THE University of Tennessee Volunteers 2017 Football Recruiting Class

[Kristy*]

Personally don't think young Mckenzie will be a part of this class due to knee concerns. Will land himself a good spot on a west coast team IMO


Which sucks b/c he's a great kid

If he doesn't come here, it would have to be UCLA. But I really would like to see him in orange.

THAT DL haul won't get it done. Need more.

Also, a QB.

Crosby is Elite. Don't just look at rankings

 

[Pacer92]

I think Chase Hayden will make a good fit. Underrated a bit imo...

But that's not happening.

Assumptions, assumptions, assumptions. Glad you're that confident in the whims of 16 year olds.

So overall, I think that adds up to 26. With only 12 scholarship seniors, there will have to be a lot of attrition, but I'm just guessing that Butch will want to take a full, loaded class. Good enough for 7th, according to last year's rankings.

This is exactly what I was going to point out. We have a very small senior class again. Creamer transferring gives us 13 scholarships currently available for 2017 players. Obviously there will be some more attrition (there always is), and we should have some juniors go pro early, but I don't think we take full class. I'm guessing it ends up being comparable to last year (low 20s).

Nice...

I have been thinking that UT will not take a QB in this cycle as well. Dormady, Jones, and Guarantano will be on the roster next year. Sears could be a possibility, but I don't think it would be necessary with Trevor Lawrence hopefully coming in the fold in 2018.

You're assuming no one transfers...brave assumption. Once upon a time, A&M was glutted with 5 star QBs. :hmm:

 

[Mookie]

Need more. Numbers.

Gaddy would be big as well. Have a friend that saw him stand flat footed under a goal and dunk it. Freak athlete

 

[BigOrangeVols]

If we do as well as I'm hoping this year...this list may look a little different

 

[Biopsyman]

Late fall comes the "big fish" thread that produces nothing.. Classic

No way Butch doesn't clown Dabo and land Corradian Richardson and Amari Rogers. Nobody from Tennessee picks Greenville over Knoxville.
Tee clowning Dabo too of course.
