"Camp went great. Me and my guys, guys from Florida, showed what Florida talent does and everybody played really hard. I actually felt pretty good. I locked them down in one-on-ones, I didn't allow any completions. It felt pretty good," Diggs added

Diggs said that Tennessee's facilities really stood out and to plan on seeing him again in Knoxville.

"The facilities are beautiful. My first time going into Neyland Stadium, it was crazy. Taking a bunch of pictures and guys were screaming and stuff like that, so it was fun," he said. "I'll definitely visit again, I'll definitely come up here and visit again. I don't have any leaders right now, but I'll definitely come up here and visit again. Official or unofficial, I just definitely want to come up on a game day."

The article goes on to say that he had a great talk with CDD about VFL but loves CDH.

Wasn't Condredge the first black QB in the SEC as well? If so, another Tennessee first.
Funny how some people are stuck with 1965 mentality here. UT broke the color barrier by playing Lester McLain in the late 60's and we WILL hire coaches based on merit not skin color. Wade Houston was hired because he had a talented son and was AA. Obviously, the lack of experience as a head coach or discipline was not considered and hurt our basketball program for years.

I wanted Kippy when Kiffin left and really thought he got the shaft here, but looking back on it now I see he did not have the qualities that Dooley has. Kippy would have top recruiting classes but I am not sure he would have had as much credability with the administrative side of the job. I would take Strong in a heartbeat.

:no: you're not understanding the problem. its not theat they arent capable, its that it WONT happen.

Boosters admins and such arent going to clear the way for it.

Football is a completely different monster than Basketball.

the old guard is in full control.

Didnt think I had to explain that esp. since there are 13 in the entire Nation

Remember Bama hiring Mike Shula over Croom? It is what it is. I would've loved having Strong here at UT. Hell Kippy Brown would've been a good coach.

With the 25 scholly limit ,sign and place will no longer be in vogue in SEC.

You never really know how much that is said about a kids grades is accurate and how much is just other schools spitting sour grapes. I figure if our staff continues to recruit this kid and he visits again as he has asked to...then apparently our staff feels they could get him qualified. Just have to see how it all plays out.

a kid doesn't change HS 3 times unless they move or it's an "issue" somewhere. Enough so that none of the Big 3 have offered.

I heard a rumor that CDD used his lawyer background and his investigative skills to learn that this kid is in the witness protection program and is being moved all the time for his own protection. As soon as he testifies as to where Jimmy Hoffa's body is hidden....he will be cleared by the NCCA and commit to Tennessee. I guess the big 3 should have done their homework on this one!!!

cape coral (fla.) island coast defensive back jordan diggs is wide open and hoping to narrow down his list to 10 or so soon. He recently visited michigan state, where his brother played, for four days and also visited tennessee, vanderbilt, ole miss and georgia tech recently. tennessee seemed to stand out as far as facilities but he is wide open. Nebraska could get a visit next week.

Definitely one we can sneak into it with, and maybe pull towards the end.

May be a good idea to wait until late to see if he could be admitted. He has been to 3 high schools and alot of people think he will have trouble when it's time to enroll. If UT pushes to get him....CDD must think they can get him in.

Only under (extremely) rare circumstances. Definitely not a good thing---NCAA "Red" flag to be sure. Unless CDD is aware of info/facts that the GP is not, Tennessee passes. IMO.
