Okay, so everyone is so worried over Scroggins. I will admit that if we get Scroggins it might help us in offensive recruiting. However, I went back and looked at last years final 25 according to one site, and looked up their starting QB's and the backups out of high school, according to Rivals.

Backup in Parentheses, could not find Kellen or Jevon Snead
1. Florida – Tim Tebow – 5 stars (John Brantley – 4 stars)
2. USC – Mark Sanchez – 5 stars (Aaron Corp – 4 stars)
3. Utah – Brian Johnson – 2 stars (Corbin Louks – 2 stars)
4. Texas – Colt McCoy – 3 Stars (John Chiles – 4 stars [Recruited as ATH])
5. Oklahoma – Sam Bradford – 3 stars (Drew Allen – 3 stars)
6. Alabama – John Parker Wilson – 3 stars (Greg McElroy 3 stars)
7. TCU – Andy Dalton – 3 stars (Marcus Jackson – 2 stars)
8. Penn State – Darryl Clark – 3 stars (Kevin Newsome – 4 stars)
9. Ole Miss – Jevon Snead (Could not find stars) (Nathan Stanley – 3 stars)
10. Texas Tech – Graham Harrell – 4 stars (Taylor Potts – 3 stars)
11. Oregon - Nathan Costa (3 stars), (Justin Roper – 3 stars)
12. Boise State- Kellen Moore (Couldn’t find), (Bush Hamden – 2 stars)
13. Virginia Tech – Sean Glennon – 4 stars, (Tyrod Taylor – 5 stars)
14. Georgia – Matthew Stafford – 5 stars, (Joe Cox – 3 stars)
15. Tood Boeckman – 3 stars, (Terrell Pryor – 5 stars)

Out of the Top 15 teams, Only 5 (unless Snead or Kellen Moore was one) had QB's rated 4 OR 5 stars. The rest had QB's that weren't very sought after, or at least weren't rated high. IF we don't get a 4 star QB in this class, it is not the end of the world. This year, we are stuck with Crompton, Stephens, and now LaMaison. IF we can just get one of those guys to manage the offense and make plays when needed (What all of those QBs on top 15 teams did), then we can be in the Top 15 too.

Not all hope is lost, even if we lose Jesse. Now, I do want him, as the staff obviously feels he is good enough, but I am just offering a little hope and encouragement to the Vol Nation that our entire season and future does NOT rest upon July 25th and the decision there. We now have 2 quarterbacks on the roster for 2010, and we have a VERY STRONG class of QB's coming up in 2011, so lets start hoping for LeMay, Golson, or Bridgewater.

If we get Scroggins, great. I think he'll be a good fit. I honestly do think we will get him, I think he knows that Tennessee puts him on a HUGE stage in a HUGE conference right away. But if we don't....we'll make it.

Hope this helps some people get a grip on our situation. GO VOLS!

if you have had him for over a month now, then why was Rees, Scroggins and Rettig offered knowing that jesse was #1 and they were saving a spot for him?

You are taking two QB correct?

He isn't a '10 recruit. He will be brought in for this upcoming year to provide some much-needed depth. Like I said, though, more power to him to get in the mix and see what he can do....

Something to take some comfort in: All of these rumors that were out there had Scroggins and Bailey announcing early, am I wrong on that? Now those rumors were proved false. Jesse says he still plans on announcing on the 25th. Should we find comfort in that or am I just reaching for things to feel positive about?

I for one do not think it will help people get a grip on the current situation. But thanks for the info.... nice research.

You are correct, Sab. And, that is the main source of the renewed optimism here.

Sab my opinion on this has been and still is no one knows. I take rumors seriously when they are based on a primary source. These rumors to me were always based on secondary sources. So I am still in the place of 50/50.

if you continue to hang around, you are going to have to provide some information on USC.

I know Michael Coleman was wanting to return this season. Is Pete letting him back? If not, is he going elsewhere?

Coleman? I have not heard his name in quite a while..

I think I have a better chance of playing for SC next year than Coleman does.. :hi:

Not sure if it is a good thing or a bad thing, but I kind of got the impression that Scroggins and Bailey were going 2 diffrent directions by the scout article.. I think they may have commited today if they had been going to the same place.. If that is the case, that would mean that the only way Scroggins goes to SC is if Bailey picks ND.. I may be sring the orange Kool-aid, but kind of the way I took it..JMO though

My brother works for the athletic dept and he said Scroggins, Bailey and Milton will be in Knoxville for a visit this weekend....Kinda like a final walk through. He said everyone is stoked and really laying it all on the line....

He said a Redbull truck pulled up to the athletic offices today and Coach O pile drived the driver then chugged 4 in about 30 seconds....
