I feel like we lost the games we needed to win to land this kid. I think an 8 win season would have helped a lot with him. JMO

What games should we have logically won that we didn't? At this point we are one game ahead of the spread. What's helping us most in recruiting is that the kids look at our roster and think playing time is available very early.

Didn't say we logically should have won certain ones. I just think Adoree seems to be attracted to winning programs. As good as he is, playing time is available at any school. Wins against Georgia or Florida would've helped IMO.

I don't know that I have ever seen a true freshman lock down half the field without a single td scored on him in their full first year. Incredible.

LSU leads per Fort. He said UT made up some ground but LSU is the leader. Fort said he thinks Adoree will go to a place that is a proven winner and is already on top. He would still get big minutes at LSU as a Frosh.

So if being a winner and already being on top is in consideration, UF is definitely out. 34-17 lulz

We're still on top of UT :dance2:.

I'd take this with a grain of salt. Not saying he's going to UF, but I haven't heard anything to indicate they aren't near the top of his list.

Not sure how you pulled from that quote that UF was ahead of UT. I think you may have actually pulled it out from someplace the sun doesn't shine.

I'm not arguing with you. Although, injuries have severely hurt UF this year.......we only have 50 something scholarship players available this week. But, there are no excuses at UF. Either Muschamp goes or he brings in an OC who can score points.

of course it was Basilio

I heard his show this morning, and he said, "If the 5 star kid from California had to choose today, he'd pick the Vols."

I went to his website expecting to read something from "X" about him, but there was nothing. So, I don't know what to think about where we stand with Adoree Knows...

Not being mean, but Mike Jenkins is one of the most unathletic people I've ever seen play WR. Maybe in college it was different, but he got outran by LBers in the league. He also couldn't create separation and had catching issues. He was a non factor a few years in to his NFL career.

Like I said I didn't watch him in college, and he did get drafted early so he might have just stopped caring at some point. I bet today at 29-30 or however old he is, he couldn't run a 4.8 forty.

He HAD to have meant Malcolm Jenkins. You are spot on about Mike. He was drafted at the beginning of the shift towards big receivers and grossly misscouted.

As u could see I compared him to Jenkins while he was at Ohio State.. Jenkins only plays WR in the NFL.. At Ohio St. He was a Playmaker on both sides of the ball.. You must be a young guy.. Anyone watching college football in those years would of not questioned this.. Yea I meant Malcom thanks guys..

Malcolm doesn't play WR and he didn't in college either. And if you are talkin about Micheal Jenkins he didn't ever play on defensive.
Therefore you must mean Chris Gamble or not, but it definitely wasn't who you are saying. I lived in Ohio for 17 years and lived through hell with the buckeye fans. I'm 26 and Inknow neither one of those guys played both ways.

Easley was an absolute beast. One of the best players on defense in the league, imo.

It sucks losing good players like that; its happened to us way too many times in these last few years.
