Probably the U

Probably the U

Probably. I think we might be 2nd though. I know we offered him in track & field.. im not sure if others schools have yet.

Finishing 2nd for a recruit is the worst. Seems like we've been the runner-up on some great talent.

 

[Ron Swanson]

Has this kid ever visited? Doesn't say he had in this thread. 2nd or 5th, if they don't visit it doesn't matter. Just a hat on a table.

 

[SoonerVol]

Don't seem to have a chance here if he has not visited.

 

[LittleVolDaddy]

It's gonna be Miami.

 

[onefesternation]

Interesting that the PowerHour was dedicated to him tonight, since he hasn't even visited. I know his decision is coming up, but still seems kind of odd. Like most everybody else, my guess is Miami gets this commitment.

Wasted PowerHour IMO. Should have used it on a recruit actually considering being a Vol.

Agreed. Lammons would be the CB I'd like to see us get right now, so that would be a good one to use it for, IMO.

 

[Vol8188]

I'm not sure if we have room for him anyway. We have Jackson, Lammons,, Berry, Gaulden, and McDowell that we're still waiting on at DB.

I highly doubt they randomly pick players. Coaches are behind names.

Your Notre Dame connections know Miami coaches too?

He's prob right on this one, but that's not saying much. You don't need connects to see where this ones going.

Come on crook. Z is a good poster and so are you and both of you are VOLS! GBO

 

[FTCvol]

Or he's just paying attention.

 

[rocktopper16]

Gotta feeling we get this guy..

 

[Phat-Phil]

Gotta feeling we get this guy..

Why's that? I haven't heard much about him. Curious...
