'17 PA CB Lamont Wade

When the kid is as good as Wade? Absolutely. Super star high school players can get away with a lot.

I will be surprised if he shows up. Sure star players get away with more but that doesn't make for a good atmosphere around a team.

I guess I just expect everyone to do the right thing, but do you not think that he made sure it was ok with the coaches before he purchased plane tickets..

If I were a coach and a kid was going to miss a weekday practice, I would want him to miss Thursday. For most teams, the film is studied, the changes are installed, and Thursday us a light day. As far as the rigors of air travel, the player would, in theory at least, be sitting at a desk for most of the fmday anyway. Desk vs plane seat probably doesn't affect conditioning over the, what, two hour flight? I can see him asking the coach and I can see the coach saying it wasn't a problem.
 
Did I read it correctly? Tennessee plays on Saturday--his high school game is on Friday---the day before his visit. I thought it said he and his family would leave for Tennessee after his high school game.

Never mind----wrong game :rock::rock:

Nice, ya answered your own question, now if you start talking to your self your in trouble!!
 
I just wonder, coming down on his own dime the day before his own game and has announced that he'll attend a TN game on official this fall. Wonder if he's ready to commit and that's why he's coming

You'd be surprised what a little communication can do for a good atmosphere around a team of teenagers.
 
Come on guys, don't you remember when you where 16 or 17 yrs old? How fast we recovered with just a little rest? He will go home from school sleep a couple of hrs or so then he will be good as new.

Just heard that Wade's family is planning to buy land in East Tennessee when they come down next week. Check my stats.
