I would imagine CDD and UTs offices get a huge amount of calls from random coaches, parents, and recruits about their interest in Tennessee. This kid can not sign until Feb. 2013. He had at most, 2 offers when CDD offered. It's not like NSD 2013 is a week away and CDD is not answering the phone or returning calls. Bell's "get me that offer" posse need to just calm down. Did he commit upon getting the offer? No. Alot of drama and crying for nothing IMO.

We just hired a new DC, I'm sure the old defensive assistants knew of Bell (evidence by them bringing him in for the USCjr game) & were probably going to offer soon but when they bolted & we hired Sunseri the '13 class took a back seat for a few weeks. Sunseri & Dooley had to work ther tails off to finish off the '12 class & try to hold onto a few prospects. I'm also sure Dooley didn't want to offer a defensive player w/out Sunseri watching the kids film & approving of it.

I am just going by what that guy that knew him said. He said Alabama and Georgia had offered and Bell had been trying for some time to see if Tn was even interested at all. If they invited him to the USC jr game than that tells me he knows they are interested in him. In response to the guys post before yours, yes he is a 2013 recruit, but a lot of guys get mail or some form of interest to let them know they are looking at them WELL BEFORE their junior year. It just seemed that Dooley was not being proactive enough, but that guy may have misrepresented how his recruitment was going.

LOL!! That's what I am saying. A person said he would need to visit UT to make sure it was the place for him. I guess the visit for the USCe game did not count. I have noticed alot more people coming on these boards and talking about how the local guys are getting screwed and UT gives them no love. They cry for offers and claim to know the kids personally. "He is all Vol he just needs the offer". UT offers and then the tune seems to change. "I am greatful to get the offer, I just need to lok around and consider my options". LMAO!!

I don't have a subscription either, but based on the teaser, it looks like he got an offer.

what at kinda fools are complaining about 2013 & 2014 recruits when we were down to 4 remaining coaches on staff during a crucial recruiting year. 2012 was THE one and only option after the turnover.

stop crying and just use your head.

My point.........Texas offered lifelong big Texas fan Santos a week or two before signing day. Bell wants to be a Vol and we are a day after NSD for 2012. Not too late. His entourage needs to stop bxtchin all day.
