I now think we have a very real shot at Adoree.

No doubt about it. I think Butch is going to sign Adoree.

Elite players want to play with other elite players. It happened last year with Auburn at the end, they closed with a bunch of elite guys. Butch is about to do that, IMO.

And I don't give a damn how young they will be, this offense will be spectacular at times next season. Not consistently, but they'll show strong flashes.
 
If they get him back on campus, I think we have a decent shot.

I think we're up there on his list and now CBJ can focus on him.

He's been to campus more than once. IMO getting him back isn't a big sign for our chances if he doesn't come back. This is a snowball rolling down hill. He very well may get on board IMO

I like your guys' confidence. I need to keep telling myself this is no longer Derek Dooley running the show. I came to expect nothing but disappointments in recruiting and on the field with that guy.
 
I do wonder how Josh Dobbs feels about this situation? "Hey, we got an elite WR for you to throw to but to get him, we had to show him an hour and a half of film of a QB that wasn't you and convince him that THAT is who would be throwing to him."

Having these wide receivers in the fold will be VERY enticing for a 2015 Top-tier QB. Today was a big win in a lot of ways. GO VOLS!!!!

+1. An Elite '15 QB has to love the situation developing at Tennessee. No QB signed this year, a 5-star WR in Malone now in the fold, a likely 5-star next year in Williams in the fold. It's an unbelievably great looking situation for any top flight QB prospect out there.

This is the beauty of the situation though. Every time I feel like Im going to be disappointed Butch proves we were worrying for nothing. I worried about TK, Hurd, and Malone and we landed all three. I really hope Dooley goes to florida so we can beat him into the ground for what he did to our program.

Hopefully that he needs to improve, and quickly, if he wants to remain the starting QB.
 
It is most unfortunate in one sense, but Butch now has the luxury of focusing exclusively on closing out this recruiting class in a big way, as opposed to preparing his team for a bowl game. Yes, I would prefer a postseason berth too, but there is a silver lining in this.

Adoree's already been on campus, twice. Once on an OV and and UOV. And all reports are that his family was really impressed with Butch and UT and they like the proximity to their home in Illinois. He may not sign with UT but I know one thing, he's interested and Butch isn't going to stop recruiting him. Full court press coming. I like our chances with Butch running the show.

Exactly my thoughts!

One reason in a perfect world things said in the living room need to stay there. As public as recruiting is now it certainly might rub some current players the wrong way.

Exactly why I'm not worried about a QB this class. Surely to god we will land an elite QB next year with all of these weapons.
