I met him last night at the Eric Church concert in Saginaw. A buddy I had with me was wearing a Texas shirt, and he pointed at it and said, "They're trying to take Dalton from us." All Vol and a great guy, he was wearing his Tennessee football shirt underneath his jacket and had on his Tennessee camo hat. He saw me in my Tennessee stuff and came right over and introduced himself. He was excited as I was to see someone else wearing Vol gear!

And did you try to get any inside scoop from him as to what's the real deal with Dalton?

I didn't ask, but he did say that "we need him at the real UT." Hopefully, Danny can talk to him and get him here, but it did make me a little nervous to hear Dalton's best friend on the Vols flat out tell me that Texas is trying to take him from us.
Drama-free recruits like O'Brien, Bowles, etc are generally vastly underrated.
Very much agree. Assuming (not sure they are, but for argument's sake) that the coaches have to spend a lot more time and resources on people like Santos, imagine what other recruits out there we might have been in on had Santos stayed solid and not so high maintenance. O'Brien, Bowles, Croom, players like that who stayed solid all the way through should get nicer rooms in Gibbs.
Just to remind everyone of O'Brien's offer list. Kid is going to be good.

Oh yeah, Tennessee offered and he committed.
