Don't believe any of this stuff is bothering Wade in his liking for us. I really thought he might quickly jump ship as our favorite but it doesn't appear so. :good!:

That's pretty cool. I see he did one for Pitt too...maybe he's not up on Penn State anymore? We'll see. Really need to finish this season strong.

I don't think it matters either way. I think Wade really likes UT. Maybe he waits & sees how both Pitt & Penn State finish up their seasons to aid in his decision but I honestly think he already knows where he's going.

I agree

247 has helped fan the flames of panic, which is unfortunate. These guys are intelligent so they know there really is nothing to panic about.

Wasn't aware he did one for Pitt too. You have a photo you can share or a link? Thanks!

I just googled his twitter and it was right below the Tennessee pic. Feeling too lazy to copy, save, attach, etc. :thud:

I'll get it looking up his twitter although this is something I rarely do with recruits. I rarely look under their twitter accounts for anything. I use the recruiting services instead but I'm not saying twitter is bad.

Edit: Saw it on his twitter. Pretty cool looking Pitt one. It was better looking than the one he did for us.

Twitter can be relatively informative as long as you don't see something and blow it out of proportion like everyone did with Kongbo's picture of "hanging up the cleats". Today Kahlil tweeted of a pic captioned "Still Smiling" and it's a screen shot of him when he announced he was coming to UT. Safe to say he's implying he's content where he is. Kyle Phillips commented on that saying "Same". DKjr tweeted saying "#onlymybrothers". You wont get a ton of straight forward answers from twitter from players/recruits but there are some pretty good hints.

Well, shoot for me not knowing. He very well could have done them though if he had the equipment. Call me loco BO91 but that will come back on you one day buddy. :wink:

Cheap Taco Sauce sounds better because I'm not into drugs buddy.

 

[bignewt]

thanks for clearing the air about your drug use!

Well, I got asked if I was a Mexican drug cartel leader so I did clear the air.

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

The Pitt pic looks generic as ****.

Ask him about his diaphragm.

Fortenberry quote from a couple weeks ago that I don't think was posted here...

If he's a top 10 prospect why aren't Bama, OSU, Michigan etc after him hard?

This is a good question. His height is a concern to a number of programs. Also, I know some wish he was faster.

I've seen him a couple of times now and I don't know that he would be an elite cover corner in the SEC, but I think he could be a really, really good nickel. He could play on the outside, too, but his height could be exposed more there.

Regardless, I think he has the elite competitiveness of a Jauan Jennings or Derek Barnett that makes up for some of those things he lacks and it's a big component into why he's ranked so high.

I go back to the 5-star challenge in the ATL. In the first session of purely 1-on-1s, he was good, not great. But, they go to 7-on-7 and he's the best DB, sometimes the best player, on the field. He just shut down his side of the field. It was awesome to watch.

Fine, play him at nickel. And if he has any JJ or DB in him, play him anywhere he wants!
