'16 GA DT Derrick Brown

[engineerVOL]

If 75% of the class busts, then it's a Dooley class regardless of the rankings. Butch and his staff are much better talent evaluators than Dools. Even the 3*s we are landing have better offer lists than most of Dools 4*s.

Dooley's 2012 class was rated one of the all time greates failures in the modern era.

Hyams was talking about this yesterday. Only 5 players played in double digit games from that class! Five!!!!

You believed it was a coin flip?

Maybe

 

[Crazy Ivan]

With Byrd in the fold I'm sure Butch told him no thanks.

That makes perfect sense...

said no one...ever.

Ugh. More than half of UT's classes going back to 2005 were busts until 2014.

Odds on landing Brown?

Auburn boards say there is no chance he goes to UT, "they can confirm that."

Either UGA, AU, or BAMA.

Yeah just like they predicted Warrior

Yeah just like they predicted Warrior

I hope they're wrong again. I can't stand AU, they are just as bad as Bama fans.

I live in AL so I witness it first hand.

A lot of hard work and a lot of money and time have gone into what leads up to today. I am so proud of this staff and as I said previously no one works harder than coach jones in recruiting.

Today is a day to celebrate these efforts and get behind your program no matter how the chips fall. There should be no room for negativity given the dedication and sacrifices many of us and the staff
have made to get to today.
The future is bright and next year will be our coming out party.
have a wonderful day and enjoy it....I'm tys bound shortly.

Go vols!

Well said, AV. Have a safe trip.

I'm not defending Dooley's recruiting, but that stat is off.

CP
McNeil
O'Brien
Croom
Howard
Lewis
Sentimore
McCullers
King
Bynum
Blanc (barely)
Peterman (albeit, this PT probably included holding responsibilities)

Why the f - - - - anyone on the defensive side of the ball would want to go to Auburn right now is beyond me! Their coach is on the hot seat, they just downgraded their defensive coordinator, and the location of that campus sucks! Plus they're always going to play "little brother" to that other university!

are you talking about the Williams kid that miami wanted and ran a 4.28 40? If so..... bring on the 2 star.

 

[Volnerd]

Won't be surprised to see Brown at GA. I was surprised to see Hardman there. I thought he would stick with Pruitt.

Kirby is going to be tough to recruit against.

Lol. We TURNED AWAY Victor, dude. Williams was high on the recruiting board and a Miami commit. It's not like we just called up some scrub to be another warm body in the class.

If Butch was solely concerned about stars and rankings, this class would look very different.

Just so you'll know 95% of the time they say a high-school kid ran a sub 4.4 it's bullshiz. Put your fingers together as close as you can without touching them and that is how often it happens.
