Current Commit News:
Tuesday:
  • Preston Williams: “Tennessee is where I want to be, and I always wanted to be there at the end of the day,” said Williams, who’s ranked by 247Sports as the nation’s No. 20 overall prospect and No. 1 wide receiver in the 2015 class. “That’s my school, my family.” The 6-foot-4, 190-pound Williams visited Clemson, Florida, Georgia and Auburn within a span of less than five weeks in February and March, and he said at the time that he was “still open” but “still committed” to Tennessee. But he admitted that he recently had been thinking “for a while” about closing the door on other schools, and he finally decided to take that step last week. “Tennessee was my favorite school growing up,” Williams said. “When I first went there, I kind of got a good vibe off of it. I feel comfortable there, and it’s somewhere I can play for the next four years. “I knew I wanted to be there at the end of the day.” Williams said it doesn’t hurt that his fiancee’s decision to enroll at Tennessee this fall is now “final,” and that’s at least “part” of the reason he chose to shut down his recruitment. Vols coach Butch Jones, wide receivers coach Zach Azzanni and the rest of Tennessee’s staff have told Williams over the past several months that he could earn early playing time once he arrives on campus. But Williams said he knows “that’s got to be earned.” Other schools, including Auburn, have continued to reach out to Williams, he said, and he added his most recent scholarship offer from Michigan less than three weeks ago. But he said there’s “no chance” he will change his mind in the coming months and decide to explore some of his other options. While Williams hasn’t visited Tennessee since January, he said he’s hoping to return there soon to spend time with his future coaches and teammates. “We’re still deciding (when I will visit) — probably after my spring game and stuff,” he said. - 247
Sunday:
  • Jauan Jennings: "Jauan Jennings' spring film has been added to his 247Sports profile. The film is exclusively of Jennings playing quarterback. A spring commitment to Tennessee, Jennings is considered by many as an athlete due to his ability to play quarterback, wide receiver, safety or even linebacker in college. But Jennings has his heart set on quarterback and Tennessee has told him that he'll have the opportunity to compete there. While Jennings still has enormous upside at other positions, it is increasingly hard to ignore his steady improvement as a passer. His spring film shows improved footwork, a quick release and a strong arm from the pocket." -Barton Simmons, 247

ATH Recruiting:
Friday:
  • Johnathon Johnson: "The 5-foot-8, 175-pound slot receiver keeps in contact with coach Mark Elder and plans on making a return camp visit to Tennessee this summer. "Coach Elder, that's a good coach. He's been telling me that they're really waiting to see what I'm going to do and that I would fit perfectly in their offense and they are just waiting to see what's going to happen," Johnson said. Johnson believes he would be a good fit in Tennessee's offense because the of how the Vols use the slot position. "That's something I look at a lot because I'm a slot guy. I look at it a lot to see how I would play in their offense and that's on of the factors I look at and I like," Johnson said. Louisville is the most recent team to offer Johnson and he plans to visit there this summer along with Ole Miss, florida, Florida State and Kentucky." -VQ
Sunday:
  • Stanley Norman: "Norman said Tennessee and Notre Dame are popping out to him a lot. He said Tennessee will definitely get one of his official visits in the fall." - Rivals

