3 to 4 DT's my friend
 
I think phillips will grow into a dt. I don't think DT is as big of a need as DE. We took 6 guys this last cycle that could be dt's in Mosley, Robertson, Sawyers, Hendrix, Mixon and Barnett.

De is a much bigger need than dt imo

Take out Roseboro for Tim Settle and I think we have a winner.
 
Would you be satisfied with that class flowd?

I would be.

I would have liked to seen UT handle OLine recruiting a little bit better, but it looks like there are still a few good OL prospects out there. Missing out on Chuma hurt, but was expected. Missing out on Harrell was a big blow to OLine recruiting. All will be well if UT can land Richmond though.

I am fairly confident that UT will land a top-tier QB this cycle. It's looking like Gentry could very well be UT's QB for this class, but it wouldn't surprise me at all to see him sign with Oklahoma State or Texas. Gibson appears to have legitimate interest in UT, but I also get the feeling that his interest in twitter followers & attention is stronger. Who knows how that will shake out.

UT will bring in a stud DLine class. The staff has put itself in very good shape with that position grouping. Tuttle & Settle are two other elite DTs that are interested in UT, but I think they ultimately end elsewhere. Same with the big JUCO. Jones? The Mississippi JUCO connection will probably prove too much to overcome.

I added DeBerry to UT's class, but that is the guess I am most unsure of. I'm not too sure that UT will end up with the elite class of LBs that many think they will.

I doubt J.Woods or J.Dews sign with UT on NSD.

UT has positioned itself very well to land an elite recruiting class in 2014. It will once again be a remarkable accomplishment considering the Vols will most likely endure another tough football season.

We will see how it all goes.

Thanks. Was curious what you would say about OL since some are viewing the recent losses as an indication that our recruiting is falling off a bit.

Tuttle?

my guess is griffin and kamara dont end up as part of this class. I think O. Johnson IS part of the CLASS... maybe Olenga, Tuttle, and DeAndre Walker

Why not Griffin? Dude is a beast and the coaches took his commitment early.

I think we sign a fourth OL before a third CB. Especially after signing 3-4 CBs in the '14 class.
