Just watched Jesse's highlight vids on Rivals. Wow!
So much speculation right now on where he will end up. GVX has an article on Kiffin's QB quandary. He just reiterates what we have all been saying and that once we get a QB then all of the offensive chips will fall into place.
Quote:
While quarterbacks are committing elsewhere, UT is still on the prowl.
"That's a knock that the receivers, the tight ends and the running backs (mention)," Kiffin said. "That's one of the few things they come up with as a negative for us.
"They're so excited about everything but they say 'Coach, who's going to throw us the ball?' It will be real critical to get a quarterback or two to help us to even go to a higher level of recruiting than what we are doing now."
End
Interestingly too Kiffin mentions that we might not be getting the highest ranked O linemen, just the athletic guys that will fit or scheme to a tee.
Quote:
Securing offensive linemen is "very high" on UT's list of recruiting priorities, Kiffin said. However, don't expect UT to be chock full of four- and five-star blockers come National Signing Day 2010.
"They may not be the highest ranked players but they'll be players that fit our system - what we want," Kiffin said. "We want athletic guys. We want tough guys.
"I think what you may see is we may end up signing some guys that aren't household names in recruiting but will be great players in our system."
End
It all starts with Scroggins. Our recruiting season really depends on him for O.