QB Recruiting:
Monday:
  • Torrance Gibson: COLUMBUS, Ohio – When four-star quarterback Torrance Gibson released his first top 15 last week and Ohio State was No. 4 behind Tennessee, Auburn and LSU, he knew that would be a shock for Buckeye fans. Because it was a shock to Ohio State's coaches. “They hit me up on Twitter really quick saying, ‘Whoa, whoa – what’s that list about?’ " Gibson told Cleveland.com in a phone interview Sunday. "And I was like, ‘Relax, I haven’t taken a visit.’ The list is based on what I know about the school right now. The list can change. Ohio State could be No. 1. Only time will tell.” That must have been a relief to hear considering Gibson's recruitment has become immeasurably important for Ohio State since four-star quarterback prospect Brandon Wimbush of Jersey City (N.J.) St. Peter's Prep committed to Penn State. Wimbush was one of two of the Buckeyes' top quarterback prospects, so his commitment leaves Gibson, Rivals.com's No. 2-rated dual-threat quarterback in the 2015 class, as the Buckeyes top target. So being No. 4 and behind three elite SEC programs is uncomfortable for Ohio State. But it seems like it will only be temporary. "Ohio State has always been up there," the product of Plantation (Fla.) American Heritage said. "I stay in contact with all of the coaches, they check up on me from time-to-time and I am going to take an official visit to Ohio State during the season. That will give me the chance to go up there and see the campus and the coaches and everything, which I haven't done yet. "It was nice to have their attention that quickly, though. That told me a lot about Ohio State and how they feel about me. When I take a visit there, they'll probably move up very high." - cleveland.com
  • Zach Gentry commits to Texas
  • Deondre Francois: The 6-foot-1, 190-pound gun slinger maintains his top five is currently Auburn, Florida State, Ohio State, Oregon and Tennessee. - 247
  • Zach Gentry: Gentry hadn't talked to any media outlet for almost a month. He was still talking to Tennessee and had talked to them every week leading up to his announcement. When Brent said shut it down, he meant with media outlets, not with coaches and teams. One reason he decided to go to Texas, after talking to some people, was the distance factor. Liked Tennessee, but with Austin being much closer that may have made the difference. Some other QB names to remember are certainly Gibson, the Darnold kid in Cali, Dungey in Oregon, Brian Lewerke from Arizona, Francois from Florida, Waller from California and Sheriron Jones from California, too. Bajakian is doing another West Coast swing this week and will see several more guys and those we mentioned as he continues to evaluate guys. Jones may be one to watch as an offer guy." -Fortenberry
  • Sheriron Jones: "It seems like half the quarterbacks in the country have already committed, so I might need to make a choice soon to make sure I have my spot," Jones said of his timeline. "I had wanted to commit after our first game of the year. All the schools that have offered are still near the top of my list, even those that have quarterback commitments already. They're all talking to me, making me feel important and continuing to recruit me so I am making sure I am keeping all my options open." - Jeremy Birmingham
Wednesday:
  • Deondre Francois: 247 article summarized by BTBO - It says the six schools he likes are Oregon, Florida St, Florida, Ohio St, Auburn, and Tennessee. He's going to try to take some visits this Summer and make a good decision at The Opening. Francois wants to visit Ohio St, Auburn, Florida St, and Tennessee and see what the atmosphere feels like at those places. Wants to meet the players and then coaches and see how he feels. Florida continues to be the school that contacts him the most and many think Florida leads, but Francois disagrees with that notion. All teams are equal and he would go into each visit with an open mind. He said he doesnt know what to expect and he is very excited. Crystal ball is split 50/50, Fla St/Fla and is probably because 2 influential people in his life are his IMG coach former Nole, Chris Weinke and 7 on 7 coach Florida alum, Keiwan Ratliff. Francois said neither of the 2 is trying to influence his decision. Rather telling him to follow his heart and do what's best for him. He intends to make a decision sometimevat The Opening that starts on July 7th in Beaverton, Oregon and concludes July 10th. He also said he would still take some if not all of his visits this Fall.
  • Vols offer Sheriron Jones
