Austin Pope, the Christian Academy of Knoxville TE/LB had a really good day today at NPA camp as a slot receiver (he's 6-4, 220 and can move. He'll camp at Tennessee in June and is excited about that. Jancek came by his school last week to see practice and he's talked to Butch Jones over the phone and it sounds like there's a chance Tennessee gets involved there.
They may not be the only ones as Southern Cal, Missouri and several others have turned up the interest here recently.
Not much more new out of the even than that, but some guys really had good days like Pope.
He's had a lot of interest from several schools since the Nebraska offer and today he showed why he's deserving. He's a big target that knows how to use his body and he can catch the ball really well away from his body and knows how to high-point the ball. Because he's more of a slot receiver I'm not sure he can block but I think he's athletic enough to play at a Big 5 conference school so I'll be really interested to see what happens with him and if Tennessee finds a spot for him in this class.
I think if this was last year or the year before and Tennessee is taking 30+, then he's a take no doubt.
-Might I add to this that the match up between him and Tyrel Dodson was a one to see.
