I'm kind of surprised here, he was really big on UT. Wonder if something has changed in his recruitment, maybe possible position questions, or he wants something else. I was thinking he wanted to be on O, and we like him at Wr.

Maybe he just wanted a UGA offer or they offered him more money since we actually built a full size practice facility

UGA will always be the "home town pick" because of his proximity Athens. It's literally 30 mins away. I think at the beginning he was probably down playing his interest in GA so that he could get an offer.

Its not over yet. I say let him commit to the pups and they will have to figure out how to keep CBJ at bay for 6 months, good luck with that!

If the doggies could just go 8-4 this year so he would see they don't have as much bite in them as he thinks.

Record doesnt matter. If we beat them it wont matter.

Richt has been underachieving from day 1 and he still recruits like a champ. They could only win 4 games and he will still pull in a top 5 class.

That's where Tennessee differs from FL and UGA. They are going to get big time players every single year barring a HC change. They are LOADED with instate kids. We are not that lucky.

This is a fallacy. The state of Tennessee is producing a lot of very good BCS level players. The explosion of the midstate population has really helped.

You combine that population increase with an influx of former D1 players getting into coaching on the HS level, the Titans, D1 training center, NPA's work and you have a recipe for a significant increase in talent in the Nashville Metro area.

The 2017 class could end up with 15+ players in the top 300 in the country. 2018 is shaping up to be a very strong year as well.

With the departure of Coach Larry Knight to GSU this really hurts the recruitment of Hardman, Coach Knight was very close with him and his family

You sure have been the bearer of a lot of bad news with this recruitment lately. :(

Who liked this?

This recruitment will change for the good guys, when we stomp Georgia in Neyland, and Richt "retires".

It's great the talent in the midstate has improved, but it's nowhere near Ga or Fl.

We should take groves and replace with hardman if we get the chance. I reserve all judgement on hardmans recruitment until after the Georgia game, which as usual has the chance to be the biggest recruiting weekend of the year for us. We'll see.

If a recruit determines were he will spend his next 4 years on the outcome of 1 game...we will probably be better off without him....:hi:

Recruits won't do that , people keep thinking the winner determines where the Ga swing recruits go. As long as UT has a good season, it doesn't matter. A 7-5 UT team with a win over a 9-3 UGA wont change anything either. Getting in that upper echelon and battling for the East is all Ut needs, not a win against UGA

I honestly believe that there are recruits that want to lean towards Tennessee, but can't embrace the "moral victory" pitch any longer. Gotta start WINNING these games.