  • Sheriron Jones: "First off, as it's been posted on the board today, Sheriron Jones was offered today. He's a quarterback out of California and Bajakian was out there to see him today. He's a guy that's shown some real improvement since his season and more schools continue to look at, as Florida offered last week. What's interesting is Jones is very much aware of the quarterback dominoes out there. He told me that he wanted to commit after the first game of his season but since sports are starting to be taken he understands he may not have the luxury to wait that long. He's interested in Tennessee and said he's going to try very hard to be in Knoxville in early June for the quarterback camp." - Fortenberry
Thursday:
  • Sheriron Jones: "Coach Jake hit me up and told me to give him a call in a little bit and I did and he told me that I needed to talk to coach Jones about everything," Jones explained," and he set everything up and he told me he was fired up to hear my voice and was looking forward to getting to know me and told me to name one place that the quarterback and the coach had the same last name, just joking around." "I know about Peyton Manning and I know the history about it," Jones said. "Just when you hear the name Peyton Manning you have to know where he went and everything like that. It's just great to hear that one of the greatest quarterback in the game is there and he's going to come back and teach you and you can learn how to read coverages and how to get your protections down and everything from him." "Anywhere that's allowing to go to their school for free and play college ball I'm really excited about it," Jones offered. "It's a great opportunity to go show my talents everywhere and let people know that somebody from California can go to the SEC and show some of those guys up." "At first, I was kind of trying to take an easy and I was going to make a decision after the first game of my senior year," Jones explained. "But, now with everyone starting to commit and getting spots I'm probably going to make a decision earlier than I thought. But, as of right now I'm waiting after my first game but I may just have to make that decision earlier than that." -VQ
  • Dwayne Lawson commits to Miami
  • Sam Darnold: "San Clemente coach Jaime Ortiz said he's heard from numerous schools in recent days and many of those that came out to see Darnold have already offered. "Sometimes you have kids who start slow and finish strong and vice versa and Sam is the real deal. Last year when he got hurt we knew it was going to take some time for recruiters to really notice him but if he's healthy all of last year our season is different and right now he's holding 15-20 offers and he's as good as any quarterback in the nation. "It's good to see that programs are seeing that and taking the time to come out here and see him throw, looking at his transcripts and taking part in that process. He's the real deal and I'd put him up against any quarterback in the nation." San Clemente started spring practice this week and many other programs have expressed interest in coming out which means Darnold could land more offers soon. UCLA and Stanford visited along with Vanderbilt late last week. Mississippi State, Oregon, Duke, Boston College and Oregon State are some of the other teams reaching out. "If you look at his offers, Northwestern, Wake Forest, Tennessee, they all saw him throw and they had a chance to evaluate him," Ortiz said. "They got to see him physically. "Utah was the first one to pick up on it last year and this was before his junior season and now a lot of programs that I talk to said if they take a quarterback he's the guy. They've had an opportunity to see a lot of different quarterbacks in Southern California and Sam ranks right up there with them."" -Rivals
Friday:
  • Deondre Francois: "After Gibson, there's Florida quarterback Deondre Francois who has the Vols firmly in his top five and some believe it's closer to the top. Florida State could be a factor if the push, but some wonder with their solid quarterback numbers, including one already this class, if they will end up settling with what they have. Oregon could possibly be a factor if the distance isn't too far. Florida is in the mix, but some in the Sunshine State don't feel the Gators are trending there." -VQ
Sunday:
  • Vols offer Brian Lewerke. He says his commitment to MSU is solid
  • Travis Waller: "According to 247Sports National Recruiting Director Steve Wiltfong, who is reporting live from the Bay Area Nike Football Training Camp, two potential "game changing" offers in the recruitment of elite four-star quarterback Travis Waller (Anaheim, Calif./Servite) would be Ohio State (Wiltfong says the Buckeyes could offer soon) and Oregon. The 6-foot-4 dual-threat said that among his current offers, his two favorites were Alabama and Northwestern. Recruiting experts from across the country agree with the Ducks being a huge factor if they through their hat in the ring. The Ducks have 92 percent of the predictive expert vote on 247Sports Crystal Ball" - 247

