Thanks. I knew he de-committed from WMU right after committing which was weird. I'll wait until it's official for Winn at UTM before listing it that way. I'm still adding recruits so I'm not finished yet either. Thanks again.

No problem. Obviously nothing is set in stone yet but I just feel like he'll end up at UTM.

I thought the commit to Western Michigan seemed odd other than the fact they were one of, if not the, biggest offers that he had. I heard he got up there and they had about 2 feet of snow. He hated it but his dad wanted him to commit so he did. Once he got back to west TN he realized he didn't want to go to school up north so he decommitted.

Not trying to spread rumors or put words in the kid's mouth but I think most people around here (west TN) thought that the commitment was odd.

I didn't think it was weird going to WMU at first. They are a successful program now & are getting some better talent. What was weird about his commitment there was definitely location like you said.

He could stay down here in Tennessee & play at a school much closer & in the state more than likely.

UTM is probably a solid type school for him but he's even slightly better than a program like that to be honest. A school like Tenn Tech or MTSU would fit him even better. Thanks!

Always hate to see local kids close to Knoxville go somewhere else.

Yeah, me too but some of the lesser talented kids pretty much have to in order to find a school to take them or a school they can get playing time at. I was surprised at the number of kids that committed to Navy in the lists I provided.

Actually, it was states scattered all over the USA but several have chosen Navy & one even is going to Yale so we know he's a very smart kid. I've got a few more to add to 2017 in that lists. Thanks!

A number of aspiring engineers in that 2017 bunch...

Oh! If I had a daughter, sir, I'd dress her in White and Gold,
And put her on the campus to cheer the brave and bold...

Updated the 2017 signings.

Tech has two really good fight songs. Too bad UGA does not have one. That is the difference between an Institute of Technology and a high school.

1st post has been updated.

 

[tonybologna]

Updated Coltton Wright(2017) signing with Carson Newman & Cole Mabry(2018) committing to Notre Dame.

The state of TN has been a nice pipeline for Navy the past several years. Keenan Reynolds and Jabaree Tuani ended up being two of the best. Thanks for posting this. Always good to see where the TN kids go.

I agree with you on this about the Navy & Tennessee kids. We(state of Tennessee) still have quite a few recruits that still have not committed yet. I guess they will by the summer. Thanks.
