Maybe this is why the coaches have not taken his commitment yet… They probably want to see him against some decent competition in high school this year.

He should probably be in jail instead of the NFL though

Eh. I've heard the stories, the fact that he didn't get in trouble was puzzling. That being said I personally think Ray Lewis should've been locked up too.

On to Manny, idk if he's a take or not. Taking LVs argument, numbers don't seem on his side if you ask me.

I don't think he's in play if Phillips is a Vol. Phillips, Jackson, and Butcher at DE is plenty for 2015.

I agree completely. Especially since our staff sees Jackson at DL and not OL. Assuming we get Richmond, we have two maybe G maybe T guys in Jones and Hall, a true C/G in Stewart, and a true T in Richmond. Sounds perfect to me.

Some thought that about Jakob Johnson last year too. He may prove to be too good to resist this year. Lets see how he performs

The section highlighted in bold-lettering is code for Vol-Lock. If UT will accept Olenga's commitment, which ATP it seems they would, he will be a Vol very soon.

Emmanuel Olenga, DE, 6-4/241, Charlotte, N.C.

Olenga may not be the flashiest recruit with a giant offer list, but Tennessee has seen something in the North Carolina defensive end for some time now and were quick to pull the trigger earlier this spring when he visited campus. Olenga apparently did nothing but back up that offer when he camped in Knoxville earlier this summer.

With only Tennessee as his major offer right now, the Vols are easily the school everyone is chasing. Other teams like Notre Dame, where he is scheduled to camp this upcoming month, and Clemson are still in the discussion phase of an offer, but the Vols have a huge lead on any team that does eventual offer the long defensive end. Look for Olenga back on campus for the Vols' recruiting weekend of July 19 and don't be surprised if that's when he pulls the trigger.

People talk about Offer List out weighs Stars. I do not see much for offers. Any good reason for this?

basically he played club football last year and no one knows about him. TN coaches went extra mile in doing research.

With so many still elite players still on the board what is the incentive to take him now? Feb is quite far away.

Because I am guessing the coaches see him as a possible elite player. He seems to be physically gifted. May as well take him a d deal with it later if others are interested. IMO, there are really only a few other DE's that we would take anyway.

On Olenga:

"He said he planned to commit today but he was supposed to bring his transcript and forgot it. Tennessee wants to see his transcript because he played with a club football team last year so they are just wanting to make sure everything is alright."

"He said he hopes to bring it when he goes back to Tennessee or when a coach comes to see him."