RB Recruiting:
Thursday:
  • Jovon Robinson commits to Auburn
Sunday:
  • Alvin Kamara: Was Alvin Kamara on campus this weekend? "He was here this weekend. We will try and get in touch with him but I remember he was very hard to get in touch with last time around. I'm not sure who leads or where anything stands in his recruitment. We will try and catch up with him." -Fortenberry

WR Recruiting:
Thursday:
  • Vols offer Irvine Charles
  • Calvin Ridley: "Thursday afternoon, Tennessee wide receivers coach Zach Azzanni stopped by Coconut Creek (Fla.) Monarch High, home of Top247 wide receiver and currently Alabama commit Calvin Ridley. The 6-foot-1, 175-pound Ridley committed to the Crimson Tide last month immediately following their spring game. Miami is the considered the school that came in second for Ridley's services, but sources indicate that the four-star prospect will visit Knoxville this summer to tour the UT campus." - 247
Saturday:
  • Vols have picked up recruitment on Jalen McCleskey

OLine Recruiting:
Tuesday:
  • Drew Richmond: Summarized by Ron Swanson - Fortenberry has an interview with Richmond up on VQ...he says that depth chart and relationship with the coaches are the most important things when deciding on a school. He said UT's depth chart is very favorable and that they don't have many OT's. He also said he has a great relationship with the staff, especially Mahoney and Butch, said he talks to Butch just about every other day. Mentioned OSU, LSU, UNC, Bama, UGA and FSU as schools he's still talking to and interested in. Says he's going to take visits to Bama, UNC, UGA, OSU, Michigan this summer, and Rivals 5 star challenge in Maryland. He plans to commit September 9th but will also take all 5 OV's this fall.
Wednesday:
  • Vols offer Michael Howard
Thursday:
  1. Vols offer Conner Dyer
Sunday:
  • Josh Wariboko: “(jones) just really liked the way that i’m physical and how i’m athletic and i can do a lot. I’m versatile. (mahoney) came by the school, and the offensive coordinator also came by the school,” said wariboko, who’s ranked the nation’s no. 111 overall prospect and no. 5 offensive guard in the 247sports composite for the 2015 class. “it was pretty good to see that they came by twice. “my mom’s cousin was actually reggie white, and my mom is from tennessee. She was born there, and that’s where her side of the family is from — chattanooga,” wariboko said. “there’s actually a photo in my living room with reggie and his family and my mom at a tennessee game. I’ve known about tennessee for a really long time now, and that’s just a team that i’ve always known about." - 247

LB Recruiting:
Monday:
  • Josh Smith: His "co-leaders" are Vandy & Bama. He is starting to talk more with UT again, but says communication with them is "up and down." Thinks he is a better fit for a 3-4, but likes UT's aggressive defense. Likes the idea he could help bring UT back to where it was and wants to be a leader. Thig is main recruiter. Will visit in the coming weeks, along with Auburn and others. Thinks he can come in and compete for playing time on our young D with his work ethic. Per scout/ Summarized by wU-Tang Vol
Thursday:
  • Tevon Coney: “I don’t have any favorites, but the schools that have really been on me are Notre Dame, Florida, Miami. Those are probably the schools that have really been pushing for me to come up there. Also Tennessee.” The Vols are in constant communication with Coney as they try to get him on campus this summer. “Tennessee, I call the linebackers coach once a week and we chat on Twitter and Facebook a lot. He just sees how I’m doing and how my mom and dad are doing and trying to get me up there. It’s a great program and a great fan base. I hear they have a great facility and school. I’m just excited to get up there and see what they have to offer.” The current plan for Coney’s recruitment is to narrow his list at the beginning of the summer and then take an extended tour of campuses across the country hitting all of his finalists. “This summer I’ll be going to Ohio State, I’ll be going to Tennessee, I’ll be going to Notre Dame, I’ll probably go back down to Florida, Auburn, Kentucky, Mississippi State. I’ll be taking a lot of visits over the summer, but I’ll be narrowing my list down June 10. “I’m going to try to narrow it down between five and ten. If I can narrow it down between five and ten, those will be the schools I visit. The five or ten I’ll see this summer definitely.” The summer visits will be critical for Coney, who wants to commit sometime during his senior season. “I just want to see what they have to offer me and my family. Just let me know I’m comfortable there, have a great staff, great people around, great facility, I’m looking at everything. Basically see if I can fit there.” - 247
Sunday:
  • Darrin Kirkland Jr commits to Michigan

