I’ll take the USC OL guy lol

In a heartbeat

 

[625 Gibbs Hall]

So what is the deal with us being in his top 3? What about Jefferson? Is he a lock?

Looks like Miami, Texas, and Georgia top 3.

A lot of Nico speculation on the USC On3 board.

Their mod's reply:


AP's reply:

They love home so much, they decided 2000 miles away from it is close enough.

 

[Midas]

No everyone just wants him and thinks maybe he might not be happy being 3rd wr on OSU and the coaches recruited him hard a couple years back so maybe there’s possibility someone could get in his ear.

@BP4Prez

For some reason my quote got deleted from my reply but this for the Carnell Tate question.

Was talking about Branch, sorry.

 

[EJVOL4LIFE]

So do we feel that Jefferson is a Vol as of right now?

 

[EJVOL4LIFE]

No problem. I thought you might have been referring to him? So do u think we land Benson and Jefferson?

AP posted that TN isn't really recruiting Benson hard.

Well I sure would like to know who else we are going after, assuming we land Jefferson.

 

[IMissTheMidRangeGame]

AP gets too much hate IMO

 

[Frosty]

Still wondering who the “splash” player is…

Francis Mauigoa

 

[Weezer]

Clearly. Someone over in the Amari Jefferson thread is trying to act like there's a world of difference between Jefferson not playing at Bama in 2024 and MM's 7 catches for 90 yards at UT.

The big difference for us is that MM spent an entire year practicing in our offense where AJ did not. I don't think that makes MM "better" than AJ, but it does make him more assimilated to our offense.

 

[volinbama256]

Visits by the Branch brothers & Malik Benson to Tennessee are unlikely at this time per AP

Then we better have someone like Tate on the hook or this is a fail by the staff... What happened to "TN going all in on Branch"!?-- several media outlets

You know it doesn’t work like that

Who says they didn’t and Branch just liked the other guys’ offers more?

50% too much.

If Mauigoa comes free, you grab him and potentially a Carnell Tate from OSU.

Both Branches want to start, from word it seems like Zion wouldn’t take Farooq’s spot. That’s my official prediction for 2 big grabs

Branch is overrated and probably is looking to get over payed. Don’t really see the logic in that when there are options with just as good if not better stats at a far lower price

Not disagreeing with you at all, just saying to the other guy that just because we may not get him doesn’t mean we didn't try.

Who do you have in mind that is just as good?

 

[DaddyChad]

championship at Michigan State?

Good luck with that.

AP did say that he thought he was going into the portal, right?

Just another vague statement thrown against the wall….
