Per Hubbs, Good news might be coming tonight from Calvin Smith. Look for him to be our next Commitment. 4* Defensive lineman out of Hialeah, Florida. Maybe we will be OK in SF. Also Palardy reassured his commitment.

Music to my ears.......:clapping:

We will be fine in SF. Gran may have been the best, but in the recruiting game, that is something that is constantly evolving and you know CEO and Kiffin made a trip or two with him to make a couple contacts themselves. Maybe the emergency room at UT can have a break now.

Has been a silent commit ever since his visit. Don't believe for a second that the timing of this is a coincidence. Coaches like to accept the silent commits publicly when things are negative like they have been this week. Turns things to a positive feeling about program. Cullen is a silent also. Unless he gets tired of UT not taking his commitment he will be a VOL.

Does anyone know who was recruiting Smith orignally? I'm just curious about who pulled this kid.

Ed Orgeron...

Dang Markieth and Calvin should be all in, Dixon and Lemonier's ears and pulling to being a VOL.

Calvin is going to be huge for the Vols in getting Lemonier. And I'm sure Ambles will be all over them. He's been recruiting everyone. He supposedly should get alot of credit for sealing the deal with JaWuan James...

will he play o-line here?

That won't be know for sure until he gets on campus, but the OL is where most people see him ending up. It seems that's where his biggest upside is...

Farrell (and the other Rivals guys) also were saying Luc was a Vol...

They told Smith that he would get a shot at DT and if that does not pan out, they are going to look at him at guard for the future. Either way, its about time we got some good news around here

Anybody think this commitment may have been held out for a rainy day and with people panicking over coaches leaving it was whipped out?

"Great pickup for Tennessee. Smith is a monster of a kid that will only get bigger in college. I think his best option will be OL in college which UT needs. I saw Hialeah play 3 times this fall and Smith outplayed highly rated teammate Corey Lemonier 2 of those games. Keep in mind this was while Smith went both ways (and rarely showed signs of fatigue) and Lemonier was strickly used on defense.

Illinois was the school I thought was the earlier leader, but after their rough season I wondered if they would still be able to nab the Hialeah duo. A couple weeks ago it came out former Hialeah star Corey Luiget was unhappy at UI, taking another shot at the Illini's chances for the Hialeah duo."

When asked if Lemonier would follow Smith to UT, Luke said:

"I think he does."
