If we take 3, I have a strong feeling that the staff will be letting their 2016 QB targets know that atleast 1 (2 if QD really shows out) will not be at QB by the time the 2016 QB starts competing for PT. And with how these kids have had faith in Butch, we'll be just fine.

So you think if CBJ started telling 2016 QBs today that at least 1 or maybe both of JJ and TG(if they took him) likely end up elsewhere(before they are ever on campus) you think the recruit and his family will trust much coming out of CBJ's mouth going forward?

Seriously. Think about that for a second.

I would love to see more of this ^......

and less of this....
blah blah blah... blah blah...... blah blah blah blah blobbidy blah blah

:good!:

I agree. Luginbill, Dilfer and Co. have just been talking out of their ass. I'm like I'll I want to see is the prospects compete. And what's the deal with this one 50 minute running clock game taking over an hour and a half on TV. ESPN recruiting seriously blows.

I was referring more to the bickering on this thread, but I agree 100%. ESPN is severly lacking when it comes to recruiting, compared to 247 and Scout imo.
 
Pretty good praise @ The Opening on ESPNU just now... mentioned he could be a potential Heisman Trophy winner @ QB, if developed in the right way. Said he needs a school that can resist the temptation to play him right away at WR . Also said he could be one of the best QB's if given a year or a year and a half to develop and that, after working with him for 3 days, he made a lot of progress.

Mentioned he has a deep commitment to play QB in college and they project him to play QB in college.

I think either one of our commits can be heisman winners if they are developed correctly. The hypesman is a useless award.

It is the oldest and most recognizable award in college football. It's a great marketing tool if anything. Plus, it looks really good in a Trophy Room.

SIAP...

Article on ESPN Insider discussing uncommitted quarterbacks at the Elite 11:

Gibson has Vols on top

Gibson is the only player at the Elite 11 listed as an athlete, but the 6-foot-5, 198-pound five-star prospect earned an invitation to the event largely based on his tremendous athleticism and the fact that he'll likely be given a shot to play quarterback at the next level.

Gibson, the nation's No. 12 overall prospect, is still sifting through several offers, but told ESPN's Gerry Hamilton that he has three official visits in mind.

"If I don't visit Ohio State this summer, I'm going to take an official visit to Ohio State," Gibson said. "I want to take an official visit to Arizona -- Arizona is showing a lot of interest in me. I'm taking a visit to Tennessee, and that's it for right now."

While several five-star prospects will be quiet on naming a leader during the process, Gibson didn't hesitate when it came to a top school for him.

"Tennessee is the leader," he said. "Just the coaching staff and recruiting. Coach [Butch] Jones had an awesome class last season and this season, they have a lot of big 2015 commitments. He's a great coach and UT is on the way to the top."

Obviously the UT coaches do. They took their commitments at QB. :dunno:

Consider the worst case scenario IF the staff took 3QBs. What if JJ moves to S, TG moved to WR, QD did not progress because of the injury, and because you took 3 in 2015, you don't get any in 2016.

Then, you have QB issues.

Worst case scenario? Do you even pay attention to your posts? You have long said we need to take a QB in 2016. So IF JJ moved to S, TG moved to WR and QD did not progress as we think then how many QBs would we have?

Dobbs, Peterman and QD. How in the world would that mean you get no QBs in 2016??? Seems to me the scenario you mentioned would be more favorable for 2 QBs in 2016.

It shouldn't be.

Dobbs has potential and Dormandy just missed an entire year of football.
If UT signs Jennings and Gibson, somebody is moving positions. They're both elite athletes. We are in no position to say no to that.

That makes no difference to Leb. QD is the 2nd coming of something. Plus he committed 2nd so there went TGs spot. Then Bruce committed, so there went TGs WR spot and now were down to Jeffersons decision. Just the same old broken record posts by Leb.
