'20 TX QB Haynes King (TAMU Commit)

[Devo182]

Whatever he decides, the recruitment will continue. Still six months till December.

Everyone close say him and his family will stick to the decision.

Any mods at 247 or Rivals comment on the latest recently?

Gabe, lead 247 expert, gave us groundbreaking news 50 minutes ago that it won't be decided tonight.....

No, you fools!

You let it run over 50 pages!

Mods, do something quick!

Just saying it’s never been a boon to depth...despite conventional opinion. Have already stated I’m cool with one stud per class. Really intrigued by Shadeuer Sanders in the 21 class. He could redshirt during Bailey’s redshirt freshman season and there’s a plausible succession line along with taking a flier on lower rated QB’s depending on transfers or declaring early. The elite programs seem to follow that plan.

Yep, ideally you bring in one per class, that way they feel like ‘the man’ and the bell cow for the recruiting class. Keep saying QB mentality is just different. Was asked Tuesday by a couple Bama guys this week if I thought King would pick UT. Told them I wasn’t sure, seems to want UT but is the distance too far? I asked them why, they are of the opinion they take a swing at Bailey if King commits. They have been trying to flip Bryce Young but BY seems to be losing interest in going anywhere but USC.

If King commits, do I see Bailey decommitting? NO
Especially not immediately, but as Butchna is saying, who’s the lead dog? Does King then try to get his buddies in this class? I see Bailey sticking, but it absolutely adds a different piece to a complex puzzle.

Tennessee continues to wait for word from 4-star quarterback Haynes King, who is mulling a decision between the Vols and the Texas A&M Aggies. King really likes UT coaches Chris Weinke and Jim Chaney, and the high-upside QB believes in the development potential of Tennessee’s staff. Several UT player continue to work hard on King,too.

Ultimately, the the Longview quarterback is legitimately torn on a decision. He’s weighing Chaney’s track record of developing QBs vs. Jimbo Fisher’s track record, as well as distance from home.

Regardless how the King battle plays out, the Vols are looking to add two quarterbacks in the 2020 cycle. They’ll either add King or look to explore the transfer market after the 2019 season. They want to add two new quarterbacks to the room next fall, as Jarrett Guarantano could opt to go pro following this season. They also want to protect themselves in case of a transfer

Not a ton of info from VQ but still, compared to that Perroni guy...

"He'll probably pick one of the teams. Maybe soon but if not, probably later. Maybe, according to my sources"

The good news is even if King picks A&M we still get to argue over taking a 2nd QB!

A lot of these reports make it out that Jimbo is a much better QB developer. Is he that much better at QB’s than Chaney. Chaney has put several guys in NFL too.

Thought you had lost faith in VQ and was going to let your sub go. Good news you have renewed devotion to their guessing.

I thought so too but they have me on auto pay annual renewal. I'm stuck sharing guesses.

I've never had Volquest. I had GoVols247 a few years ago. You literally had to call a 1-800 number to cancel your subscription and they give you the run around for 10 mins and try to convince you not to cancel.

It was my fault, I shouldn't have ask that type of question.

If you don’t think JG will get a shot in NFL then your clueless. He has the arm, toughness, and work ethic. He just needs the right coaching to bring the mental part along. He also needs an OL to help him a little. He has improved yr to yr. it only takes one big yr for a QB to get picked high with supply/demand at that position. Regardless some team will see that arm and work ethic and give him a shot

When does the dead period start?

JG going pro? In what sport??

Probably Nascar. He has provide that he can survive multiple car crashes everytime he goes out on the field.

The day that you arrive home from your honeymoon.

Keep hoping to refresh this thread and see "UT COMMIT" in the title. Either way we're in good hands with Bailey...would just love to see the competition

 

[volfaninpa]

There have been enough statements about JG either going pro or that he's already graduated and could transfer to lead me to believe that he intends to leave one way or the other. He's been through a lot and I hope he has a good enough season to be considered for the NFL draft.

Do not see him transferring. The kid loves UT, and if he has a big year this year, he will either go Pro or finish here his RS Senior year.

I agree. I believe he and Chaney are planning on a big year out of this offense and JG will leave early and get drafted. As @Nashvegas31 pointed out, he's got all the tools just need better OL play and coaching. He should get those this fall. Look what Chaney did with Crompton and Bray. I believe Chaney is going to make JG into a 3-5 round draft pick.

Then he would deserve his initials....JC
