‘23 TN LB Arion Carter (Tennessee)

[bigl3327]

Well done. You even told ‘em you were gonna do and still caught a couple fish…er, I mean, interactions.

I actually thought more would bite.

Just can’t accept a Nashville area (where I’m from) player at a position of need for our beloved Vols going down I-65 to play for the Crimson Slime. Doesn’t sit right with me.

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

I think Carter is for sure heavily considering us. That interview seemed like we did very well on that visit! GBO!

Bring him home Herring brothers! Hope they are texting all weekend while he’s in dumpville.

Agree. Alabama has landed a Nashville area kid or two over the years, but for the most part, Nashville has been heavily Big Orange Country. I don’t like Bama taking kids out of Memphis either, but it’s more understandable than them taking Nashville kids.

Nobody knew who this kid was until September.

Now the entire future of the program hinges on his commitment.

Straight from the sewers of W TN, another future portaler hinges an entire program's short term success.

He would be a great get at this point. Not going to lose my cookies if he does not come here. I think the staff has recruited very well this cycle.

He’s now going on the Bama visit to recruit players to the portal for us,

Very Talented LB he and Smith are difference makers Athletically and Jeremiah not far off himself. If we get Carter what a LB class. Coach Banks loves to play 4 inside Backers because of the physical and Mental strain it takes to play at SEC level. Let's go Coach pull this one in. In CHRIST Alone

Told y’all. The amount of peer recruiting here is amazing. This recruiting class is very close and the bond is set for the 24’ guys too.

Had an in-home visit from Saban yesterday.

I wonder if saban begged like a bitch like he did the other night on national tv.

Not a commit (yet)...but jumped from a 5.8 4* outside to the R250 to a 5.9 4* and #107 overall

That is what is known as a Bama bump .

 

[LouderVol]

We also beat these guys head to head for a number of guys already
- Nico: beat everyone
- Hobbs: beat Bama and Georgia
- Gibson: beat Georgia
- Matthews: beat Texas but LSU/Alabama wanted badly
- Herring: Georgia tried hard
- Sham: beat Georgia

We basically had 0 in that group last class and 6 in this class (and Carter would make 7.. Davis 8). Next year I'd guess we have at least 12 head-to-head win types vs. Alabama/Georgia.

Great point. It bothers me when people say we need to "start" winning these battles. We have done that. And you are never going to win them all.
