Williams is 100% Vol

Walls could be interesting-- apparently he is going to have a hard time clearing academically for UT this Jan and Ole Miss is telling him they can get him in now. That difference in time may be enough for him to jump ship.

Everything about the others I've heard is good, still commitments as of now and want to learn more about Kiffin.


As for Barkley, he isn't coming. The head USC guy on Rivals checked for the Vols board and Barkley is super committed. Even so, he's not as great as touted. I wouldn't expect anyone at QB aside from Brice Petty this year-- which is fine, the general thought is that Kiffin will be able to get a super star next year.

Soft Verbal = ''I'm gonna take care of me and get mine....I come 1st not the university. If at such time in my opinion it becomes in my intrest to accept your scholarship offer, I'll call you don't call me.

yea I guess I see your point.. they may not be team players, but it does worry me some... When is signing day, is it Feb. 1st? They don't have to sign on that day do they? That is the 1st day they can sign... right?

Signing day is the first day they can sign, but I think they get an extra month if they want. I'm not sure if it's the 1st or not, but it is usually the first part of February.

Also, Scout considers a soft verbal as a kid who is taking visits. BUT...just because they are taking visits doesn't necessarily mean they aren't 100% committed. Some kids like to take visits so they can be treated like royalty for a weekend.
