'20 GA ILB Desmond Tisdol (Auburn commit)

[LA Vol]

Not a take for Auburn right now. They won't let him sign early and we're telling him he needs to sign early to assure a spot. Unless they're at the top of the board, guys who're waiting until February are taking a big risk. We're trying to nail down our core class on ESD, then be opportunistic after the bowl.

Guys holding out hope for another school are always a risk. You can't count on them until we have the signed LOI in hand. Dee Beckwith is much the same. He doesn't want to sign early because he's hoping Bama might make room for him (and his brother).

That's what I mean, seems the staff is really high on Kaho, wonder if there is a scenario where we would take both?

I would hope so. I really like both, especially if they can convince Tisdol to play RB if Whitehead doesn't join

Then getting him to sign early is massive. Vol.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

wow. this throws a wrench into things if he signs with UT right?

Don’t think so. Gonna get Kaho regardless

 

[bignewt]

Crazy we are in a time where you have to talk kids into playing RB

We’re going to lock up the majority of our class in December and then go all in for Hardy in Jan and Feb imo

If we get Holiday and Tisdol does that leave DB out?

 

[SLICKYINC]

Multi sport, multi position kid. The staff will find what best suits him in practice.

 

[LA Vol]

He has a spot now. If he waits till February, we may not have room. Bama has fewer spots than we do, so it doesn't seem likely Saban will find one for him, but you never know. Both UT and UF will let him play two sports and are willing to take his brother.

If Beckwith doesn't sign with us on the 18th (which he says he's waiting) I don't see him being part of our class in February.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I believe this guy is a Vol by early signing day.

I hope not..but if the coaches wabt him that bad...whatever..I hate Awbarn. If he doesn't sign early, I hope they don't waste anymore time on him and find somebody else.


If this dude loves that craphole so much he should PWO there.


Another thing...even if he signs with UT...is he gonna be one of those dudes that looks to transfer every chance they get?

 

[VFL10]

This guy is goooooood.

That really sounds good for us but this article does not mention anything about potential grade issues. I thought this was the reason Auburn wanted him to wait until Feb. Do you think Pruitt will risk the loss of a scholarship if he signs with us on the 18th and doesn't qualify?

 

[31VFL]

Niebuhr said that he wouldn’t count out Auburn even if he doesn’t OV this weekend. He said he has been there a ton already.

If they give him the green light anytime before he signs he's going to AU. If not, he's a Vol

 

[HalfullVol]

wasn't it mentioned here this guy might have grade issues?

If so, wouldn't the staff wait until February signing to better evaluate his academic situation?

Was mentioned early on. But recently has been said that it wasn't bad enough that it couldn't be overcome.

 

[tatervol]

He’s a Vol then. AU wanted him to wait until Feb

Let’s go!

 

[daugag02]

Him signing early is a really smart decision. There's a real chance both UT and AU will be out of room if he waits until January.

Pruitt could also be trying to force Auburn's hand. Make them sign him early and use up another of their spots... especially if grades are a concern.

Could be, especially after what happened with the Hardy deal.

Looks like this is over and looking very Orange and White!

Bass how worried are you about this kid being “hell bent” on being a RB?..has he stated he would be willing to go over to the defense if being a RB doesn’t work out here for him?

I didn't realize he was determined to play RB.

 

[UTSuave’]

I didn't realize he was determined to play RB.

Wasn’t there a player on the defensive side that wanted a chance to play running back?...I thought it was this guy?..or do I have him mixed up with someone else
