I'm not going to get into details with who or where; he told me to refrain from giving specific details as much as possible when sharing info. He believes we're in very good shape and the guy has never told me anything to make me feel any differently about our situation with Adoree. UT's T&F program has been through some tough times, but we're still producing talent somewhat, and Adoree could help us in that area bigtime. Not only would he be one of the x-factors for this football team, but he could also help the other program reach new heights. That would be something special to be a part of IMO.
The reason I suggested Justin Gatlin is not because I don't understand the difference in jumping and running. I just figure Gatlin is a living example of someone who played Tennessee football and also went on to be an Olympic gold medalist in a track and field event. Gold medalist. That's big. Justin Hunter is great too, but his story is more of football success story. I think together they could illustrate what's possible in either field of athletics at the University of Tennessee for duel sports athletes like Adoree.
I hear his assistants love him...oh wait...
