Why not? Yall crazy if u think pruitt dont want this young man in orange. I dont know what Pruitt's relationship with Grimes senior is like, but I know they were teammates back in the day and that will count for something.

He’d probably take him but he’s not exactly a “top target” despite his ranking

I bet you thought Henry T wasnt a top target as well? How is grimes jr. Not a TOP (VERY TOP) target... please tell me cuz I really would like to know. It's not a matter of "do we want him" it's a matter of him choosing between his father's alma mater or a better opportunity to play early

Guys please forgive me if this isn’t allowed. I used to see these threads all the time. The guys who follow recruiting much closer than I have the time to please let me know who you think we close with.

I know our slow start wasn’t idea for a slam dunk class but I’d love to get a handle on who we sit well with!!

Thanks guys!
If you really what to know if this year has a "slam dunk class" look at the results they produce in,,,, say 2023-24. Just want know for true until then....

I’m pretty sure VQ and others have said we are split on him.

Bama doesn’t want him. Great athlete but not a great football player. Staff is split on him.

Thank you. Asked a honest question. Got an honest answer. I really was wondering ... I mean I live in middle Tennessee (Nashville) and have seen this youngster play in person and know folks that have coached him so I really was curious if someone knew something I did not.

I do disagree however, that he is not a great football player - that right there is ridiculous

Some are higher on Grimes than others, but he's a take. He's good friends with Baron, Lawrence, Mays and Hardy, and we want to lock down that core in-state group... which we can and expect to do.

Still after Jones-Bell and Capers, too, at WR.

It’s clear you’re just star gazing and never have watched him play. He’s not even the 2nd best player on his high school team

Man obviously you didn't read my subsequent post where I SPECIFICALLY stated that I HAVE seen this kid play and know coaches that have coached him

I could take it a step further and say that I have personally coached at organizations that he has played for. I could also tell you that I know the Grimes family. And you also must be outchur damn mind if you seriously think he ain't the best player on his current team

Bama doesn’t want him or he would already be there.

This will be our class

QB
Harrison Bailey (who will be a 5⭐️ on rivals)

RB
Tee Hodge
JoJuan Collins OR Zaquandre White

WR
Jalin Hyatt
Jimmy Calloway
Adonai Mitchell
A 4th WR (Swing for Arik Gilbert or Rakim Jarrett with Ricky White as a fallback)

TE
Darnell Washington OR no one

OL
Omari Thomas (as an OL)
Marcus Henderson
Cooper Mays
Javontez Spraggins
James Robinson

DL
Jay Hardy
Tyler Baron
Dominic Bailey
Octavius Oxendine

LB
BJ Ojulari
Bryson Eason
Martavius French
Another OLB (Swing for Noah Sewell or Reggie Grimes with Jimari Butler as a fallback)

DB
Keshawn Lawrence (as a corner)
Art Green
Mordecai McDaniel
Tamarion McDonald (as a safety)

ST
Will Albright

Decommitts: Darion Williamson (git shirted to Memphis)

So with 25 signees the ceiling is top 10 still (around 8-9) with a floor of 13-14 overall.

I think we will only take three wide receivers and five linebackers. But pretty spot on.

Lil bro is still in high school ... how would he "already be there"

Bama offered him a while back too ... they want him.

Tennessee should still take Grimes even with the avalanche of LB's committing. He's big enough to play on the line and fast enough to cover out in space ... and he's from Tennessee .. dont understand why he's not high on some fans wishlists when he's high on everyone's list that matters. I hope he chooses Tennessee

He's high on fan's wishlists based on star rating. AL will not take him...he was offered because there's no recourse in offering. It is possible he gets picked up at UT, but prob not likely if they get everyone they're targeting. Like JacketVol said, the staff is split.

McDonald as a safety ,I hope, he would pack a wallop in the run defense.
