Good we got Thomas today but sucks losing Green

Just what little I've read... this was an "interesting" recruit with an inexplicable ranking.

Yeah it very well could've been a mutual separation

 

[VFLBerg]

Yeah it very well could've been a mutual separation

From what I've read he didn't have as good a year as anticipated.

 

[tnvols72]

I guess he was getting passed over or he would of never seen the field. NO BIG LOSS

We’ve got several CB players visiting this week. Get the feeling Pruitt told this commit that he was no longer needed. A shame, hopefully he finds another school soon.

 

[Tarkus]

If we’re in a numbers crunch, we may be telling some of these guys that they need to look elsewhere in order to make room for players we need more.

He supposedly lost his starting spot in JUCO, so yeah, UT moved on.

Making room, didn't play most of the year.

This kids offer was pulled. If you check his twitter, he's been retweeting positive material pretty consistently for the last few weeks, up until 2 days ago excited about our bowl destination.....Pruitt making room. We're really not in the market for a JUCO corner anyway....its unfortunate because hes been committed for so long, but this commitment stuff goes both ways..

 

[Kinglberry]

That was right after Ansley went and watched a game in person.

 

[rocketskates]

My guess is more recruiting bombs are about to come out and this kid didn’t see himself getting more playing time.

Yep. Heard we should expect more of this leading up to signing day. I guess things are churning in a good way for us.

 

[TNHopeful505]

JUCOs are nice, but when you have several young guys playing well and you feel you dont need that experience, then it's much better to bring in a 4 year guy. I think with Thompson, Taylor, Shamburger, and others playing well, It may be better to drop this guy.

Personally? I think this is how they're making room for both Tisdol and Kaho.

 

[aaronvol]

You never want to say this kind of thing because people jump all over you...but I was never impressed with his film all that much. I am not surprised...plus, I think that the secondary is going to be tough to break into next year.

 

[DonDiego]

Sure hope the young man lands in the best spot for him.

 

[Vol Main]

Art, we hardly knew you.

 

[LordVOLdemort]

Wish the best for him. At least they made the trip and broke it to him in person.

 

[Roustabout]

Art, we hardly knew you.

VFL baby!

 

[vegasvolfan]

This plus we have a lot of DBs when you include this class and he only has so much PT left

 

[RollerVol]

the staff asked him to rethink his commitment...

GO BIG ORANGE...BEAT THE HOOSIERS!

That sounds real familiar in our current situation. Good thing the coaching staff is catching wind of those type of rankings.

Yeah he apparently had a very underwhelming year, a big drop off in production, and seemed to get worse. I hate it for him too, because by most accounts this kid and his family were all Vol.

 

[FBtime]

With Taylor and Thompson entering their junior year we need quality freshmen to come in and learn from them and be ready to take over as sophomores. A JC CB at this point would be for depth only so I can see why it would be a mutual decision.
