'14 TN WR Josh Malone (UT commit 12/4/13)

I'll give you a pass this time. Just never forget to respect your elders.

dude, calm down

If we really wanted Malone his thread count would be much higher

trust me if he picks anybody but Tn , his count will go crazy in like an hour.

 

[OrangeLynx]

I really think this guy is a must get. A three wide receiver set with Malone, North, and Williams in 2016 with Dobbs/Fergie as QB and Helm at TE would truly be able to terrorize just about any defense.

dude, calm down

See the five stars under my name? That means I'm clearly a better poster than all you two and three star "diamond in the rough" types.

Malone will be a Vol on December the 4th and the 2014 class will have its final brick.

***Mosely will commit before then to Vols too***

You think that is it? No commits from Dec 4 to NSD?

No JUCO DT's? Just Malone and Mosley? I HIGHLY doubt that's the finish to this class. If I had to guess there will be at least 4-5 new names from today until NSD.

Someone not even on the radar.

 

[BruinVol]

Someone not even on the radar.

I am hoping not because that likely would mean we missed on a number of guys.

I agree with Ron, 3-5 more commits

Not necessarily.

 

[BruinVol]

Not necessarily.

You thinking a best available any position surprise??

That, and we could always take a late swing at a grades risk guy like the Leggett kid from last yr(or the year before). Usually happens every year.

 

[eazyTD]

There's always new names that pop up around December and January. Curt Maggitt completely came out of nowhere a few weeks before NSD iirc.

I could see another JUCO DT, but I think that happens here soon too.

I think we add Mosely, Malone and one other JUCO DT.

Then lose 1 commit somehow, and finish with 33. Signing 30 and Wharton, Dews and Medely blue/gray shirt.

I hope Wharton is blue rather than grey then

 

[OrangeLynx]

I think we close with Mosely, Malone (fingers crossed), one JUCO DT, and one other player (either an OT like Bookster, another JUCO DT, or Jakob Johnson).

Paulk and Dews grayshirt, check their threads, MDObserver and Paulk's recent tweet suggests this is accurate. I think they will find a way to have one or two players blueshirt. I still think we lose someone currently committed.

At any rate, is is really really nice to have all these kids lining up to be Vols. In one year, Butch has gone from having to go hat in hand to these kids homes trying to get them to be Vols to having a full recruiting class by early November. That is progress

Has he been on an OV? My understanding is that you can't blue shirt if you've been on an OV or had an in-home with the coaches.

Not sure, but the blues must be hardcore TN guys, cause they could leave at anytime without consequence. I'd like Malone and 2 juco DT's , leaving room for one surprise on signing day... Ie , if garret or Jackson unexpectedly pledge for us

FYP

I think the Vandy game will have a lot to do with Malone joining UT. If we win and show some signs of improvement he will most likely end up here.

When coaches get fired, take other jobs, etc., new names previously committed to other schools will pop up. Always happens.

I think its important, but I feel that Malone is too methodical and intelligent to base his decision off one game. I really think the choice has already been made, whether he is a Vol or not.

Either way, two weeks till decision day!
