Sure, missing those trips is worth mentioning, but so are the numerous unofficial visits he did make that you are convieniently ignoring. He doesn't have to officially visit before announcing. Only difference in an official visit and an unofficial visit is who fits the bill. You know that. Not sure why you're being so closed-minded on the subject.

I am not closed minded at all. I think he needs to step foot on campus again to give us a realistic chance. The flip side of that is smith committing changed everything with him and him being here a few times before this year is enough. I see both sides plenty well I just think we need him back to campus to get excited.

Akers was here for two or three games this fall. Last one being Bama where he spent all weekend in Knoxville, he was here for Florida game and he was either here for ASU or Ohio as well. What the hell is Bruin blathering about? What a troll.

Ron gives quality info to this board, and most the time it's reliable. It's been noted he had visited 2-3 times unofficially this fall, so stop getting so riled up. Plain and simple fact is that you're wrong here, so accept it and move on. I appreciate all the info you bring Ron.

I think we need him to be an EE. He'd come in early with his buddy Trey Smith and the offensive situations at LSU and Ole Miss currently stand without coordinators. Keep in mind we are about to enter a dead period. Even if these schools hire a new coordinator soon, he won't have much of a chance to build a relationship with them if he does decide to enroll early.

Plus, new coaches always come with the glimmer and shine of optimism. Strike while other schools are dealing with an unknown.

"Ignont gets held & starts crying to the official"

I don't think he's still considering UT, he doesn't even have an OV scheduled. But, someone else may have better information than me.

"I don't think he was ever off the table. The reality is he and his family have kept things extremely close to the vest. For some reason, a lot of analysts act like he didn't take a two-day unofficial visit to Tennessee when they played Alabama.

Now, do I know what he will do? No idea. Like I said earlier, Tennessee and Ohio State are viewed as the teams to watch by some. Others think it's LSU, Ole Miss and FSU.

When you see this kind of all over the map stuff, you never know exactly what to think."

He didn't visit this fall. That is a fact. He was on the visit list at least twice and was a no show. The only game he saw us play was at Georgia.

This is the VN I grew to know and love. Recruiting is heating up. We are getting down to the wire and big names possibly joining the Vols on signing day. Ron giving premium info that everyone gets pumped about, and Bruin questioning everything and pissing Ron off even though Ron obviously has Bruin blocked... hahahaha 'Tis the season Volnation! Now we just need a Terrypedigo drive by

I think he is wrong since the other sites said the opposite. If he is correct with everyone else being wrong then my thinking about needed an OV is retracted.

He literally said it like two days ago, and he gets paid to do this so I don't think he would make this up..

I don't think anyone really knows a lot about Cam. Seems to be a quiet kid that doesn't want the spotlight on him.

Not sure if he made it or not, but with conflicting reports from people much more in the know than us, I think saying he for sure made it in or for sure didn't is kind of silly.

IMO there is little to no shot Cam chooses us. FSU bound. JMO

Dude. It's simple he was supposed to come to Knoxville a number of times this fall and didn't make it. If you think that isn't worth mentioning and isn't relevant then so be it but I think it's telling. Without a trip this fall we need him to OV before announcing. That's my opinion And if you don't agree that's fine.

He cancelled his trip one time due to a scheduling conflict that I know of. Per usual you just make up sh1t.

Can someone ask fort if he is sure Akers came in that weekend? Maybe fort was just planning that he would be there, Akers actually didn't show up, and for some reason Fort has forgotten that he didn't come.

Or, Akers is playing so close to the vest, that the services didn't even know he was in Knoxville.

If he didn't come that weekend, then I agree with Bruin.

If he came the Alabama weekend, you'd think there would be confirmation from the media. I'd think several would have been writing about it. I can't find anythng.
