It went great, said Phillips[.]
It was a really good experience.
I really liked the indoor practice facility, the whole football locker room everything,
I liked how, with the indoor (facility), everything was kind of, like, together. The indoors right there with the weight room right there, with the offices right there. Its, like, all together. I liked how that was.
I got to talk to Coach Jones. I talked to almost every single coach, Phillips said. I talked to just about everybody. I went to the academic center and talked to the tutors they had, and they told me about everything they do, how much help you get with everything, so that was good.
I really like how everythings organized stuff like that."
Phillips said his mother wasnt able to accompany him on the visit because she recently had knee surgery, but he was joined by his grandfather and one of his cousins, who are both really huge UT fans.
A whole bunch of my family now Im realizing this a lot of them are, like, big UT fans. But it only comes down to my decision at the end. I really dont have a good idea (right now), because Ive only been on two visits to Vandy and UT, so Im not going to just make my choice be down to those because those are my only two visits.
Im not going to say my moms really big on Vandy, Phillips said. She went to Vandy. But its just my decision, really. I mean, shes going to help me through the process with it her and my dad or whatever but shes really not leaning toward any (school). Shes not going to force me to go to Vandy or push hard toward Vandy. Shes going to make sure whats the best for me come the end.
Even though she likes Vandy and she went there, that might not be the best for me, so shes open, just like me, to any school. Its just what fits me, what Im going to be happy with, because thats a life-changing decision going to college so what schools the right school for me?
Me and her, everybody in my family, is just open to anything. They want me to be happy wherever I am.
