He left campus a bit ago and Mathis was really impressed with Tennessee. He liked the practice and getting to hang with the coaches and really liked coach Sal.
Tennessee hasn't offered and is waiting to see his film after this season because of his ACL tear last season. Tennessee will continue to remain in contact with him. He will be able to go 100 percent in his team's fourth game of the season. We'll have the full story later.

"It was a real, 'Wow,' for me because it was a big campus and it was the first time I had ever been there," Mathis said of his trip to Knoxville. "Their practice was really good and I met coach Sal (Sunseri) and he's a pretty good coach and has NFL experience and he knows how to train guys that have the dream of going to the NFL and he would help them. I would be glad to play there."
"It seems like he wants perfection from everybody because he worked under coach Nick Saban at Alabama and I respect that and he wants the best out of you and he wants you to be the best," Mathis said. "He wants a major tempo, he wants everybody energetic and everybody flowing and nobody is lollygagging around and stuff."
"He (Dooley) said that he was glad I came and that he hoped I liked the visit and they were going to keep in touch with me and they would want to see my tape and figure out the decision on me," Mathis said.
