Recruiting Predictions

[lacrossepro70]

With less than a month to signing day, it's crunch time. Who do we land, and how many do we sign?

 

[ivtec_jrod]

hate to be pestimistic but this year's class looks to be a bust big time but maybe we will scavenge a few highly rated players at the end.

I have a prediction somewhere in the forum.

oops didn't see it. You really think we get Alexander?

 

[hvwarrior58]

Right now, I don't know. I just don't see any team falling over themselves trying to get him. I think we may push harder, though, since Demps chose UF.

 

[lacrossepro70]

Chances we get one big hitter?

 

[hvwarrior58]

I predicted a few pretty good linemen. Curtis could be a possibility. No top 50 recruits, imo.

 

[rexvol]

no top 50? why is it that at UT it's either feast or famine and never anything in between?

 

[hohenfelsvol]

We go through this process every year. Someone will shake out by signing day. :crossfingers:

 

[Volsguy12]

HV, what do you think about Marcus Davis?? He seems to have excellent size and decent speed..do we have a good chance?

 

[hvwarrior58]

Not really sure. I guess we'll see after this weekend.

 

[rexvol]

this is a pivotal weekend. Im really looking for the new coaches to perform

 

[Cartervol]

We better get started pretty soon we are running out of time and only have eleven commitments. This year looks like another down year. Whats that now two out of four years recruiting wise. That won't cut it if were to stay competitive.

 

[Volsguy12]

wow, haven't heard this same old sad story a thousand times.

 

[hvwarrior58]

We don't have a ton of commitments, but this isn't going to be a monster sized class, either way. We also have Morley and Warren coming in to take scholly's. It is rumored that we have a few silents as well.

Ive always thought that we would get Alexander.. and is he visiting this weekend??
and it seems that Curtis is becoming more and more interested in UT lately..
and I would LOVE to snatch at least one of them Oklahoma boys.. as in Owens or McGee.. that would be awesome if we could get both but i doubt it.. i feel that McGee could have an impact right away at DT..

 

[hvwarrior58]

We aren't tapping into Oklahoma this year. I really think Curtis may be leaning to us.

 

[matts42012]

good......i really like him. any word on orhain johnson? i think he could be a really good sleeper. 6'4'', 200+, 4.5 strong arm and good techique

 

[vols kick balls]

Curtis reminds me of Brian Westbrook.

 

[justingroves]

I've said ever since Nutt was fired that UT had a good shot at Curtis.

He would have to add some weight, he is only around 280 right now. I would see him redshirting though. Doubt we get either of them anyways.

 

[hvwarrior58]

Welp, unless he reschedules quickly, Curtis isn't a possibility. He didn't make it in this weekend.

 

[kkep48]

that sucks... did everyone else make it in?

 

[k-sny-vol]

Dang Curtis....
so now we HAVE to land Alexander.. he's the only high profile athlete we got on our board right now.. unless someone else shows up

 

[lacrossepro70]

Curtis with Clawson would be pretty awesome.
