Back on the Dalton Santos topic, word is now that although he loved Tennessee and the SEC, the distance from Texas is making it a tough decision. Word is now he is leaning more towards A&M but you never know until he comes out and says it himself.

I really think he's an Aggie as well with distance being the deciding factor. But if I bad to pick a big 12 team it would be you guys. Have always respected A'M and if not a Vol I hope he does well there and you guts beat Texas and Oklahoma every year and win the conference.

Rumor... thanks. Is there a basis to the rumor or is it a random poster who is stating the obvious distance factor?

The person who posted it is a poster who doesnt make up stuff to troll and is very close to the situation
 
the Homie:

A&M's guys think Santos is theirs...
they believe early playing time plus a couple of East Texas buddies and Matt Davis pulling him their way and proximity to home win out.

Wouldn't surprise at all if he's a Vol though... He's had a thing for the SEC and he's probably a two-down LB in the Big XII. Dude wants to come downhill and take heads off.

We believe ya, no worries..we have guys here who spotted Gunner Kiel at Jasons Deli sharing a tuna melt with Obama. Insider info is always great to hear. :popcorn:
 
"Coaches tell me that they like my aggressive nature," Santos said. "I've always been that way. I've had good instincts. I've been catching the football ever since I could walk. To me it's not about what's going on around me. It's my love and passion for the game. I live to knock the piss out of someone and de-cleat them. I love to look up in the stands and see 100,000 going crazy. It's what I live for. It's what I've always done. I'm never going to give up. I'm relentless. It's do-or-die time every play."

Want this kid in Orange and White
 
His new article on VQ makes it sound like TN is still in it.

Proximity and Nguyen seem to be the positive for TAMU

Early PT, SEC, and Sirmon seem to be the positive for UT... Said trip to UT was more than he expected.
 
Please get this guy in orange. His style of play is something we really need.

The part about his family willing to relocate seems like good news for us.

Still seems up in the air.
 
"Both schools have everything I want," Santos said. "It just comes down to my level of comfort. I have to be comfortable and you don't want to wake up and not be happy for the next four years. If I were to get hurt and missed a year then I've got to be comfortable and be happy with where I am and the people I'm around. That's the biggest deal to me. My family is going to back me up 110 percent. They don't care where I go and I'm grateful for that."

on early pt...

"That helps Tennessee," Santos said. "It's big. I've never sat out in anything and I'm not going to start now. I wouldn't dedicate myself to the game if I didn't want to play. It's about opportunity and relationships. Coach Sirmon is exactly right. There is not too many people like coach Sirmon and coach Nguyen. I think if I can get in there and get the terminology mentally, then I'm going to be good to go from day one."
