It's wild. He went out for WR on the freshman team. Coach asked if anyone wanted to try to kick. He was the only one. He's a natural. Has hit from 45+ in practice as a Freshman. Wilhoit changed (established) his mechanics. Has worked his butt off this year. Wilhoit asked him what his main goal was. He said I want to be the one to beat Alabama. Tears rolled up my eyes.
I've said it before, but it bears repeating...
The rapid development of high school players in Tennessee creates a whole new ballgame for the Tennessee program. Traditionally, we have had to get most of our top players in neighboring states, and across the country. That wasn't too bad when we were sitting on top, and the SEC only had 2-3 strong teams. In this current college football climate, it would be impossible for us to rise to the top again "cherry picking". With 5* talent being developed within the state annually, we can begin to build on the foundation of Tennessee kids, and that has long term sustaining power.
The future is bright.

We're just seeing the beginning of it too imo. They are projecting Metro Nashville at possibly having 2.5 million by the next census. And I've not seen that they've capped the projected growth at that. All those counties surround Nashville are getting silly.
