New commit: 4-star lineman Dominic Bailey

[Gandalf]

Looks like Pruitt and company came back from that "weekend off" pretty strong

 

[Orangeredblooded]

Don't worry.
Now that he committed to TN, Rivals will drop his ranking. Probably replace him with another fake recruit that claims a Bama offer.

This is a great get from what I saw from the offer list, wait..no offer from Alabama?

 

[CountVolcula]

Hopefully he likes eating Offensive Linemen medium rare

Welcome to Big Orange country young man!...Can't wait to see you wearing orange and white and kicking butt!

Lol.
Very good get. But we both know Rivals will drop him - their TN antibump

Kid should have tweeted a Bama offer before committing to us, Rivals would have bumped him to a five star.
Still can't believe they rated a kid that didn't exist because the fake account claimed a Bama offer.
And some people still believe the ranking system is legit

Article mentions he will probably switch to Guard. I think he may be a bit small for Guard and would rather have him as a DL.

Is 6'3" big enough for a Guard in the SEC?

His height is fine, but he'll have to put on some size before he gets on campus.

Lol, shhhhh, don’t let the secret out, star ranking on it’s own is, well vanilla. Depends on what a coach’s scheme is and how well that player fits into his system. Doesn’t matter the player’s star rating, but the intangibles that a true coach is looking for what will fit. Some just have stars in their eye, lol.

He’s a DL imo.

 

[CornFlake]

That's what a brick looks like!

don't want bricks now...need blocks...

 

[njvols]

4 star? Don't want

I bet Rivals is double checking the validity of players now, after the fake recruit from knoxville this past week.

Callahan said he will be a dl

He's a junior in HS, right? He's still a growing boy. I wonder if these young recruits get any development assistance from their future college.

 

[GameTime]

Keep the DL coming....

Need to take some more time off then.

What a great question! Anybody know?

As far as I know, the only thing they can receive until signed is a detailed workout and diet regimen.
Which can be huge if followed

I would think they could reach out to the S&C coach and get some information about the program being implemented, and something as far as nutritional guidelines. I'm not sure if that would be a violation or not. I was watching the QB1 documentary on Netflix the other day, some of these high school facilities would be on par with some D-1 schools.

This is impressive. It really is. Pruitt is recruiting like a program that has been winning and competing for championships... not like a program with two consecutive losing seasons for the first time in a very long time.

Dooley's 3 straight losing seasons (including the bowl loss) were a very long time ago?

 

[JCHateSteve]

Awesome, got to have DL in the next class.

 

[KBVol]

Hope we’re in on the top DLs in the country. We need to be competing for and getting some of the DL guys that Bama and Clemson recruit and normally sign. This kid looks like a good pickup, but we need the elite DL prospects to commit to us.