DLine Recruiting:
Monday:
  • D'Andre Walker: "I like Georgia and Tennessee so far. They're standing out. I just like them bc they are the places that I've been to that I can say I've liked." "Every time I go to Tennessee I learn something a little different, and I get a better bond with all the players." -247
  • Sterling Johnson tweets a decision is coming much sooner than October after discussing things with my family
Tuesday:
  • Sterling Johnson: "Tennessee has long been out in front there. Johnson's stock has fallen off a bit with those who have seen him at camps and such. I'm not completely sure he will end up announcing today. I think some schools would like to see him at their camp. He has never been on Tennessee's campus. We are watching it closely today." - Hubbs
  • Sterling Johnson commits to Clemson
  • Sterling Johnson: Per this article, Defensive tackle Sterling Johnson back in play after Tennessee slow played him we slow played Johnson
Wednesday:
  • Kahlil McKenzie: “out of those top five, (tennessee and arizona) are really the clear ones right now,” he said. “other ones, there are things that might catapult them above one of those schools, but i’m just waiting to figure out a couple things about those schools to really see if those push them over those two.” “and i’ve been in this thing for this long now, and i can safely say you can’t beat those vol fans. Vol nation is absolutely crazy. … i love the school. I mean, my cousin goes there, so he’s able to give me a good idea of student life and stuff like that. My family lives 5 minutes away and 10 minutes away, and i’ve got family in (chattanooga) and family in nashville.” -247 He's not sure exactly how he wants to end his recruitment. He will probably pick a school the beginning of July, but could be longer. There is a chance he won't take any more visits before making a choice.
  • Vols make Darian Roseboro's top 10
  • Darian Roseboro: "Darian Roseboro released his top 10 today and there was no surprise as Tennessee was listed as one of those schools. But, what is interesting is that Roseboro could be in Knoxville this weekend for a visit. He said he's not 100 percent sure he can make it in as of Wednesday night, but he said he was hoping and the plan was to be in Knoxville on Saturday." - Fortenberry
  • Marlon Gonzalez: "Willie Martinez saw defensive lineman Marlon Gonzalez today in South Florida but the real connection there is Robert Gillespie. One of Gonzalez's coaches is a former teammate of Gillespie's, Earnest Graham (Vol fans, I'm sure, remember him)." - Fortenberry
Thursday:
  • Vols offer Jason Strowbridge
  • Raequan Williams: "Right now I would probably say Iowa, Arizona and Arizona State," said Williams. "I have a couple favorites but I still want to get out and see Penn State, Tennessee and Mizzou before I name my [top school]." Williams has visited Arizona, Arizona State and Iowa in the last couple months. His most recent visit was to Iowa in April to check out a spring practice. "It is a pretty nice place, I liked it a lot," Williams said of the Hawkeyes. "They can develop my game a lot. They send players to the League a lot." Missouri, Tennessee and Penn State are all schools Williams has kept in close contact with this spring. The Tigers were in recently to watch him work out and he had a conversation with Tennessee this week. "I just got off the phone with Coach Don [Mahoney]," Williams said. "It was basically what they liked about me and their school. I hear that it is a beautiful campus." -Rivals
Friday:
  • Marlon Gonzalez: "Tennessee defensive backs coach Willie Martinez was in Florida this week and saw several prospects including Marlon Gonzalez. Gonzalez seems to be very interested in Tennessee and wants to make it up to Knoxville this summer. He seems to have hit it off with Gillespie as the Vols are recruiting him very hard." -VQ
  • Quentez Johnson: "Three-star junior defensive tackle Quentez Johnson of Cedar Grove High School in Ellenwood, Ga., a former Miami commitment, named his top 13 college choices in order Thursday night and said Tennessee currently is at the top of his list. The 6-foot-3, 315-pound Johnson said the Vols are followed on his list, in order, by Miami, Oregon, Auburn, Georgia State, Mississippi State, Florida State, Georgia, Louisville, Kentucky, Alabama, Texas A&M and Wisconsin. Johnson reopened his recruitment May 6, just 10 days after he announced his initial commitment to Miami." -247
  • Darian Roseboro: "It's still a very real possibility that Darian Roseboro visits this weekend. Roseboro just visited Michigan and along with the Wolverines, some close to his recruitment believe the top group include the Vols, NC State and Auburn. Getting him back on campus would be a nice step forward for the Vols." -VQ
Saturday:
  • Darian Roseboro: "Darian Roseboro didn't make it in, instead he rescheduled his visit to the beginning of June, likely the weekend of Gruden coming to town as it sounds like numerous recruits are interested in coming that weekend." -Fortenberry
  • Marlon Gonzalez: "After originally committing to Florida State last year, Marlon Gonzalez backed off his commitment this spring and decided to open things up. Since the decommitment Gonzalez has seen numerous schools step up their recruitment of him and that includes Tennessee. "These last couple of weeks they've really been recruiting hard and they are coming after me really hard," Gonzalez said. "I talked to coach G a lot and he's a good friend of my head coach. They used to play at Florida together." Gonzalez's coach, Earnest Graham, is a former Florida running back like Gillespie and that's helped Tennessee build a solid foundational relationship with Gonzalez early on. "They talk to me a lot and they make me feel like I'm apart of the Tennessee family," Gonzalez explained. "Coach Graham has known coach G for a while and he really trusts and respects him. I'm going to always take coach Graham's advice and I've been talking to coach G lately and we've really bonded and he's lived in Florida so I feel like he's somebody that would look out for me." "I'm just trying to have fun with it. Sometimes it gets annoying but I'm grateful," Gonzalez said. "I'm just trying to take it day-by-day and I'm very grateful. My mom is going to be the biggest factor in my recruiting so I just talk to her about schools all the time. Right now we are trying to figure where we want to go and Tennessee is up there."-VQ
  • Josh Sweat: "five-star defensive end josh sweat (chesapeake, va./oscar smith) told 247sports recruiting insider evan g. Watkins this afternoon that he will visit tennessee on june 19 and georgia on june 20, unofficially. Sweat is the top-ranked weakside defensive end in the 2015 class according to 247sports composite rankings. The bulldogs, florida state, ohio state and virginia tech (the leader at 44 percent) all have predictions in their favor on 247sports crystal ball." -247
Sunday:
  • Kahlil McKenzie: "Elite defensive tackle Kahlil McKenzie (Concord, Calif./De La Salle), tells 247Sports National Recruiting Director Steve Wiltfong that he's high on Tennessee, but that Arizona is "right there with them". McKenzie's father Raleigh is the general manager of the Oakland Raiders and played football for the Vols. McKenzie told Wiltfong he will make a decision at the U.S. Army All-American Bowl in January and that he would like to learn more about Notre Dame and Ohio State in the interim. 247Sports Crystal Ball is almost all Vol for McKenzie, but the Wildcats are definite contenders." - 247

