And I'm the tool because I know what has happened and how it has happened. I guess you don't understand a couple of things. He and Drayton were close, no doubt and he did say that about Drayton, however what you fail to understand is that when he made his decision a couple of weeks ago Drayton...

I just wish you folks could understand the recruiting process and the pressure that not only schools, but the media put on these kids to say things. These kids have never dealt with the sharks that are the media and are easily coerced into say things that they shouldn't or don't really mean. I...

He NEVER had a press conference to announce UT, I can guarantee that and before you ask how I know go back and read some of my most recent posts. Heck his "announcement" as you call it came when he was up there at a football camp.

and misinformed people make it worse...two press conferences...when?

Look I never claimed to be a Vol, go back and read the last couple of pages. I went to school in that area, have a mentor as a coach that was an All American at UT, am connected to Jarvis's high school program, hell I used to work concession at Neyland, so I don't have anything against the Vols...

Get YOUR facts straight. Please explain to me in your inbred wisdom how he is an attention whore?

My facts straight? Funny because it came from the mouth of HIS father.

Please tell me what ego it is that ya'll speak of? He has never bad mouthed UT, never talked about how great he is, nothing. Is it now an ego because he didn't pick UT??? So if it's the school and not the coaches that these kids are supposed to committ to why don't they send academic...

Wouldn't say a Vols fan, but I have followed them since I played ball up in that area in the mid 90's and have a coaching mentor who was an all-american at UT.

From his father's mouth. "he really like Coach Fulmer and was close to him. When they fired Fulmer he didn't want to be a Vol." This was said to me just before is press conference.

See there's the problem, you don't have Drayton at this point, he has been guaranteed NADA by Kiffin and this played a role in his decision ( this information from a VERY respected alum that played at UT ad coached at UT ). If he was affraid of competition why would he have committed to you guys...

Yea canning a guy that literally bled orange, that went 152-52 in his career won a NC and was in the SEC title game numerous times ( just last year as a matter of fact ) and donated a MILLION DOLLARS of his OWN money to the school last year is a great choice.

Some of you people need to get a life. Four months ago you all were singing his praises, then YOUR school does the HC wrong and the kid decides because of this he doesn't want to be a Vol. Now all of a sudden the kid is a complete a$$ that wasn't any good in the first place, please get a life...

I know it was already posted, but he is over the 180 mark. He made the entire staff come in the training room and witness it. He'll be fine in the mighty SEC.

As a coach on the Gaither staff trust me when I say this kid plays bigger than 178 lbs. There's not an ounce of fat on him and he has good strength ( 500 + squat and deadlift ). The Vols are getting a heck of a kid that is truly a joy to be around. Jarvis lives for Friday nights and leaves...
