you are right...but how many D1 prospects come from Maryville or Alcoa on a regular basis? Unbelievable programs, but hardly ever a top recruit.

Exactly my point. Go re-read the comment I was responding to. It was about great teams in Mid Tenn and I disagreed.

Just to pick a bit more... Cade Mays and Tee Higgins were as coveted as anyone in the state. Not sure why outstanding players from here leave the state but they often do. Maybe we notice it more.

Caught up with Zion Logue

After the DE from Lebanon (Tenn.) camped with Tennessee today. He thought it went well. Got good feedback from Tracy Rocker and Kevin Sherrer. Said Pruitt told him: "to keep working hard and asked me what they have to do to get me a Tennessee Volunteer."

Sounds the like air was cleared up a bit on Tennessee waiting to offer later than some other schools. Logue said Pruitt wanted to "see if I grew into my body since Junior Day." He had gaining more 15 pounds. He measured in at 6-5, 283 today. Vols like him as that strong-side DE.

He's going to Kentucky tomorrow and Alabama at the end of the week.

Story to come.

“Coach Pruitt said I definitely came into my body from the time I was at Junior Day,” Logue told VolQuest. “That was the main thing coach Pruitt said he was really looking for: Was I going to grow into my body? Basically, they wanted to see how I moved, how I did with the bags and what I could do when I was tired,” he explained.

Logue has been on a whirlwind tour in recent weeks — one that’s seen him net offers from Georgia, Ole Miss, Florida, Kentucky and others after strong camp performances. He’s slated to workout at UK on Wednesday and at Alabama at the end of the week. “It’s been hectic. It’s crazy,” the soft-spoken lineman said. “I can’t even look at my phone now for like five minutes without getting a message on Twitter or coaches texting me.”

Logue plans to narrow down a list of favorites after his final few visits this month, which tentatively includes an official visit to Purdue. He will commit on Sept. 6 — his grandmother’s birthday. “She was my family’s backbone. To see her go down but go out fighting (with cancer) it was something very strong for me and honor her and give back to her,” he said.

“Pruitt told me to keep working hard and asked me what they have to do to get me a Tennessee Volunteer,” Logue said. So what does UT have to do to add Logue to the 2019 class? “That’s a hard question to answer right now,” said Logue, who has a family full of Volunteer fans but grew up with no strong ties to the school. “I need to talk to my family, see what they’re feeling and what I want to do too.”

Real competitors always have something to prove. Staff is doing it right with these evaluations and camps, that’s for sure.
