Wish we were doing this cuz we gets no commits.

Funny that it's already deleted from his twitter. That raises no red flags at all.

The only thing I don't like is we're on his far left. And he's a righty. From the hat positions it looks like FSU.

So that ole miss hat looks awful

See you rednecks in 80 minutes

Most of the time recruits picks up the hat from under the table. The ones on the table are just for show.

Just take D4H's word on this. He's never wrong.

Marlin Lane was the projected starter until Hurd took over.

And Marlin couldn't hold his jock. Lane wasn't good after his junior year of high school

We stole Marlin Lane from Clemson and they got Tajh Boyd, Higgins and Lord knows who else from us. Awesome trade off.

Lane was a more highly ranked recruit than Kelly

34 out of the 46 Pro Bowlers this year were 3* or lower in High School. Stars mean almost nothing these days.

As most of the tea leaves are now pointing to FSU, I will freely admit that I have been trolled. I am not sure by whom, as anyone that predicted him to Tennessee either, really, really wanted him to, or did have some information at that point in time that seemed positive for Tennessee. I never thought he was a lock, but I was optimistic and I did get my hopes up based upon some of the posts in this thread. To be honest, I would rather get my hopes up about recruits and be happy about it for a while instead of being completely negative the whole time and then subsequently finding fault with something else after the pessimism does not play out like I want it to. If he does sign with FSU or Ole Miss, I will be disappointed, but I have too many other good things in my life to be miserable about anything that I read here. Go Vols.

Hats are in alpha order

For the record, it's like 34 out of 88, but that's still a pretty strong stat.

If There are like 500 3*s and 50 5*s...

Ok however you have to develop those players, we don't know if Butch is capable of doing this yet because the hes never stayed long enough anywhere to do so. However the small sample size suggest he cannot. You're not going to strike it rich with 22 3 stars in the SEC.

Lots more 3 stars floating out there. That's what deflates that stat.

He never bounced back after his injury. Please tell me you think he is better than JK so I know now to just drop this debate.

 

[Ron Swanson]

Dissecting the hat situation is stupid. He's going to pull a completely different hat from under the table.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

However...

The hat T Smith used to commit is the same one that was on the table at first. Didn't Smith have an orange hat on the table and then he pulled out a black/grey UT hat when he committed?

I thought that hat on the table looked familiar. I associated it with Trey as soon as I saw it.

Which makes switch gate all the more plausible...
