|  Question: Orgeron that good?
Until this year I never really followed recruiting. What will be will be...but since we have Kiffin (squared) and Orgeron I have been taking notice. Everything I read says how good Orgeron is. Can he make a difference with a little over a month left? I hope so. |

| Like you said, there's only a month left. I doubt any serious headway is made on any guys we aren't already in on. With that said, it's got to send a message to the guys that are considering us that we mean business and are in it to win it.

| I don't think we'll see a number of players who wasn't on our radar all of a sudden jump on our bandwagon, but I think we could see possibly 1 or 2 at the most. I don't really care either way this recruiting class, but next year I think we will see more 4 and 5 star players looking at us. This 1st year is going to really give the 2010 recruits a look into what our coaching staff as to offer, IMO. | |

| Many media outlets are saying Houston Nutt should call Ed and thank him for the recruits that gave him this bowl game ('08). I haven't followed his career but they say he's a "closer" in the players living room. Couple that with the "MONTE" factor, I hope we get another Haynesworth and Henderson combo! | |

| He was the best recruiter in the nation in 2004 at a good program (USC) and was consistently a good recruiter at USC and Miami.
I don't think it'll be as easy to recruit to UT as it was at those two places, but it'll be MUCH better than at Ole Miss.
Regardless, I think he'll make a big difference in the home stretch. | |

| O has been east coast, west coast, and all over in between. He'll deliver some good recruits and he can coach a D line.

Right, but I disagree with the level of toughness of recruiting for tennessee in comparision to miami. We all know any great player wants to win a championship which southern cal has frequently proven. Tennessee will be fairly easy to recruit for because of the fresh new coaching staff (obviously), the incredible stadium, even the new locker rooms. The Knoxville atmosphere is one you can't really compare to. | |

| The man has ties on both coast's and is very well known in the south. Sounds like a winning combo to me.
