Per Hubbs:

On the wide receiver front, Tennessee continues to look at junior college prospects and a name that's quickly rising up the board for the Vols is Dodge City receiver Jeff George. The 6-foot-6, 190-pound was offered by Tennessee Thursday night and he's someone who's stock could really blow up this spring when coaches get out on the road. Credit Tennessee's recruiting department for finding George early as the only other team to offer thus far is Arkansas State.

Tennessee will likely take at least one junior college receiver in the class of 2016 and he may be a name to really pay attention to as he's the only junior college receiver with an official offer at this point.

Has to be Jeff George Jr. The resemblance is uncanny

Crazy we are only his second offer. Kid is a future star. Runs great routes, physical, uses his body well to gain leverage(how Croom should do) and good hands. Perfect possession receiver.

Yep...his film looks really good. I ran across his hudl a few days ago and was impressed. I'm sure he'll be one who blows up soon.

Such an unfortunate name for a football player. Guess it could be worse if his name was Ryan Leaf.

Jeff George had a really good career.

Jeff George had a really good career.

Long career. I think "good" is an overstatement.

 

[Vol8188]

Long career. I think "good" is an overstatement.

Multiple 3700+ yard seasons. Not many QB'S can say that. He had a really good career.

 

[vtvol98]

I think he's a good gamble.

Are we talking Jeff George or Art Schlichter now?

hope this kid doesn't have the attitude the overrated qb has

I know what you are saying but hes also about 40lbs lighter than Croom.

Needs some of Butch's peanut butter.

...or Dick Butkis.

Saw thread title (name) and envisioned 5.2 in the 40! I bet Dooley was in on this kid as a DB in 8th grade, just on name alone.

 

[Nashvegas31]

Dooley would have called the former NFL player Jeff George by accident

 

[Jax_Vol]

Has a cannon of an arm

Has a cannon of an arm

Million dollar arm, 10 cent head.

 

[TMatthews19]

I knew we would likely go juco for a WR this year. I really wish we could have snuck Camion Patrick in last class or this class.

 

[rekinhavoc]

Million dollar arm, 10 cent head.

C'mon the mullet was easily worth a buck.

 

[WebbCobb]

Million dollar arm, 10 cent head.

I could watch that million dollar arm throw mile-long passes that never seemed to lose altitude all day long

 

[Biopsyman]

Such an unfortunate name for a football player. Guess it could be worse if his name was Ryan Leaf.

Or Aaron Hendandez

the redshirt sophomore wide receiver from dodge city (kan.) community college said he picked up his first major-conference offer from tennessee on thursday night during a phone conversation with coach butch jones, and he said he “definitely” has “high interest” in the vols.

“they just like how i move with the ball after i catch it, and they like my height a lot. They just kept saying they were really excited about me and they wanted to offer me,” said george, who later added that he recently was timed at 4.44 seconds in the 40-yard dash.

“(azzanni) told me about how they’re losing three seniors after this upcoming season, and he just told me that he needs me to get on the field as soon as possible. When i get there, no sitting out. He wants me to come in and play.”

“i’m going to keep them in mind, for sure,” george said. “even after all the rest of the schools come — if they come — i’ll remember that they were the first big one. They did their research first. It just shows how much they really wanted me before anybody else.”
