Yes he does :p & UT has moved up his latest school choice board. We were in his top 15 all along but I figured once he cut it down to top 5 we'd be out but we're not. We're probably around 3rd or 4th right now though behind Michigan State & Kentucky for sure.

Yes, Kentucky appears to be ahead of us. We've got to change that because this kids a 4* & when we start dropping 2017 recruits it would be nice to have some 4* & 5* recruits to gain.

Is he more talented than Yusuf Coker? The 3 * out of Georgia?

A definite yes in my opinion. He can do quite a bit more than Corker. Corker is also a favorite to become a Vol unless we decide no more 3 * recruits & then start dumping the ones we have committed. That's why I say this guy would be an upgrade to Corker & Trey Coleman plus quite a few other 3* guys.

I knew you would say something to this effect 😌. Because he's a 4 star.

Tony Tony Tony.

This kid is not even close to Corkers' talent. Corker has a legit offer from Alabama to play CB.

Corker is 6'1 and lighting fast with great ball skills. Hes also a very good sprinter in track and field.

Corker is not even an ATH. This guy is an ATH so how could you compare them? Corker plays CB & this guy plays mainly QB & S. You can't compare them really. Way different positions on the field. BTW, if you knew I would say that then why did you ask? :eek:lol:

How is this even a real take? What, because they play different positions, you can't determine if one is more talented than the other? You mean to tell me that I can't tell that Derek Barnett is a more talented football player than Josh Smith because they play different positions?

Furthermore, you answered his question by doing the very thing you claim can't be done; which was comparing them. It was literally the first thing you typed in response...

Corker plays WR and CB. So he is an ATH because he can play both well.

Now, he's not listed as an ATH. All the same .

The reason I asked is because, you spend a lot of time focusing on recruiting.

I just want you to... get a better feel about the players potential.
Cant always go by these rankings Tony.

We have a few 4 stars who are just... kind of taking up scholarships if you know what I mean.

"After his performance against Mooney, Bowden joined Maurice Clarett (4,153), Dan "Boom" Herron (3,774), & Keemari Murry (3,159) as the only WGH players in history to eclipse 3,000 rushing yards in his career."

Can't imagine that a 17 year old who's already shown the egregious judgment to acquire a massive neck tat matches up with Butch's recruiting profile.

Kind of feel bad for him. He's basically locked himself away from any professional job for the rest of his life. Maybe it's just me though. I'm of the view that if you like art, put it on your walls.

Tattoos have become much more socially acceptable over the past 2 decades. One of the biggest indicators of the generational gap nowadays is the percentage of people in any given age range with a tattoo.

For those over 50, it's something like 5-10%. For those in their 40s, it's closer to 15-20%. For millenials, it's nearly 50%.


And this kid still managed to get a tattoo so awful it will ruin his career prospects 😂😂😂
