VQ thinks UT could offer sometime in the future, and UT is tracking his progress. He holds offers from Vanderbilt and Arkansas State so far.

slow 40 time to be so small

He is short for Dooley's preferred cornerback height. He must be really athletic and talented.

The 40 times that Rivals lists are usually incorrect, especially for guys that aren't in the current recruiting cycle or haven't camped a lot. I knew someone would comment on the 40 time, but just keep in mind that it's probably inaccurate.

What I thought. He's about as short as Holsey.

Is there any chance we don't want him at CB?

If that 4.65 40 is anything but laser timed than he's not very fast for his size.

"I actually have been to a Nike Camp at Memphis along with the Ole Miss camp and Memphis's camp," he said. "I'm going to Tennessee on Tuesday and then I'm supposed to be at camp on Friday and Saturday at Vanderbilt."

Sims holds offers from Ole Miss, Vanderbilt, Cincinnati, Memphis, Marshall, Mississippi State, Arkansas State and Western Kentucky.

Of the schools listed for trips, Tennessee is the only one yet to offer.

"That's the thing, if they give me an offer they'll be in my top three or four," he said. "I guess when I get there Tuesday they just want to see me at camp to finalize an offer. I'm trying to give them a chance since they are close to home."

Sims says he may be nearing a decision.

Sweet want

Why?

 

[Orange Venom]

I'm hearing from someone at the camp that Sims is by far the best DB at the camp.

He is dominating camp.

Is Noel Ellis there as well?

 

[OCIVol]

The in-state talent this year is incredible. High school football is really improving in-state. Good sign for future success of UT.

 

[Ron Swanson]

But is he going to be a Vol?

 

[ORANGE & WHITE]

Sims has really picked up a lot of interest with his camp performances this summer. I hope we get the chance to take him.

 

[volfrk86]

I hope he earned an offer I. Would love to add him to our db class this year I'm tired of watching ole miss geting recruiits from memphis freely I hope that changes this year in a big way

 

[tvols75]

Why?

Because he's dominating camp, moron

 

[tvols75]

Our future secondary could consist of all TN HS players and TN legacies. Sounds amazing to me.

But we have been told there is no D1 talent in TN

As per usual with the Memphis kids, it's not always easy for them to get over to Knoxville often. I'm not going to worry about us being a factor with him if we offer after camp. We just need to get him, and other Memphis players, to campus multiple times (which isn't easy).

Thanx bro appriciate the help lol that was funny

 

[UTCVol]

Per Fortenberry he didn't receive an offer yet but could in the near future once the staff gets done evaluating everyone.

I hope we don't. That would mean we closed with D.Gray, Ramsey, Bell, Miles, and JRM(Monster DB Haul).
