'15 LA RB Kendall Bussey (Former UT commit)

I was lucky enough to be on a flight out of Knoxville on Sunday afternoon and Kendall got onto my flight. I asked him if he had a good time on Rocky Top, he said "Yes", AND Then I told him how excited we would be to have him wearing Orange and White.

He smiled, thanked me for the support.

I had to snap his picture and then others around me asked who he was, i told them and several others said "Hope you come to UT".

I'm NOT trying to creep on recruits, but I do think that it's interesting that SOO many people around knoxville follow recruiting and know what's important, the lifeblood, of our future success is. players..

I left him alone on the flight and didn't bother him again, just wanted to show my support for him as a vol, so haters just Get off!

Guys we are full...looks like the staff is ok with only 2 RB's cause it sounds like this wasn't all Bussey.

His father cited numbers issues as to why Kendall Jr was uncomfortable with the situation. Obviously, not trying to look too far into it but certainly makes you wonder if there was a grey shirt/blue shirt situation here.

Yep if your not close to home or don't have a coach that was good friends with his dad growing up then your not a fit. It's a shame considering TN was his dream school

When they started pursuing him back in November I said this was a kid you couldn't count on even if he committed. My only concern was he'd commit and they'd get burned by losing out on another RB in the meantime and unfortunately it did play out that way with losing Bryce Love to Stanford. To me losing Bussey is no big deal at all, but it sucks it cost us Love in the meantime.
 
Man, we really whiffed on this one..... Not many care about this one because everyone is enamored with the Richmond drama--- could be one reason he flipped--- took an official with Dad this weekend at UT and were probably lost in the shuffle as I feared.. hard to believe they would take their last official this weekend to the school they were committed to and then walked away and De-committed unless they felt not a priority.... not a good showing by our staff...
