'24 TN DB Boo Carter (Tennessee)

[benholt06]

The message to Boo right now is Boulder is just going to be a stop for Prime. He will move on to flashier things, a bigger job in 2-3 years.

He’s had a visit planned out there for awhile. It’s a chance to experience the hype and see something new. It doesn’t make him a "bad leader" or anything just because he takes the opportunity.

In the grand scheme of things this visit concerns me very little.

If Boo wants to play 2 ways then give him a chance to play 2 ways.

If Boo can be one of the best 11 on offense and defense at the same time then give it a try. I think it's a recipe for injury and puts a lot of stress on a player.

I agree, but you give him the chance and see where he inevitably fits in.

Its a new portal world. They aren't going there for Colorado. They're going there for Deion. If he's gone in 3 years, they'll go with him. I agree with everything else you're saying but I don't think "Deion is gonna leave" is as good of an argument as it was 5 years ago in recruiting. If you're a top notch player like Travis Hunter he's taking you with him.

No no! You're a horrible leader, who should never expand your horizons beyond the small minds of strangers.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

This ain’t going to sit well with the “Boo is gone” crowd.

That is just something a crazy person came up with to stoke fear and/or to henny penny.

Bunch o' weasels

Agreed!

That's not a problem for them at all. This was an actual current quote directly from Boo. They'll just ignore it and pretend it never happened. The sky is falling. Haven't you heard?

I understand what you’re saying but not every kid is Travis Hunter. There are dozens still down at JSU who committed to Prime and are now left in the lurch.

Boo’s quote pretty much affirmed what I thought. He’s just taking the opportunity to see it, get wined and dined. Really don’t think there’s much to see here. I’m way more worried about Saturday than this.

I hope this is the whole deal. I just don't want to get to cocky. He has been selling UT to a lot of recruits, but there is always some risk.

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

Deion will be a great secondary coach here in 3 years.

 

[swampfoxfan]

If we lose Boo expect the entire class to collapse

I don't think he will flip bit if he does we will shrug our shoulders and move on. I sincerely doubt the class colapses

huh

There is a lot of risk if his Mother is going with him. I haven't heard that though just something to consider.

Saw an interview with Deon, and he said he felt sorry for High School kids cause with the Transfer portal he wasnt going to be taking many. He said we might take 3 or 4, but why would I take kids I have no idea what they can do, when I can take players from other teams that I know what they can do. So unless he can make the top 3 or 4 on Deons list there probably aint a spot anyways.

Makes sense considering he only had 8 commits lol

I was actually thinking about this the other day, I was like “why does he have so few commits?” Answers my question

This is the Deion first attitude I would expect from Deion.

TN needs to stomp FL and I think we will if we play our A---even our B game. TN plays at 7pm on ESPN----the game following ours...CU vs CO state. Poetic.

He would 1000% take a commitment from Boo

If you were the hot name who could cherry pick other teams best players you would be stupid no too.
Deion or no Deion.
