'14 CA CB Adoree' Jackson (Signed with USC)

So it's down between us and LSU?

I hate battling LSU for DBs. I'm sure other schools feel the same way about battling us for WRs.

If it's between us and Corndog U, I like our chances. He can play early here as well, but I think he can tell something special is going on in Knoxville. Also, with the way the east is shoring up, Tennessee could be primed to take advantage of another somewhat down year as long as our EE's come in and show out. A lot of kids in this class have day one potential, just have to get them on campus and into our system. Regardless, the future looks bright (orange). GBO.

It's not between just us and LSU.
 
I see:

Florida Medium Offered None Brian White, Travaris Robinson
Florida St. Medium Offered 11/02/2013 Tim Brewster, Jeremy Pruitt
Illinois Medium Offered None
LSU Medium Offered 10/11/2013
Michigan Medium Offered None
Notre Dame Medium Offered None Mike Denbrock
Oklahoma Medium Offered 10/04/2013 Jay Norvell
Oklahoma St. Medium Offered None
Oregon Medium Offered None
Tennessee Medium Offered 11/08/2013
UCLA Medium Offered None Adrian Klemm
USC Medium Offered None
 
I thought he was underwhelmed with the hire?
Perhaps but he likes the school and depending on the staff they hire, they have time to smooth over any differences. I think right now it's LSU and us with a slight lead. If things ended today I think he would be a Tiger. I think the staff goes after him with similar tenacity as we saw closing out with Malone. Somehow Jones has maintained momentum throughout the recruiting process even when we lost a big recruit would commit. It's about to be the silly season with staff changes. It will be interesting to watch how Jones continues to create momentum up to NSD.

Since arriving in Knoxville, Tennessee coach Butch Jones has focused intently on keeping the best prospects in the state at home. The Vols took another step toward that goal Wednesday after Josh Malone (Gallatin, Tenn./Station Camp), the top-rated player in the state, committed to Tennessee. Malone is the No. 48 overall prospect in the ESPN 300 and the No. 6 wide receiver.

The 6-foot-2, 191-pound Malone chose Tennessee over Clemson and Georgia in a recruitment that kept many on the edge of their seats.

The talented playmaker began his official visits on Sept. 27 with a trip to Athens to visit Georgia, which was once considered the favorite. Following the visit to Georgia, Malone made official visits to Tennessee on Oct. 5, Ohio State on Oct. 26, Florida State on Nov. 1 and Clemson on Nov. 22. Many thought the SEC would dominate Malone’s list, but Clemson proved to be the toughest competition for Tennessee.

The Vols now have four of the top six prospects in the state committed. In addition to Malone, Tennessee has reeled in ESPN 300 prospects No. 59 overall Todd Kelly Jr. (Knoxville, Tenn./Webb School of Knoxville), No. 62 Jalen Hurd (Hendersonville, Tenn./Beech Senior High) and No. 296 Derek Barnett (Brentwood, Tenn./Brentwood Academy).

Currently ranked No. 2 in the RecruitingNation class rankings, the Vols have 33 commitments, including 11 ESPN 300 commitments and 17 four-star prospects. The Vols also boast five junior college transfers ranked in the recently released ESPN JC 50. The class features prospects from 11 states, plus the District of Columbia.

But Jones is not done yet. The Vols are still in the hunt for three-star lineman Charles Mosley (Brighton, Tenn./Brighton), with a decision likely at the end of this week, as well as No. 7-ranked Adoree' Jackson (Gardena, Calif./Junipero Serra), No. 37 Clifton Garrett (Plainfield, Ill./Plainfield South), No. 61 Travis Rudolph (West Palm Beach, Fla./Cardinal Newman) and No. 108 Derrell Scott (Havelock, N.C./Havelock), among others.
