Tennessee in position for possibility of pulling top 2 Offensive tackles in 2019 class

[Negan]

According to 247 Sports’ Shannon Terry, it’s a definite possibility. In fact, he’s even projecting it to happen. Tennessee has already secured a commitment from five-star tackle Wanya Morris, who is ranked as the top tackle in the nation. The five-star Darnell Wright comes in right behind Morris, checking in at 9th overall in 247’s composite rankings.

Butch recruited the lines like the non-power five coach that he is. We need big talented play makers and unfortunately you can't coach players into NFL size. We need like 3 Shy Tuttles and 3 Drew Richmonds at all times.

That would be the bomb but is Morris going to flip. Again we have been spurned so many times at the last minute.

CJP needs a 6-6 record, and a win vs. FL, WVU, or SCe to lock this class down.

Butch recruited very good on the OL. He just failed miserably at getting the guys coached up. And you dont think an undersized OL can be molded into an NFL caliber through a good S&C program??

Wright and Morris are guys you build a very good class around

I’ll need to see a lot from Richmond to say he’s a guy you build around.

Butch recruited Trey Smith. He just hired his buddies that were way in over their heads to coach the OL...

I like the sound of an offensive line with Trey Smith, Wanya Morris, Darnell Wright and Kennedy with Dominique at TE. Good grief that would be off the chain good.

This. Long way to go. So far so good though

The two best OTs plus Lampley who is a solid 4* in his own right and a rehabbed S&C program makes great strides at flipping a weakness to a strength!

If we get those three, we will be in great shape with Oline recruits this year.

We'll, if you're gonna recruit 2 tackles, you should be thankful that everybody thinks they're the best.

Don't you mean five Derek Barnett's and seven Trey Smith's at all times???

Well thankfully we have one more OG in Akporaghehehe(sp). He built like a Presa Canario. Beast.

Why are people thinking Morris will flip? Has he given any indication of such? I know he liked Auburn, but Is there anything to make people believe a flip is coming?

Forgot about him. Yeah, let's make it a special class starting with the trenches and CBs.
