Can someone fill us in on Rob's new article on official visitors?

It says Chris Donald will be here this weekend, but I do not know who else.

Ben Martin, Harrison Smith, Chris Walker, Chris Hill...I think we'll add on a few more to the list as the week goes on.

We'll also have some big current commitments in town to help us recruit our visitors...Brent Vinson, Darris Sawtelle, BJ Coleman, Todd Campbell, CJ Fleming (Chris Hill's teammate), Darryl Vereen and Art Evans will all be in the house.

Forgive me for asking. What is going on this weekend that they are coming for? Basketball?

With nothing left but the bowl, the atmosphere of gameday won't be on display to these recruits...but all of these visitors have been in town on unofficial visits for games before.

This weekend will give our coaches a chance to sit down with each recruit and devote meaningful one-on-one time with each of them without any distractions. It'll also give our current players and verbal commitments a chance to spend time with the undecided kids and recruit them to UT.

This may not be entirely accurate. I believe Willingham and Hill will be making their first trips to Knoxville. As mentioned earlier, Hill is a teammate of current vol commit, CJ Fleming. Willinham has named Tennessee as his leader and is likely to commit this weekend if the visit goes well.

Im happy Todd Campbell will be there because he'll be working for us from the inside.

Now there is word that this visit may turn Harrison Smith. Inside sources say that he really wants to come to UT but his dad really wants ND.

Which family though? UT or the Smith's? His parents went to UT, his friends go to UT, his g/f goes to UT.

Harrison Smiths father attended Notre Dame!!

trust me, once he gets to college the girlfriend will fall off, as a football player for the large orange he'll have hot and cold running hotties, so Im betting she wont factor much into the equation, it's the dad that's going to be a tough nut to crack

Harrison Smith had his high school coach contact UT and make sure he was scheduled for this visit. He definately has serious interest in UT. I am not assuming he is leaning to UT or anything. I am just disputing the claim many people are making that he has already made up his mind. I really think he is in a similar situation to Langley. Langley's parents really want him to go to Penn State. But, he said he had to do what was best for him. Hopefull Smith will make that same decision. Maybe Langley can get Smith's phone number, or call UT while Smith is on his visit, and he can talk to him about making the decision for himself and not for his parents.

[rexvol]

right on, he's the one that has to walk the halls for four years, not daddy.

Why is Willingham ranked so low by Rivals?
