No. UT is seeking to become the new MTSU program in the state. We are going to let MTSU take over the role of major program in the state. Old recruiting rankings > everything else!

Justin Jefferson was one of those pitiful 2 star low 3 star prospects. LSU would’ve been wiser to never give him a shot 😉

I think you guys are mistaking my question as an opinion. It's not. It was a question as to their development since entering college since I know almost nothing about these guys.

Are they better than what we’ve had out there? That’s really my only question.

However, this ^^^^ is the better question. Guess we won't know much until and if they come here.

Problem is that guys we will be counting on next year need to be here for spring practice. Not saying a quick study can't pick things up with just a fall camp, but the OL needs cohesion. You want your OL getting as many reps together as possible. Now is the getting time not after spring ball for guys you want will be counting on next season at the jump.

The beauty is a lot of schools will be back in school next week.

UT first day of class is Jan 22.

You’re asking your question to people that know almost nothing about these guys, so if you’re expecting an informative answer…………….

You can trust that THE COACHES think they’re an improvement. However much that’s worth.

LOL, how did I not realize he was rated that low (2-star on Rivals, 83 3-star on 247)? I guess he is a stud at LSU drafted in the first round and I would just assume he came in as a top prospect 2.5 years earlier…

People like to moan about our portal recruiting, but how many teams in this Top 10 should we actually be envious of? Elite teams aren’t building rosters through the portal. Outside of Ole Miss and Washington, it is mostly just mediocre programs trying to use it to catch up to elite programs.

I don’t think the top 10 on one site for just this year - which isn’t done yet - tells the whole story. And that’s also based on number of players, not quality of players.

TCU was only in the playoffs last year bc of the portal. FSU was in the top 5 all year long, largely because of the portal. Uga, Oregon, osu, lsu, usc, notre dame, and many other ranked teams, have all made good use of the portal.

Unless you get a bigger bang for the buck next cycle. They plug and play in the pros all the time. Let the competition overpay and deplete their bank accounts this pass and be prepared in May. It is however possible this position will not be at the top of the needs list when the 83 number comes more into focus. Bet Cooper could clear things up quick for some guys starting in June.

The talent in the current window will be better than the talent in the Spring window, overall. Wait and see.

I agree. One would think that spring practice would be huge for any portal jumper....especially on the OL and at WR where timing is so critical.

So let's say we get the Kansas OL. We're still in trouble on the OL unless someone already on the team ca step up and provide solid play. Word is Heard wants to be a LT and we already have a LT. And LA Vol said Pounds didn't make it in today. So if we can't land Heard or Pounds, we still have an open spot on the OL. Let's say the Kansas kid slots into RT, we still would need a quality OG to play opposite Spraggins. And even if we land another portal OL, I hope we see enough development in guys like Umarov and Lang to see them get some meaningful snaps.
