'19 TN ILB Christopher Russell (Texas A&M signee)

This is a weird thread.
Has been since the beginning. Actually, ForkedDeerVol started talking about Russell in another thread; he was the very first one to start talking about the kid. All these other "Dyersburg" people then showed up, and it took a wrong turn, quick. All of them claimed to have info on Russell, and then that led to one them actually having an inside man, who, from the sound of it, has been sitting right next to Pruitt all week, and letting us know all the going's-on inside the "war room".

His feelings didn’t get hurt. He decommitted from Memphis after Pruitt contacted him. Auburn followed UT. Auburn has been following us on our offers. Auburn has been the scapegoat of UT this year. When we offer, they offer. Geeeze! I can tell you that he is ready to sigh with us.
 
He went to a Memphis camp and showed out. Memphis and GT offered. He then went to UT and had an awesome camp. Ran a 4.46. He came home without an offer and I think his feelings were hurt. He committed to Memphis the day he got home. He did not hear from UT again until after Auburn offered and he decommited from Memphis. UT can get him but they have some catching up to do. In my opinion it is good that he is not signing until February.
What is it with TN and our instate kids? My word! Get over it, be grateful your home state school offered you a scholarship to represent your state, take advantage of it, and sign on the dotted line to be a Vol! Quit having your feelings hurt! It’s about time our instate prospects jump in, no matter how late in the process we offer, like many other home state schools’ recruits do.

Negative ghost rider. You just proved you know nothing.
 
I am from the Burg as well. I will roll with Forkdeer Vol. I've been hearing the same he has. Feelings are hurt a little, but the major factor is the girlfriend.

Forget the girlfriend! Probably 90%+ likely that she won’t be the one you end up marrying. Represent your home state school with pride and help restore it to relevance.
 
I get my info from the man himself. He is at my house at least once a week. Not gonna put everything I know on a message board. I hope he ends up at Tennessee but orange defense is incorrect.

This is not a quote Tennessee football insider. This is someone who appears is close to the family and is reporting what he sees. Anyone can know a player or family member from time to time. Thank you for sharing your perspective sir.

You know I love the Vols but I understand being wanted immediately and being a backup.

I don't think it means what you think it means.

UT offered 6 days AFTER Auburn.
 
Forked deer, I’m not going to argue with you, but I see his family a lot, and I can tell you that they’re vol fans including him. I don’t know if he comes to your house or not, but I’ve known the family for years. Heck, I’ve even sit with the family watching vol football on Saturday’s. He is a vol fan, he talks about Tennessee a lot when I’m around him. He wants to be here. I don’t know the info you have. I also know that he has to visit other places, because of the fill up gap of signees, but I also know he is going to be a vol if all possible when he visits. The family is going through a rough time right now. That is the reason for the delay.

You need to STOP right here. Don't know if you're who you represent yourself as and frankly don't care. Whatever, whoever you are keep this kid's family business off this board..
 
I dont think saying the family are Vol fans and they watch football games together is personal. Chill out man. Did u go to a cry room when Trump was elected? Lol

I guess you missed the point in the very last line I bolded. That's not sitting on the couch, watching the game on a Saturday. That's crossing into the realm of none of this boards business and info the poster shouldn't be sharing here. If you're good with that, so be it....
