered just have not posted about it for not wanting to jinx us. If he doesn't sign here I'm going down with the ship and still eating crow.
