| Nike Jerseys Suck! Adidias sleeves look much better. Bout the same on tightness. Material for Adidias is also better and more durable than the Nike. I'm not a Nike band wagoner. |

Recruits also like Nike and Under Armour a lot better. Plus they make better gear for us fans than Adidas. |

Recruits love uniforms like that. I'm down with tradition but the uniforms they were rocking were too fresh. Numbers on the sleeves of the body armour. But back to J.Williams I think he'll be a first round pick if he stays healthy. He's big, fast, physical, and he plays nasty. Good pickup Dooley!!! Posted via VolNation Mobile |

| Based on an article from TOS, it sounds like his visit went really well. Even though they were already sold on Tennessee, his family (mom, dad and sister) was really impressed. Williams plans to enroll in June.
Williams: "I was locked in before but now I'm sold." |
