Another point that deserves special consideration is the weight that will not be accorded to our large number of high-quality JUCO players by Rivals.com. According to this source (ESPN Football Recruiting - Player Rankings - ESPN), five of the Top Fifty JUCO prospects nationally are committed to Tennessee: (2) Lavon Pearson, (6) Davonte Lambert, (26) Dontavius Blair, (29) Chris Weatherd, and (40) Owen Williams. By their ranking, Tennessee has more commitments among the Top 50 JUCO prospects in the country than any other program. And the Big Orange haul of JUCO blue chips could go still higher. Uncommited prospects for whom Tennessee remains a serious contender include: (23) Eric Lauderdale, (30) Jarran Reed, and (41) Calvin Heurteleu. Unlike the top 250 Rivals.com high school prospects, there will be no bonus points associated with their rankings, despite the fact that everyone of them fills a position of need superbly for us.
