Quote from the OS article

Vereen, who will make the switch from defensive end to linebacker in college, also had 59 tackles (44 solo) and 14 tackles for loss. Vereen had 11 offers prior to committing, choosing the Vols over Florida State, UCF, USF, Minnesota, Georgia Tech, Clemson, Louisville, Temple, Ole Miss and Duke.

Also had 16 sacks, and says he wants 30 this season.
 
Big discrepancy between the two . Vid had him at 44 more on the total and seven less on solos (37)

That Orlando Sentinel article ranks him #15 in their Florida Top 100. Vereen looks like he's got a lot. What I really like about him is the quick feet when he breaks on the QB. The kid's a closer.
 
What's not to like?! Fast, strong, smart, tough football player. Welcome aboard Corey. Take your cues from Curt and wreak havoc on offenses.

Now go recruit a couple more studs just like him, coaches.

He hasn't been rated by Rivals or ESPN yet. 247 has him at an 85 right now (mid-level 3 star). I would expect him to be more 88-94ish (high 3-star to mid 4-star). Is their early rating based only on Sophomore film or something?

I don't really care if that ends up being his final ranking cause I think he'll be a good one. I'm just wondering if we should expect to see that rating change.
 
If this kid is top 15 in Florida, he will definitely be ranked a 4 star by some recruiting services. Wonder if that wasn't for Central Florida recruits?
 
Yeah, except for the fact that Bama signed 9 three stars last year just like we signed 9 three stars.

Yeah I think some of the ratings things are funny. Now Sentimore(easy 4 star lock that was BS) and Trent Taylor should've both been 4 stars. But USC gets a lot of these 4 and 5 star boosts too(even though their class was sick).

I completely agree with you. I guess I was just getting at the fact that the boost is not as big as some people on here try to make it out to be.

It's not but I think Rivals makes sure they get certain prospects of certain teams right. It is what it is, if we want something to change then we better start winning.
 
Will be fun having a violent edge rusher out there. Plus someone that can and will set the edge hard. I like this guy more and more every time I watch his film. Got some hits on some QBs where he just bodybags 'em. He's relentless too. I really like this committ.
