Tennessee has been talking to me a lot, Etienne told SEC Country. Id say Tennessee [is recruiting the hardest] right now.
Etienne visited Knoxville on March 3, which was Tennessees junior day.
It was a nice experience, I liked it, Etienne said. I liked the environment. Its really nice up there. They had nice coaches. I see what they are building.
And some comments on Coach Johnson...
Johnsons work ethic, connections and familiarity with the area is a big reason the Vols are having success in the area.
I think hes a great coach, Etienne said. He grew up in the same area as me. I can relate to him. Hes a nice coach.
I talk to [the staff] often. We talk about every other day.
Etienne, who said Tennessee can absolutely build a recruiting pipeline in Louisiana, does not have a set timetable to make a decision in his recruitment.
