It's an Auburn/Tennessee battle & it will be all the way to NSD. He's NOT going to Clemson or LSU or Nebraska or anyone else. It's either Auburn or Tennessee & IMO it's going to be Tennessee, his mom wants him here, his brother wants him here, his coach wants him here, & he has a great relationship with Coach Smith.

AND WE WANT HIM HERE:good!:

If this is the case, then this has all the makings of a W in the Tennessee recruiting department. Unless he pulls a cruel stunt and goes to Auburn, after which I may pull a Wayne Brady and choke a (five-letter word that rhymes with "witch"). :peace2:
 
From a kid that picked the UT-UAB game over Auburn-South Carolina and the UT-Bama game over Auburn-LSU, I would say no.

If our 2 deep looks like this next year, I will be a happy man.

DT-Hughes/Walls
DT-Couch/Wright

If our 3 deep looks like this next year, I will be an even happier man.

DT- Hughes/Walls/Jeffery
DT- Couch/Wright/Johnson or Sylvester Williams

Then I think and then think, wow I can even go further at DT.

DT- Hughes/Walls/Jeffery/Carson
DT- Couch/Wright/Johnson or Williams/Saulsberry


Who would've thought that we could have SEC calibur depth at DT next year?

Don't kid yourself into thinking one recruiting class magically transforms the DT spot into a postion of depth.

It took several years to get in this spot and it's going to take a few more to dig out.
 
Rumor is that Wrights mother & brother are relocating to upstate South Carolina & thats why more interest has been show toward Clemson. I dont know if there is any truth to it but it's a rumor going around.

That would throw a bit of a monkey wrench into this, you think?

IMO, no. Right now it's just a rumor going around, I have'nt seen any confirmation on it yet. Some people call me a Orange Kool-Aid drinker on here because I think Wright will be a Vol but thats not true at all. I love fruit punch Kool-Aid :)
 
One thing is for sure... between UT, Auburn, and Clemson... our boy likes him some orange!

Look for Syracuse and Oklahoma State to start making some headway here.

It won't completely fix it but it sure can't hurt

:eek:lol::eek:lol::eek:lol:, Wright loves to play the media hahaha

jmoore...

I have little doubt it is an accurate quote from Wright.

I have said all along that I think Gabe will wear the Orange and White after all is said and done, but he is one of those guys that no one can ever be certain of until he actually signs on the dotted line on NSD. Even if he commits somewhere beforehand, it will just be an indication of interest.

Still -- in my opinion, everything points to him being a Vol after the smoke clears.

I agree.
 
Do you not think his brother and Mother going to upstate SC helps the Vols? That is only about at 2 1/2 hour drive to Knoxville and now instead of going to Auburn and only being 30 minutes from family he would now be about 4-5 hours away.

While that is true catdaddy, I would feel much better about them moving to Pigeon Forge rather than Clemson's back yard... especially given his recent comments.:ermm:
