QB Jonathan Crompton 6-3/205 4.8 40 Waynesville, NC - Crompton, who has over 15 scholarship offers, completed 114 of 220 passes this past season for 1,650 yards and 15 scores. He threw just five interceptions. Jonathan has scholarship offers from Tennessee, Virginia, North Carolina, Duke, NC State, Wake Forest, Clemson, Virginia Tech, Nebraska, and Arizona State. It is well known that Tennessee is holding a strong lead for Crompton at this point in time. Jonathan says that he will wait a while to make his decision and it is being rumored that he is waiting on a possible documentary of his recruitment. His is being widely regarded as the #1 QB in this year's recruiting class.
RB Toney Baker 5-11/215 4.45 40 Jamestown, NC - Many are calling him the best running back in next year's class. UT is looking good so far with him and Baker has expressed interest in the past about the positives of playing college ball with Jonathan Crompton.
OLB Luther Brown II 6-1/227 4.57 40 Lakewood, CA - This kid is a stud linebacker and will definately be in the top 5 nationally and Rival 100 member. Right now the presumed teams to beat are Miami and Southern California, but it is still early. Keep an eye on this kid!
OT Dan Doering 6-6/280 5.0 40 Barrington, IL - Fulmer would love to get the signature of this big time lineman and look for UT to be hot on this kids trail all the way up till signing day of next year. He's being recruited very well as of now and he has said good things about UT.
TE Dajleon Farr 6-6/235 4.5 40 Galena Park, TX - This kid will definately be top 5 in the nation at the TE position if not #1. He's really good and UT is recruiting him hard. Unfortunately LSU is considered to have a good lead at this point in time. Let's hope that UT can atleast get him to visit.
WR/TE Malcolm Kelly 6-4/200 4.5 40 Longview, TX - Here's another guy UT is going after really hard. He will be top 5 nationally at the WR position most likely and UT is looking pretty good so far according to statements from Kelly.
ILB/OLB Derek Nicholson 6-2/228 4.55 40 Winston Salem, NC - It seems that linebacker is a point of strong interest for UT coaches next year and Nicholson is another huge linebacker prospect from border state North Carolina. Derek is a great prospect and UT wants him bad, but right now in-state schools UNC and NC State along with FSU are considered his leaders. UT is in there, but not as thick as the other three. I would actually be surprised if he chose anywhere other than Florida State because that is where his older brother is playing.
OT/DT Michael Oher 6-5/330 4.9 40 Memphis, TN - Ohr is a great in-state prospect that UT just now offered. He is obviously a big guy and he has received high marks from the coaches. His early leaders are assumed by his high school coach to be Ole Miss and Tennessee. He is a key recruit because UT needs to snag as much top in-state talent as possible.
OLB/TE Ryan Reynolds 6-2/220 4.6 40 Las Vegas, NV - Considered as one of the top linebackers in the nation, Ryan Reynolds will be sought after by every major program in the country. This is no different for UT. Keeping with the trend of going after big time linebackers, UT would really like to land this kid. Oklahoma, however, is considered to be his early leader. I do emphasize early because, at this stage in the game, things change quickly.
OT Chris Scott 6-5/300 5.1 40 Lovejoy, GA - Many are considering this stud O-Lineman the top prospect coming out of Georgia this upcoming recruiting season. College coaches are drooling over this kid, and for good reason. Tennessee is in the hunt for him, but his early leaders are Florida State and Michigan with Florida State probably holding a slight edge over the Wolverines.
DE/DT Ekom Udofia 6-3/270 4.9 40 Scottsdale, AZ - I can't tell you all how big of a pickup this kid would be. Ekom is going to make some program very happy one of these days. He is a great prospect and is everything that college coaches look for in big time defensive ends. He claims no leaders right now, but many are assuming that Stanford (his brother is a freshman on their football team) and Southern California are his favorites. Academics are a big factor for Udofia as well, so this plays to the advantage of Stanford.
ATH/WR Derrick Williams 6-1/187 4.3 40 Greenbelt, MD - What can you say about Derrick Williams that hasn't already been said a thousand times? The kid is flatout amazing. He's just a great athlete that excels at any position he is put at. Many schools are in the running for Williams and Tennessee has a good shot as well. Derrick's high school coach is good friends with Larry Slade, so this bodes well for UT. He has also attended football camps at UT when Chris Leak was being recruited and he received high marks as a defensive back. Most are recruiting him as a wide receiver in college, however. Another positive to note for UT is that Derrick's older brother Dominique was recruited hard by UT a few years ago, but he eventually chose Mack Brown and North Carolina. Well, Dominique has told Derrick that if there is one thing that he has regretted, it is that he wish he would have chosen UT.
OLB/WR Travis Beckum 6-5/220 4.5 (electronic)/4.3 (handheld) 40 Oak Creek,WI - two year starter for powerhouse Oak Creek High School in Wisconsin. While being hampered by a nagging hamstring injury after the 3rd game of the season, Beckum still managed to record 98 tackles. These are impressive numbers considering that Beckum missed one whole game because of injury and only played the first half in six others because of blowouts. He is widely considered the best player in Wisconsin. Beckum was a Wisconsin all-state honoree as a linebacker in 2003. He has made several pre-season all-American teams and is considered among the top 100 recruits in the country heading into the 2004 season by, at least one, recruiting publication. It's going to be hard for me to see UT landing this kid. He wants to get out of Wisconsin, but he didn't really list UT among his favorites. It's still early though.
OT/DT Jamarcus Grant 6-5/315 5.06 40 Mullins, SC - considered South Carolina's top O-Line prospect and definately headed for a 4 star rating. Grant plans to camp at UT, Clemson, and South Carolina this summer. On defense Grant had 42 tackles, 12 tackles for loss, and 5 sacks at DT.
CB/RB Victor "Macho" Harris 6-0/185 4.45 40 Highland Springs,VA - one of 23 juniors named to the Rivals.com junior All-American team and is one of the nations best. Harris, who runs a 4.45-forty, was named first-team all-state as a junior. He rushed for 2,210 yards and 33 touchdowns on 185 carries. At cornerback, Harris picked off eight passes and had 45 tackles. Harris has not named any early leaders in his recruiting process. Harris will be a 4 star prospect. He could be the No. 1 prospect in the state of Virginia this fall, and is already a consensus top five selection in that state.
WR Nick Kyles 6-2/182 4.55 40 Milledgeville, GA - Named to the AAA all-state squad and also first team all-region and team MVP as a junior. Considered by many to be one of, if not THE, best WR in the state of Georgia for the class of 05'. He carries a 3.0 GPA, and has already taken the ACT, although he hasn't received his score just yet. The young receiver has no intentions of committing early saying he wants to wait and make sure he makes the right choice. In his junior year, Kyles caught 52 passes for 1,054 yards and 10 touchdowns. On defense he picked off five passes and returned one of those for a touchdown. Of course UGA is going to be near impossible to beat here.
OLB Brandon Logan 6-1/195 4.5 40 Lexington, KY - Recorded 82 tackles, seven tackles for loss, two forced fumbles and one sack as a sophomore for one of the Bluegrass State's top programs. Attended the Michigan camp the summer before his sophomore year and won the "Smokehouse Award" for fastest 40 time by a linebacker. He suffered an elbow injury as a junior, one that hindered him for much of the year, but still managed to record 58 tackles, three forced fumbles and a sack. Michigan will be tough to beat here.
OG/DT Malcolm Rawls 6-4/303 5.25 40 Memphis, TN - Earned All-Metro honors from the Memphis Commercial Appeal as a junior. Not only is Malcolm a great athlete, but hes also a dynamo in the classroom, where he maintains a weighted 4.6 GPA in honors engineering and has already tallied a 31 on the ACT.
Rawls has already drawn four major scholarship offers Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi State and Memphis. He's one of the best in Tennessee and the Vols would love to have him. As you can tell by his GPA, academics are a really big deal to Malcolm. He has no public leaders at this point in time.
WR Patrick Turner 6-5/210 4.55 40 Nashville, TN - A two-year starter, Turner earned all-state honors as a sophomore and junior. As a junior, Turner caught 56 passes for 955 yards and 12 touchdowns in leading the Cougars to an 8-3 record. He hauled in 56 receptions for 1,033 yards and 14 scores as a sophomore. Turner accomplished the majority of his junior season stats while being double and triple teamed. Turner's coach anticipates Florida, Miami, Tennessee, LSU and Alabama to be the top schools on his early list. Tennessee and Miami will be two of the camps that he will attend this summer. Turner is also solid in the classroom, sporting a 2.5 GPA. He is expected to be an easy qualifier.
DE/TE Everette Brown 6-4/235 4.6 40 Wilson, NC - Brown had 106 tackles and seven sacks as a junior on defense and 24 catches for 400 yards as a tight end on offense. He plays middle linebacker and tight end for his high school team, but most colleges are recruiting him on the defensive side of the ball. His early list of favorites includes Duke, Tennessee, Georgia, Miami, and UNC. Although Brown has only officially received offers from Duke and Tennessee, he is getting plenty of mail from all of his favorites plus schools such as Nebraska, Notre Dame, Virginia Tech, Maryland, Penn State and North Carolina State. He grew up a UNC fan, but he says that he has no leaders at this point.
ATH C.J. Byrd 6-3/185 4.55 40 North Augusta, SC - Byrd was an all-area and all-conference selection as a junior. The 6-foot-3, 184-pound Byrd caught 37 passes for 536 yards and two touchdowns, along with returning two kickoffs for 100-yard touchdowns this past season. He also led North Augustas defense with 92 tackles. Byrd is one of two South Carolina players being considered by ESPN's Tom Lemming for next year's US Army All-America Bowl game. Byrd has offers from Tennessee, LSU, Georgia, Virginia Tech, Auburn, South Carolina, Clemson, Maryland, Vanderbilt, Ole Miss and Illinois.
