“Everything is amazing up there,” says Rankin, who has been to the Knoxville campus three times, once just passing through, once for a camp with teammate OL Adam Duckett (6-8, 330) and the third time for the Buffalo game as an unofficial guest.
“The facilities are amazing, the atmosphere is great, all the coaches are great. The city is really cool and it’s on the river … like a good ole country town. I can see myself going there and doing well.”

"They know I catch them wild hogs, too. They think that’s a little crazy.”
“We just go out in the woods and hunt the wild hogs. Right here in Orange County, over near Christmas (Fla.),” Rankin said. “We just do it for fun, but then we bring them home and butcher them up. The meat is real good and a lot of times we give the meat to homeless people and stuff like that.” | |

| Sounds like he'd fit in well with Santos and O'Brien. | |

| His Rivals video is pretty awesome. Kid is flying to the ball and knocking people out as a Sophomore. Here's a free video of him as a freshman: Ryne Rankin, LB/FB/LS - YouTube

| “Yeah, 22 tackles, but we lost,” Rankin said
That's all I needed to hear. And the hog hunting ain't to bad either.
Sign him up coach!!! I really like how Dooley is truly trying to find the VFL type. It's not just some made up kimmick, but truly what he believes deep down inside. I believe the parents that really care about their kids being in good hands can truly sense it too. That's huge!
It's a tough road boys, but soon enough we'll be lighting up our cigars. Sic'em Dooley & Co.!!! | |
