If there’s a season played, he could end up with his 5th star on rivals. Top 40 prospect already

yeah, the ratings this year are weirder than usual. rivals loves wolfe...247, not so much.

biggest concern is the competition level....otherwise, he seems to have all the measurables you'd want for a TE that you want to "feature" so to speak, in your offense.

i think most people got turned off here because he was, or at least seemed to be, very lukewarm on TN.....and now, all the sudden, we're back in the picture. i sitll think he probably winds up someplace else, but we'll see. has been linked to 3 other programs already in his recruitment, so who knows. may all be BS too.

90 percent of our success in recruiting involves getting kids to campus. We can’t do that right now, and they don’t really want many of the in state kids. Where as UNC will take literally any top 1000 player from North Carolina right now even if they don’t fit the system. They only have a top class because they have more commits than anyone else.

The good thing is, this is the same Issue the rest of the SEC is having right now. Alabama just had their 3rd commit today and as of yesterday was 55th in the nation, last in the SEC? Anyone here think that’s gonna stick? LSU and Auburn are 26th and 27th.. I can guarantee that’s not gonna be the case come February. Along with this, a lot of the top guys that SEC schools want are simply waiting to commit until later on because they can’t visit right now.

Florida is higher, but they’ll go through a ton of attrition and end up about where they’re usually at in that 8-12 range. We’ll go through something similar too I think. Of our 10 commits, I’m willing to bet only 6 of them at most end up in the class. Well probably end up in the 20s at some point before the February signing day. Chances are we finish around where we were at last cycle, and that’s good to keep a steady trend for now if these classes are enough to get us into that 9-10 win range and NY6 bowls. Get there, THEN we can worry about the next step. When we were in the gutter like we were, you can’t get it all at once.

Also, stop getting riled up over in state players. Where a player is from is NOT important. In the 90s when Fulmer had the program at its peak, almost all of the star players on those teams were out of state kids. HS football here has gotten better since then but it’s still not up to par with Georgia, Florida, NC, etc. if I was the head coach at UT, I wouldn’t even have tried to recruit an in state player my first 2-3 years. I would’ve spent all that time in Georgia, NC, SC, Florida, Virginia, Alabama, etc and won big with those recruits, and would have in state kids begging for scholarships down the line so I could take who I want. Now the current staff isn’t gonna do that because there’s typically is 5-6 studs to come out of the state each year. But just because a kid from Tennessee has 4 stars next to his name, that doesn’t mean he’s a take.

Bell and Wolfe

A lot of kids play against bad competition. You recruit and scout like the NFL does. Measurables, attitude and potential.

Who cares about competition level. He clearly holds his own in camps against the level competition. Look at who is involved with his recruitment. You think they aren’t aware of his competition in HS yet still after him? Hell trey Smith might as well have been playing bs a team of tackling dummies as he played worse competition in HS

Personally, I prefer Wolfe and would guarantee himself a spot and let the other two be first come first serve

I actually don’t prefer Wolfe at all. I’d rather have Bell & Matavao. Wolfe just isn’t that physical presence you want in a TE, imo. Bell at 6’7” is a matchup nightmare and only ranked a 3 ⭐️ bc he’s such a raw athlete. Much higher ceiling, to me. Likewise with Matavao.

I'll let the coaches pick but IMO I'd take either of the first two and the third would be out.JMO

Speaking of average, or below. Have you seen the competition he plays against? Dyersburg might be the best he plays against.

Not really concerned about the level of competition. You can't teach what he's got.

I know this is just small town talk so TIFWIW but I live fairly close to Savannah and word going around is that he is all but committed to us. We will see.
Personally like Bell more though

He needs to step on the pedal, then. He may not have a spot if he waits too long.
