So is anyone feeling confident that Ty Simpson picks UT?
After the coaching change, I've thought he's likely to end up going to Dabo's house.
But, there is a glimmer of hope in me that somehow JH pulls him back w/ the QB-centric offense and some great WRs.
there's one point i keep going back to...and i don't know that this makes me confident, but it at least is keeping the door open for me....
Ty Simpson was ready to commit to Pruitt, Weinke and Chaney....and the putrid offense we put on the field for the past two years. i mean, it was a done deal supposedly.
now, i get the relationship aspect to that recruitment. but i just find it hard to believe that you bring in this staff, with it's offensive background, and it makes Tennessee that much LESS desirable of place. it was said many times that Ty was always looking for reasons to pull the trigger on TN.
for a top rated QB, hard not to think that playing in that offensive system wouldn't be a good reason............so if this staff made up any ground at all in the relationship category, i say there's a chance....and it's why he hasn't ruled us out completely. otherwise, it would have been easier for
all involved, to just leave TN out of the picks. there'd be no point in including TN and stringing along everyone if we weren't a factor....it would also take all the sting out of it when he does make the pick.
factor all that together, and yeah, i think it means we do have a shot....a real shot.
