In his spring highlights he gets off his blocks well.

Hard to know about Juco's. Some fly waaay under radar. Curious if this kid blows up.

If the rumors of a commitment are true i wonder if he could walk-on to the basketball team. averaged 7p 7r his senior year.

Keep the Juco linebackers coming

Well, I can see what trends Butch is slowing. He wants good sized bodies.

Header on his twitter says UT commit

I saw that. Maybe Butch is going to get him enrolled this fall? Not sure. Fortenberry is trying to find out the details.

Just caught up with Weatherd. He's at Trinity Valley CC and has been in touch with John Jancek since Jancek was at Cincinnati. Weatherd said the Vols have offered, along with several other schools, and he says he wants to commit to Tennessee and Jancek when he meets him in person.

He's not sure when that meeting will take place. So, I wouldn't call him commitment as it seems Tennessee wants to meet with him in person before they do anything, but after talking to him he's very high on the Vols.

He played linebacker last year at Trinity Valley and moved to defensive end this spring. The Vols like him at linebacker.

I'm asking around to see where he's at on the Vols' board. I'll see what else I can find out.

If its the same guy he is from Carrollton, TX and went to Creekview HS

If we're not accepting his commitment until we meet in person, I doubt he's a 2013 guy.

Although I'd love it if he were.

Possible that his hudl is listing his class coming out of high school?

Hope he can play I'm usually skeptical of a juco LB. They rarely turn out to be impact guys.

It says Tennessee along with other schools have offered, but I don't see what other schools have offered based off yahoo link. Does anyone else know what other schools offered?

Thanks :hi:

Judging by his Hudl film, which consists of about 4 plays, he looks athletic and wraps up well. Good pursuit to the football. He would be a nice addition to the squad in my opinion. Does he have 3 years to play 3?

 

[cbbowlingmd]

Says he Committed - already. Boom?

You don't want to know.

 

[Ron Swanson]

Says he Committed - already. Boom?

"He's not an official commitment. Jancek is going out there this week to check on him and make sure his academics are in order and they want to see him in person before they officially give him a commitable offer.

We talked to him earlier and he told us he wants to commit when Jancek comes out there. We'll obviously be following this throughout the week."
