'15 TX ATH Ryan Newsome

[ntxVOL]

No contest to the Smokies and the traffic in Austin is akin to rush hour in Bangledesh.

I agree Knoxville is more to my liking but I wouldn't call Austin a ****hole either. Either place beats the hell out of Aledo, TX.

Then by your count we have to cut 3 to be at 25.well we are at 28 with a few players still looking at pulling the trigger so I guess we tell them no?

The count is 25. With Swafford off that it is 24, if there is indeed a blue shirt from last year that LWS and Matthews have referred to that count drops to 23 initial qualifiers that can sign LOIs on NSD. (minus the EEs on campus that do not sign LOIs but are bound by university benefits already). So whatever we take after that would have to be nonscholarship walk on players or blue shirt players which would forward count towards next year's initial qualifiers.

In state guys that have not taken OVs to campus or had in home visits by the staff qualify for blue shirt status. Perry, Oliver, Bruce, Stewart, and Lovingood qualify for that status. Some of course are unlikely to go that route but those are the kids that qualify off the top of my head.

And with that I'm done discussing the numbers before I turn into Leb.

Pshhh everyone knows knoxville is literally the best place in the world for college kids.

With that rationale every player in the country should go to ASU.

From Brad Shepard. Here's what he had to say about his CB to UT on 247:

I'm doing that today. Mostly because I have nothing to gain or lose in doing so, but also because I really do think that he has a great relationship with Kirkland and McKenzie, and there is A LOT of interest there. Whether it materializes in him being a Vol or not, whatever. So, I guess you could say I don't have any information here, but I'm going on a limb by myself.

 

[bignewt]

Welcome Brad its a great view you can see Rocky Top from here!

You're right. We should make sure he knows how good the dank is in Knoxville. Has he visited? If so he probably already knows.


Ps If you don't know what ''dank'' is... Nevermind

Brad Shephard has that to say on all of his CBs. He has no reliable connections from what I can tell.

Is that a high school indoor practice facility?

Is that a high school indoor practice facility?

Most of these guys are partnered with athlete development centers. I would imagine that is the more likely setting.

 

[InVOLuntary]

I get a feeling here that Newsome wants very badly to be a Vol but maybe the family isn't on board.

New scout article, he LOVES coach Z and CBJ. Parents seem like they'd be the only obstacle, which is obviously a big one

TX HS Football has better facilities than UGA! Lulz.

If you played perpendicular to the numbers you'd almost have enough room to have a competitive flag football game...

He admits when he does and doesn't have connected info. I like that he doesn't pretend to know. He has a really good middle TN source.

"Zach Azzanni and Mike Bajakian will be in Texas to visit with Ryan Newsome on Thursday. Tennessee is a real factor for Newsome after we wondered if he would be willing to leave the state. But we've received several indications in the last week that the Vols are definitely a realistic choice. Butch Jones, as of now, is scheduled to be in Newsome's home on Sunday."
