'17 TN ATH Amari Rodgers (Clemson commit)

[butchna]

Manhattan coach, Steve Masiello. Pitino disciple go figure.

That's the one!

 

[ionaVOL]

That's the one!

Tried to leave for the South Fla job IIRC and ended up back at Manhattan after he finished a course or two at Kentucky in summer school. Looking forward to hopefully handing him a few losses this year when Iona plays them.

Get him Butch!

 

[Brillovol]

Tee coming home?

 

[The Shooter McGavin]

Cue it's happening gif.

Tee coming home?

Nope Helton retained Tee

Nope Helton retained Tee

Butch "retained" Jay Graham

Nope Helton retained Tee

Of course, that doesn't necessarily mean that we (or someone else) couldn't still hire Tee if he wanted to be here. It would make sense that one of the individuals close to him that he had consulted with on this decision would be his father.

 

[Brillovol]

I was mostly kidding but anything is possible.

 

[BowlBrother85]

He probably won't do anything for a while and it's obvious from his twitter that he really likes Clemson and they just offered. I still don't expect Tee to come back (at least not this year).

What does the last sentence mean? That Tee made him commit? Or something else?

 

[etcolton]

I know Amari is younger, but he would be be a nice addition instead of Mecole Hardman. He's super smooth

It means he wants to reconsider without being under the label of "committed"

My son sat behind his family at the game this past weekend. His mother either told my son (he'll talk with anybody and everybody)or he overheard her saying that her son was going to UT so she could watch him play. She also intimated that Tee would be here also. I didn't think anything of it at the time since it had already been announced that Tee was being retained.

Interesting to watch how this actually plays out.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Being retained is Helton's stance toward Tee. He has no say in the event that Tee wants to seek his entertainment elsewhere.

 

[PassedOutAwake]

Tee did play QB....

We DO have a QB Coach opening....


not gonna happen though

Clemson thinks he decommitted because of Clemson. Rofl

Go tell Clemson, if we want any of their players, we will stroll over, and take whoever we dang well please

 

[drvenner]

I think that Clemson is relevant, now. I think that the timing is interesting, too. I think that there's a chance he decommitted because of both Tennessee and Clemson and not much of a chance he decommitted only because of Clemson.

I don't think that Dad plays as big a role in where he goes anymore.

But I would love to hae him on staff if for nothing else his recruiting! Plus he can coach a lil bit. And a VFL so it would be a great addition, but like many have said "ain't gonna happen"

 

[JohnMcA60]

Wouldn't rule out USC all together either. Kid will be great wherever he goes.

Per Vq and PFort watch out for Clemson here.
