We need some good news....

 

[volunteerlane]

Dont like how they are breaking the news about his announcement on the Auburn 247 site

Announcing at 12 ct today

Where did you hear this please?

With his "cream rises to the top" tweet and Barber flipping, and speeding up his announcement: all signs point to straight VOL homey

Announcing at 12 ct today

Hmmm.... Can't say I feel great about our chances but hopefully Barber's decision made him think.

@Niebuhr247: RB Johnathan Ford will announce around noon CT today ... #Auburn #Vols teams to watch ... #SigningDay

Would love to seee this kid choose Tennessee. I do not like the idea of a class with NO RB at all. Landing a kid who could take 75-100 of the carries this year would be ideal. Come on Rudy, put on that Orange Cap.

I agree! I believe Ford would supplant DY at no. 3 and push the older guys. Gives us 3 viable options on Saturdays. Would be hurtful not to get a RB in this class, IMO.

Hoping to hear good news come 12 ct time, hoping Ford goes orange.

Who's got the advantage here? Us or AU?

IMO, 60/40 AU.

When he got the AU offer, things changed for him. I think AU is where he wanted to go. Only chance I think we have is because AU took a commitment from Barber while Ford was considering his offer. If I were putting cash on it, I say AU.

Telling ya. Ford is not going to be a backup. He wants a fair opputunity. UT

 

[SCowlsVOL]

Well crossing my finger its us but with aub wanting to take 2rbs and a juco I just don't know how this will end.

Why is everyone confident? This kid just left Auburn.

I May have overread that. Was that confirmed SigNu?

Sounds like hope and not confidence.

bad point but a good point

 

[eazyTD]

He wasnt at auburn this weekend

 

[Voldirector11]

Ford wasnt in Auburn this weekend and he is ticked with Auburn Fans

 

[UTVOLS107]

I've got nothing new as of this morning. We couldn't confirm and don't believe he was at Auburn this weekend. Tennessee continued to talk to him as of last night. As of last night, I was still lead to believe he hadn't decided. Something, it seems, has changed with him announcing this afternoon.