TE Jeff Cottam 6-7/255 4.8 40 Germantown, TN - Cottam was a member of Germantown's Class 5A state championship team as a junior. His brother, Brad, signed with the University of Tennessee in 2003. Last season Jeff caught 14 passes for 160 yards and four touchdowns from his tight-end spot, which isn't bad considering that his high school team runs a wishbone offense and doesn't pass often. Cottam says that he is only interested in playing TE in college and any mention of changing to another position would only hurt a school's chances with him. Many think that Tennessee has the inside edge for Jeff because of his older brother Brad already plays football for the Vols, but according to Jeff this may actually hurt UT chances. He wants playing time right away and if he comes to UT, Brad will only be a redshirt sophomore. He is still strongly considering UT though.
ATH Todd Cox 6-2/195 4.45 40 Memphis, TN - Was named to the Memphis Commercial Appeal's All-Metro team as a junior. Is also an all-state baseball player. Some are recruiting him to play running back and others, like USC, want him for outside linebacker, but for him it doesnt matter which position he plays in college. Distance from his home in Memphis is not an issue. Weather could play somewhat of a factor, but he is not eliminating any schools nor does he have a clear favorite right now. His likely official visits as of now are USC, Tennessee, LSU, Arkansas, and Miami. He will be going to team camps at Tennessee, Ole Miss, Arkansas and Memphis. Also, he has plans to attend the NIKE Football Training Camp in Baton Rouge, La. on May 2. He has offers from UNC, USC, LSU, Auburn, and Tennessee.
WR Mohamed Massaquoi 6-2/181 4.5 40 Charlotte, NC - Mohamed has been spectacular over the last two years. Last year alone, he had 87 receptions for over 1500 yards and 23 touchdowns. With his success, it is no surprise that he already has received official offers from UNC, Duke, NCSU, Maryland, Michigan, Tennessee, and Virginia. Massaquoi claims to have no favorites at this point in time, but the Florida Gators have a star QB that goes by the name of Chris Leak who used to have the luxury of tossing the football to this gifted young WR. It is being said that Leak is trying to convince Mohamed to head to Gainesville so they can once again play football together. Factors affecting his recruitment include location, success of the team, and playing time.
S Kenneth Phillips 6-2/195 4.43 40 Miami, FL - Was a Class 6A All-State selection as a junior, helping Carol City to the 6A title. Phillips is expected to be very highly ranked by national recruiting services. He had seven interceptions last season and had three as a sophomore. He returned two of his interceptions this past season for touchdowns, including a 100-yard return. He vertical jumped 37 inches at a combine at Carol City last year. So far he lists two early offers: from Tennessee and Rutgers. Don't expect Tennessee to get too far with this kid. He won't make it out of the state of Florida. My early guess is Miami.
RB Tony Wright 5-10/185 4.45 40 Fort Valley, GA - An all-state, all-region and all-county selection as a junior for Class 3A runner up. He has a 270 pound bench press and 390 pound squat. Wright put up ridiculous stats as a junior carrying the ball 267 times for 2,155 yards and 20 touchdowns. In the beginning Wright stated that if UGA offered, he would probably go ahead and commit, but then he got the scholly offer from Tennessee. Now Tony is thinking a little harder about it. However, if UGA does offer, which they probably will, I would assume that Wright would choose the Bulldogs. He said that he planned to attend camps at Florida and Georgia as well as the Nike camp at Georgia Tech in May.
WR Eric Huggins 6-3/186 4.5 40 Conway, SC - Earned all-conference and all-region honors as a junior. Last season Huggins racked up 51 catches for 932 yards and 14 touchdowns. Huggins will be a 4 star player with an outside shot at landing that 5th star. He is highly regarded as the best player coming out of South Carolina this year and Tennessee is just one of many schools that are heavily recruiting him. UT has made Huggins' early list of top 5 favorites along with Oklahoma, Clemson, Auburn, and Michigan. However, Oklahoma is considered the clear leader right now for Huggins because he has declared several times that the Sooners are his dream team. We'll see how it all plays out. He has already unofficially visited Tennessee for a spring practice and he will probably officially visit in the fall.
RB Toney Baker 5-11/215 4.45 40 Jamestown, NC - Many are calling him the best running back in next year's class. UT is looking good so far with him and Baker has expressed interest in the past about the positives of playing college ball with Jonathan Crompton.
OLB Luther Brown II 6-1/227 4.57 40 Lakewood, CA - This kid is a stud linebacker and will definately be in the top 5 nationally and Rival 100 member. Right now the presumed teams to beat are Miami and Southern California, but it is still early. Keep an eye on this kid!
