'12 LA DT Gerron Borne

I think UTVOL02 was comparing them as guys we had penciled in at UT who we knew had a good chance of actually ending up elsewhere.

But I see the "commit without visiting" thing.
 
Both publicly committed to schools that neither had visited previously. That's the comparison, and it wouldn't shock me to see him go elsewhere like Parker did.

Ahh my bad. I thought you meant that Borne was a silent commit to UT and now told to look elsewhere. Guess that's not what you meant lol oops :peace2:

Me too, and also there's a little bit of a distance factor to Arizona for him as well. Nowhere near what Hawaii was to Tennessee, but still.

I don't think distance was a factor with Parker as he ended up going to Colorado.

It's 1,200 miles closer for him, but distance wasn't necessarily a factor with Parker's issues with his commitment. It was Chuck Smith letting him commit too early, and him getting lost in the shuffle. Parker would have never been allowed to commit here, under normal circumstances.
 
Remember this guy? We were all freaking out on why Dooley wouldnt let him commit. Lol. He's about to de-commit from Arizona, looking at Houston now.
 
We need DT's, sign em up!

Poor kid having to visit again and try to talk the coaches into taking him. Maybe by mid July they will see slow playing him is not a great idea.

Hope this is not another Gabe Wright situation. Sometimes pushing kids aside and telling them you may take them later if it is good for you...does not always make a kid feel wanted.

:popcorn:

LOL@ him being a silent.

I'm sure he is a silent commit. You know it's smart to have your 3 star Tackles stay silent so you do not scare off the bigger fish. "What, Borne now does not list Tennessee as his leader"? "He must be a silent commit". Maybe he just got tired of being told to sit and wait.

The funny thing is that Pace is still lurking according to his profile. Speak up, man. Your prediction about Vandy possibly having a better class than us was right on.
 
Pace had his time...now that's over...

Just as expected he has been nowhere to be found for over a month...but that doesn't mean I have to stop making fun of his ignorant drool
