Additionally, Northwest Mississippi JUCO DL Jaylen Thompson was in town for the Arkansas game and had a very good visit from what we are told. He will be back in town for an official visit the weekend of the Vanderbilt game as well. Thompson played high school ball in Memphis, and the appeal of returning to the Volunteer state certainly appears to be intriguing to him.

Junior College defensive lineman Jaylen Thomas will be in for an official for the Vanderbilt game. Rodney Garner has went hard on him the last month and Tennessee is standing out to the Memphis native. We will see if they can hold the momentum down the stretch.

I thought we couldn’t have official visitors for the Vandy game because of Chick McGump?

My understanding is unofficial visitors are not allowed for the Vandy game.

 

[SmyrnaATLVolisback]

Need. I think we lock him up next weekend.

Need. I think we lock him up next weekend.

And maybe get another one during the Transfer Portal in December.

Oh my bad thanks

 

[PowerT.]

I still think Tennessee is in good shape with Jaylen Thomas.

Matt Ray said Garner has really honed in on Thomas. Feels we are in a good spot with a shot to close it out on the Vandy visit.

Compared his body type and skill set to Norman-Lott who Garner also coveted and turned into a 2nd round pick.

LOVE this guy - IMO he's an instant contributor.

Good. We missed ONL this year.

Says he is 310 but CJH looks a good amount bigger.

Not sure what he weighs right now but this was from back in the spring.

He's absolutely jacked...most of that weight is muscle. He's a guy who looks ready Day 1 from a body standpoint and that's pretty rare for JUCO lineman.

This dude would immediately elevate the defense overnight. We needed a DT who commands double teams this year. That's so important for defending the zone run scheme, which basically everyone runs now.

 

[NighthawkVol]

What is his eligibility situation? Did he redshirt? 2 or 3 years left?
