'16 TN ATH Darel Middleton (Tennessee signee)

[drummer86]

This would be a great pickup. I love how he says "I don't care if Bama comes, I bleed orange". It seems like we are getting more players that care about what it means to be a volunteer. It will be fun to watch this player progress in the next three years.

Don't think it's been mentioned but, fellas, this would be huge. Going after a kid like this proves that Butch "gets it" IMO.

Carlos Younger just posted these highlights from Darel's Freshman year. Beast. Carlos says he's a lock for #1 player in TN in 2016.

Don't think he will be a Te by the time he gets to college. He is going to be a manchild when he is a senior.

Powell High School athlete Darel Middleton will finish his freshman year of high school this week. He will do it already knowing where he will play college football. The 6-foot-6, 230 pound tight end/defensive end has already made his college decision as he has chosen to stay home and play for his hometown Vols. VQ

BOOM!

 

[PainDocVol]

In before TW states that saban didn't want him


Boom!

 

[OldVol49vfl]

VolQuest has Darel committing today.

so... Booooooom!!

 

[Aesius]

Hell yeah!

On a side note, I can't imagine being this kid's size at 15 years old. Pretty sure I was still well under 6' and 130 lbs at the most at that age.
