Stone will be a Vol.

 

[RockyTop411]

Yup

 

[GahLee]

Stone is a huge need at this point, I know Kiffin and crew had guys higher, and honestly we missed on some better OL prospects but getting Stone would be a great addition.

He will be a Vol.

 

[TrueOrange]

honestly, i would just be glad to get some more olinemen period

 

[GATechVOL]

All-Vol.

 

[futureVOL9]

Thats Bama's last spot, wait nevermind because Allen de-commited right?

 

[sjt18]

Not sure how much in question Stone was even before this announcement. Everything was point to him being a Vol.

 

[SaluteToTheHill]

I think Stone realized that Nick is the prince of darkness.

FWIW Alabama had him at the top of their list. Not a 5 star but Saban and crew has done a pretty good job of evaluating talent.

Thanks, Ov75. Good find and good insight from a true Vol and former player. (do you have any eligibility left?)

I'm not sure what I like better. Us maybe getting Stone (I do remember a time we were in it for Kouandijo) or USC/X/O NOT getting AK! They were trying! He was "so excited" for his 1/29 visit there that was supposed to be a visit to UT. Haha. Now what...crime doesn't pay X & O!

He did not care for X and told this to the press this week. I hope he will be a Vol and would make the class very impressive. Great job DD :good!:

James Stone is the best uncommitted guard in the country.

 

[dead.head.vol]

Watch out for those Middle TN Bama boosters who directed Danta Higtower to the enemy. I've heard stories about Maplewood's coach getting a new $3,000 ice machine for their locker room from an anonymous donor. I'll believe he is a VOL when he signs his LOI.

Says his other finalist was USC is that Kiffin and co. he dumped.

 

[Majorvol23]

My sentiments exactly...

 

[utman47]

Will Stone start as a frosh?

 

[goidtman]

Come on Down!

 

[dead.head.vol]

Will Stone start as a frosh?

I think not. He needs a little improvement in his technique, etc... I heard Brandon Willis pushed him around a bunch in camp.

 

[MboroVol]

"Higher guys" or not, 4-star OL is good enough for me!

 

[volroadwarrior]

I would prefer USC get Arie what's his name than the toilet paper brigade. Only upside is that we could get Stone as a result.

 

[BamaFossil]

Dang. If K-boy had waited until after NSD to leave, I think we would have been a clear leader for Stone. As things stand, y'all appear to be the team to beat for his LOI.

If he ends up at TN, congratulations.

Will Stone start as a frosh?

No.