DB Recruiting:
Tuesday:
  • Vols offer Jeremy McDuffie

2016 Recruiting:
Monday:
  • GA DB Nigel Warrior: "Tennessee offering me is kind of a big deal," Warrior said. "Coach Thigpen is recruiting me and we are just starting to talk. I was very surprised they offered me this early." "We talk a lot about Tennessee," Warrior said. "We are real close. He says Tennessee is a nice place where they take care of their players and they make you feel at home. I've been up there before, but I was really young. Hopefully my dad and I are going to make it back up there during the summer." And the schools who like him are growing as NC State and Wisconsin both joined Tennessee in offering Warrior over the weekend. However, don't look for the early attention to affect him. "I'm letting my mom and my coach handle all the recruiting stuff," Warrior offered. "I'm just focusing on playing ball." -VQ

  • Vols offer GA DT Antwuan Jackson
  • Vols offer GA WR Charlie Woerner
  • TN DB JoeJuan Williams will visit on May 24th

Friday:
  • Vols offer OH OL Tommy Kraemer
Saturday:
  • Daniel Bituli: "Nashville Christian School linebacker Daniel Bituli has early offers from Tennessee, Ole Miss, Louisville and Western Kentucky early on in the 2016 prospect's recruitment but many more schools are very interested in the 6-foot-3, 220-pound defensive playmaker. "I talked to the Tennessee coaches down in Knoxville and they talked to me about the amount of potential I have and how good I can be and that motivated me to step my game up and be what they think I will be," Bituli said. "I love the coaches there and I'd love to play for an D-1 college." Along with the four offers, Bituli said he's hearing from Southern Cal, South Carolina, Auburn, Georgia, Florida, Miami, Clemson and several others. Bituli said what sets him apart from other linebackers is his fierce competitiveness. "I hate when people break tackles from me. I obviously love hitting and I love getting my guys hype and I love getting them going with me," Bituli said." -VQ
Sunday:
  • DC DE/TE Devante Brooks: Brooks said Virginia Tech and Tennessee are recruiting him hardest at the moment and he’d like to visit both programs this summer. He has tentative plans to trip to Knoxville on July 19. “I’m very excited by Tennessee,” Brooks told InsideTennessee. “That one really means a lot to me. I like the Vols.” -Scout
  • TN LB Tariqious Tisdale: "Lexington High School in Lexington, Tenn., may be home to a 2016 sleeper prospect in linebacker Tariqious Tisdale. But, that could quickly change this summer as the 6-foot-5, 241-pound defensive prospect plans to camp at Tennessee and Ole Miss. Tennessee, Ole Miss, MTSU and Tennessee State have all come to visit Tisdale this spring and he's talked to defensive coordinator John Jancek. "He told me that he wants to tell people that I'm going to be his next all-state , All-SEC player," Tisdale said of their conversation. Tisdale said he plans to be in Knoxville in early June for camp and wants to show the Vol coaches what he can do. "I want to go up there and show them I'm big and I can move," Tisdale offered. "I'm fast and I hit hard." Tisdale may not be finished growing yet at as he finishes his sophomore year. "I started out short. I grew three inches between eighth grade and freshman year," Tisdale said." -VQ
