'14 TN K Aaron Medley (UT Signee 2/5/14)

OU and aTm offers forced Butch's hand. Can't lose an instate guy to another SEC school. I'm sure he'd have earned the offer at camp, but seems like the timing had more to do with other offers.
 
Doesn't the state of Tennessee have like 3 out of the top 10 kickers this year? Wasn't this the initial reason for the camp of kickers? His highlight vid is great though. From those quotes, it definitely sounds like Butch just said checkmate.
 
Palardy was highly rated and he hasn't been the answer. The margin for error with this team is slim to none. If this kid is the answer at kicker you get him. He could make the difference in one or two games.

Kickers are really hard to evaluate in HS. Basically all you find out in HS is how big their leg is. Unfortunately its tough to find out consistency and whether they have the stones to kick in front of 102,000 until they do it. Hopefully Medley does have all of that if he comes aboard.

Palardy didn't kick many FGs in high school, think he kicked all of 9 his senior year. Was a very good punter though, averaged 47 yards a kick. Which was probably why he was #2 kicker(Rivals), wasn't from his FG kicking ability.

Medley has a lot of kicks, hopefully that translates to less nerves.
 
I hope he commits soon. I love talented kids with orange blood running through the T and giving their all for Tennessee. Hope they sign each every one they can find that can play at a high SEC level. I am now convinced CBJ/staff will do just that.
