More visitors from Simonton...

Couple more confirmed visitors.

DT Brant Lawless will be in town, as will OT target Tanner Antonutti and DE Caleb Johnson.

...

Jacob Lacey was a guy who hadn't confirmed plans earlier in the week. Tennessee definitely a factor here.

...

On top of Jacob Lacey news earlier today, couple more notable underclassmen set to attend OCD include 2019 WR Shamar Nash, 2019 DE Bill Norton, Jordan Davis's Southwind 2019 DL teammate Kristian Williams and 2020 OT Jake Wray.

Tennessee definitely working hard to mine Memphis over the next few years.

What all happens at orange carpet day? What do the recruits actually do?
Click to expand...

pretty sure they change it up each year. but usually its kind of an anything and everything event. all hands on deck, everything is spruced up and everyone is selling UT. its not a camp and i think usually its just hanging out and getting to know each other. I am sure there are some Q/As and tours and recruiting videos to watch. but mostly they are hanging out with coaches, players, recruits, snow bunnies and living it up in Ktown.

Updated VQ list...

This year’s OCD should be a bit different. The Vols will welcome more than 80 kids to campus, including 30+ 4-star prospects and numerous blue-chippers not yet ranked in the 2019 and 2020 classes. Nearly all of Tennessee’s 2018 commits will be in town, an important note since the Vols’ staff will have to rely in some real peer-recruiting this weekend with the volume of prospects on Rocky Top. It’s an interesting position for Tennessee this year. How many top prospects are too many to host at one time?

We’ll find out.

Here’s who we expect to be on campus Saturday.

Talk about LOADED, right?

Tennessee is hosting a bevy of DL talent, as well as its top targets at OL, LB, CB and RB. The underclassmen groups are star-studded, too, as Tennessee continues to make a strong push toward reasserting itself in Memphis.

A couple names missing from the list are 2019 defensive end Joseph Anderson and 2019 wideout Trey Knox. As previously reported on the GQ, Knox won’t be in town this weekend but he’ll bring his family to Knoxville on Wednesday for a big 1-on-1 visit with UT’s staff. Anderson, as well as 2019 DE Ani Izuchukwu, will be at Tennessee on Friday with some other NPA guys before going to Alabama on Saturday.

I thought Jibunor was a Lb?

He will play LB in college, imo. Xavier Peters seems more like a potential DE to me, rather than Jibunor. Jibunor looks faster than Peters to me, and Peters is bigger than Jibunor. But, I'm going on highlight videos, only. Plus, Jibunor also plays WR in high school, so that is even more proof, that he is a LB, to me

A LOT of big-time talent on campus this weekend! I'm saying 3 2018 commitments, 2 2019 commitments, and 1 2020 commitment!
