'15 TN DE Kyle Phillips (UT commit 1/3/15)

[Face]

As said already they have 7 highly ranked 4*(5.9/6.0) recruits and we only have 4. Our class is pretty awesome and our DL class is probably one of the best in the country.

We're bringing in ballets for sure.

You have to remember wth Clemson, as it is with UGA, no matter how high they recruit they're always going to drop a couple games they shouldn't. Sucks Clemson is pulling some Carolina guys, but I'm not worried about them getting much of a toehold.

 

[NotoriousRPP]

What did that do for his overall ranking?

84. 4th highest player on our board.

Looks like ESPN got the memo about Kyle being a DE. Reranked him today to the #9 DE.

Honest question why does ESPN even bother to do recruiting ranking? They can't be making much money off it, nobody uses it.

My guess is so when they air events like "The Opening" they can use their own rankings rather than advertise others.

They make money off of it. They air a few HS games and all star games. Theres also a recruiting show that they have. They get paid when people tune in, not just subs.

 

[jpiburn]

Yeah y'all are probably right. Just keep it in house for all the TV stuff.

It doesn't make a damn where they are ranked, I will rank them when they perform, Look where Barnett was ranked.

I don't know if CBJ wants a team for of these but I know what you're talking about.

I believe Barnett was top 100, maybe top 50. Hell, top 200 isn't bad so there's nothing to be ashamed about really.

He called butch last night and told him he is 100% a VFL according to my sources and they are in the know I promise.

How did u find out who my source is

 

[Nationdom]

Dumb rating system then IMO. :crazy:

It's the best system out there

 

[LaagerVol]

After watching his all-star game this dude is a 5* if I've ever seen one. Dominant every play he was in the game.

 

[Phat-Phil]

I don't think he'd have to call him at this point...

 

[LouderVol]

"Kyle Phillips has undergone tests on his shoulder since arriving on campus earlier this month ... Phillips is likely to have shoulder surgery in the near future and also will be limited from full participation in spring camp."

-Hubbs

Him and Barnett will likely miss out on most of spring practice.
