Word was the kid was willing to wait till after NSD to announce so he could get to OV to Bama. Prince commits IMO cause Satan wasn't gonna wait on Drew. DR is able to quickly able to schedule the Bama visit and Prince is told to walk as he was taking visits. Call me skeptical, but it would not shock me at all DR commits to Bama and never even makes it to UT for the visit. Jmo

Can't disagree with any of this and wouldn't be surprised if he verbals to Nicky very soon. How we doin with Pat Allen again?
 
This is good in some ways and bad in others.

Good:
-More proof that Drew is truly undecided and considering leaving Ole Miss
- We still get the last impression
- Many visits go into Monday so he may stay two nights in TN

Bad:
-1 more team in the mix
-two visits may cloud our ability to make our impression
-Bama is obviously a tough competitor

I think we still have a shot.

Another bad is a suit has been ordered for him and may get to car shop while down there.
 
Is it better that we at least have the last visit? Does that help? Can't stand Bama! Their fans are everywhere! Yuck!!

Usually yes. Lets see if he actually makes it. Satan cut Prince loose for visiting OSU after committing. I have no doubt Satan will want a commitment from Drew before he leaves. Do I think he gets that commitment then is cool with Drew tripping to Knoxville? I'm not seeing it.
 
Someone posted these cliff notes from Brent Hubbs' interview on 104.5 in the FF, thought it needed to head over here:


- Butch hasn't announced OC hire because he's focused on finishing this recruiting class with less than a week til signing day

-Butch just got back from Memphis where he personally visited Ole Miss commit 5* OT Drew Richmond

-Visit went very well and ended with an agreement that Drew and his family will visit Knoxville this weekend, giving us the chance to make last impression

-Says Ole Miss media and fans are nervous because he previously refused to visit any other schools and now he's headed our way.

-Thinks he might flip but odds are in Ole Miss's favor still BUT we had NO chance before visit.

-Said Butch privately turned away "a handful" of 4* guys, indicating more cuts will be made from current commit list and that he likely has at least 2 planned for NSD

Lastly, he said TN COULD end up with #1 class if Richmond flips and we pick up one other 4-5*

As long as nobody flips from our current commits, we will 100% land a top-5 class, becoming the first time in school history with back-to-back top 5 classes. (Including Fulmer era)

All good news! That last fact surprised me. Butch has recruited better than ANY UT coach before him!

Hard to believe, but all I can say is I believe!

If I had to guess... The 2 on NSD would be Pat Allen and Camion Patrick
 
Would love to have Richmond, but if he chooses to play against us, we have the artillery to punish him! Go Vols!
 
Lock up this kid and shut the whole recruiting operation down for 2015. We will have the perfect class for our needs!

Go get him Butch!!!
 
We should NEVER be out recruited by Ole Miss for any top prospect in the state. I know it's close to Memphis, but we ARE TENNESSEE!
 
As long as we get the last visit, which we do, I don't give a rat's arse how long he stays in Bama. Last impression is HUGE, IMWO. :thumbsup:
