By Y Porter. Tennessee has recently offered joining Auburn, Mississippi State, Ole Miss, South Carolina, Stanford and Mashall. He has no leaders and is just enjoying the process.

Quote:

"I am going to one more camp at Ole Miss," Shackelford said. "That will be it for the summer. I went to ones at Mississippi State, Auburn and Tennessee and I visited Vanderbilt and UAB. I visited Ole Miss last year and was not impressed at all with it. I went back though once coach Nutt took over and it was a lot different."

Quote:

"I can't say that I have narrowed it down to a top five or anything like that just yet," Shackelford said. "I would say that Auburn, Mississippi State and Tennessee do stand out some. I want to go to Ole Miss this weekend and see how I feel about it. I started liking them a lot more after my last visit up there.'

Decatur AL has produced a lot of great talent.

Decatur (Ala.) Austin inside linebacker D.T. Shackelford could be close to his decision. His coach said that the three-star will likely make his decision this weekend and he said that the two schools that he thinks are on top are Tennessee and Mississippi State.

Is that really Stanford, or is it Samford? Considering my last IQ test I do not think that Stanford belongs on that list.

hahaha Wow, I hope it's Samford, that's where I go to school! Of course, it is stuck in the heart of Bama but it will still be great to see that kind of talent there... a man can dream...

I live about 15 min from his and anthony orr's high schools. My high school plays both decatur and sparkman this year.

according to Scout.com he's a verbal to UT.

Is that an error?

Smokey1 · 08-01-2008, 10:47 AM

I saw that too, stj. Everyone for sure thought he was going to MSU.

Midfielder10 · 08-01-2008, 11:09 AM

wwilso29 · 08-01-2008, 12:04 PM

I completely misread the title and thought he was a defensive tackle

Tennessee Golfer · 10-17-2008, 06:33 PM

He plays against my high school tonight at our homecoming. Ill let yall know how he does.

Tennessee Golfer · 10-18-2008, 12:05 AM

D.T. had about eight tackles, one for a loss, and a pass deflection. He wasnt overly dominate but I was impressed to see that when he got his hands on the ball carrier he went down. He lined up as DE a couple of times and straight ran through our 6'6" 300lb tackle. He played with a lot of fire but Bob Jones beat Austin 24-6!
