For the sake of argument let's say he took money from ole miss who would turn him in with enough proof for it to amount to anything? I'm sure ole miss is not dumb enough to cut off their nose to spite their face

I've heard from a current player on the team that he gets the same vibes from Preston as well. Comparing him to Malone. Coach Z is a very demanding coach and a "diva" or "soft" player gets exposed when they're surrounded by similar talent and a demanding coach.

I'm not saying he's a diva, I'm just saying there's others that know him that get that vibe.

Why cant you spill the beans on what other players have told you? You do a drive by and beat around the bush about a lot of things you say. Its all here say until you say what the kid has done or you know nothing and pretend you do. That's the bottom line. YOUR MOVE!!!

It was pretty obvious after the Adoree Jackson charade he pulled that he doesn't have any inside knowledge.

Umm, no.... That was one time he was proven correct. By VQ and others the day after he said the same exact thing.

On three occasions I've went out of my way to post something about a recruit.

1. info on Adoree which was from a guy who went on the recruiting visit with the coaches.

2. An epic troll job by Barnett when I walked past him heading to a friends in Crown apartments and I asked how was enjoying his visit to which he answered "I like Vandy better."

3. Preston Williams, because the guy who went on the coaches to see Adoree also helped place Prestons ex gf in the track program, and was recruitimg him to run track here also.

I'm not sure how me posting those things qualifies me as an insider, I never asked for that title. I'm a guy who loves the Vols who isn't afraid to pass along info.

Edit: and as far as Richmonds shady business I'm not naming names and wont repeat specifics but it was in lieu of him trying to get in recruits ears about Ole Miss. There are plenty of things that have said that I don't know about involving his recruitment, but I have heard about the shadyness. That's all.

Sooo I'm guessing #4 would be this thread? Saying he's shady is very generic and falls in line with people saying he sent inappropriate texts and was recruiting players to Ole Miss while on his visits. But you added to it saying you had talked to sources, and come away with a conclusion that he's shady and you don't want him here. There's no credibility there considering there's not really a realistic chance he comes here and I think you know that. You're spewing bs for likes if you ask me. If Richmond does by some miracle flip to us you will be 0-2 with him and Adoree. And if I'm not mistaken you also said Joe Henderson would be back on the team.

Wow, I'm flattered that you keep such close tabs on me. So a handful of posts and I've been here since 09.

And through the process I've learned that not only coaches opinion on situations can be wrong, but also information from players can be too. I am simply repeating things that I head, I could give a ____ less about likes man. I've been here for quite some time And stay because I enjoy this forum, sans posters like yourself who follow me around keeping tabs on each and every post.

Get a life or get a hobby bro.

Per P Fort

Finally, some have asked if anything is going on with 5-star Memphis offensive tackle Drew Richmond and from what we've gathered Tennessee has had several conversation with Richmond over the last few days and we believe they have been productive.

But, as of Sunday night we don't believe any visit has been scheduled. Right now, he's scheduled to see Texas this upcoming weekend and Ole Miss the last weekend before signing day. We will be monitoring the situation throughout the week to see if anything changes.

You mean northeast Tennessee, one of the best places on the planet. Need a road trip go try to find a little place called the Laurel Bloomery. It's on hwy 91 north of Mountain City.

A beautiful area. However I was driving through there one spring around 20 years ago and saw the aftermath of a horrible traffic accident. I was second on the scene before the rescue squad/ambulance. Large straight truck had a head-on on one of the curves with a 18 wheeler. Very sad.

I live in Hunter right next to Stoney Creek. I can walk out on my back patio and have a fantastic view of the mountains. Great place to live.

I don't understand why people would bash Preston Williams or Drew Richmond before there's anything public that they've done. Peyton Manning had a mooning incident during his time here and he's regarded as classy, respectable, etc. They're 17 or 18 years old, don't judge their character when we don't have anything conclusive.

Please stop with the logic.

If you hold your pinkies up while dropping your shorts it's ok.

Who to trust?

A) The coaches who make a living evaluating talent and how a player will fit into their team.

or

B) An anonymous poster who apparently hasn't even met the young men and is basing his statements off of hearsay.

Not to be an ass, but I'm gonna go with A. PW is already committed to be a Vol, so I have to assume the coaches know about any attitude he has and they're not overly concerned. As far as DR, he's not committed. If the coaches question his attitude and work ethic, they may not accept a commitment, but should they accept his commitment, then I'm gonna stick with the notion they know what they're doing. Could they be wrong? Hey, every coach has misses, so it's not beyond the realm of possibility. I'm still going to put more faith in their evaluation though since this is their job.

I just get this weird Gabe Wright vibe from this dude. I wonder if he is just trolling at this point?

Who knows? I don't really care one way or the other. Like I said kid is a remarkable talent so if we get him great, if not who gives a crap at this point. If Allen commits I say tell him to go pound sand, personally.
