'20 JUCO DE Jordan Davis (Mississippi State commit)

Need to get Mama on campus to have a chance. We need an elite DE in this class after not landing one last year. Missing Ray hurt us. We need to get Davis or Azeez. Doesn't look like we're landing Azeez, Davis wants to play with Carvin and apparently almost flipped on his visit until mama vetoed it. Need to put on a full court press if we have a chance.

Mama is all bama and for whatever reason that is, it ain't changing. Not worth the effort.

If not Davis or Azeez, then who? Maybe someone emerges that we aren't talking about yet? I'm just concerned about DE and corner going forward. We need Horn and a big time DE in this class.


New faces will emerge at every position before the season is over and signing day comes around. Always happens, always will. I would wager that 4 or 5 of the current commits don't end up signing for one reason or another. Some will be asked to look around, some will leave us for someone they perceive to be the prettier girl, some won't make the grades, some will get in trouble (not that I think any are headed that way, just that it happens from time to time). Some new prospects will show up that we've heard little to nothing about. It's recruiting, normal stuff.

This all year, every year.

Yeah, I'm starting to worry that Dixon is a flip risk. Really hope we get Emmons

Exactly and every program in the country deals with this

Stop worrying. If Dixon flips we get Emmons or another we haven't heard of yet. Practice the faith you preach.

If it's trading Dixon for Emmons that's a win for Tennessee. I'd like to get both though.

Davis isn't even a possibility in my mind unless he and mama visit. And she seems very much opposed to even giving Tennessee a chance. Almost like an outside force is at work on her decision? 🤔
 
So if we miss on Davis what are our other options?

Azeez Olajuri
Madison Norris
Kayode Oladele
Randy Charlton

Or taking a bigger OLB like we like to do like

Adam Anderson
Caleb Johnson
Caleb Kelly

The good thing is we will probably be able to redshirt whoever we take as long as Johnson and Butler work out.

add to that 4-5 we haven't heard about yet.

Lol. Azeez is a take no matter what. Best edge rusher in this region. I would take him if he wanted to commit and not give one single damn what Jordan Davis and his momma did. Oladele honestly I like as much if not more than Davis as well.

Anderson is another one of those kids that you take no matter what your numbers look like.
 
Idk why y'all are speculating so hard. Emmons hasn't said anything

Because it's the offseason. And a game changing RB just became available that has a tie to the program. We were Emmons leader for a portion of his recruitment. No reason to think Tennessee or Emmons wouldn't want to kick the tires and see where both parties are at. Besides, with Dixon taking a visit to Clemson, it's better to be proactive looking for alternatives than sit around until a kid potentially flips.

Yeah it's not like we weren't in it for the kid the first time around. Not to mention even with the potential we have coming in, we only have one proven RB currently.
