We are even #7 on ESPN's rankings!

Football Class Rankings - ESPN

A long way to go, but I think we should finish top 5 in Scout, 247, Rivals and top 10 on ESPN as we should have quantity and quality in our class.

 

[GOATeric14berry]

I think were 3rd on rivals after they scout jackson and johnson.

johnson wont count toward it since hes class of 13

 

[OrangeDog]

johnson wont count toward it since hes class of 13

you are SO on top of things!

Since Johnson counts towards the 2013 class, will that give us enough points on Rivals to knock Vandy out of the top 20?

This is a legit question.

We are fifty points behind them but even if we jump them we would only push them to 20.

when orlando brown commits tomorrow we will jump florida for 3rd on rivals with 1210 points and only be 2 points behind 2nd place texas a&m...

Hurd will not get his 5th star.

 

[volnpowell]

247 has Hurd as a 5 star. I had not looked earlier, have they had him a 5 star for a while?

Yes

 

[92volalum]

Its great to have such a strong early start but these polls are useless at this point. Ex bama is 17 n 13 n the links.. I will take all bets on if they finish outside of top 3 as long as saban is the coach..

Go vols

Why?

that's a big negative on the "useless at this point" comment. Yes, Bama will finish in the top 3 most likely, but right now perception is in our favor. Being in the top 5 with recruiting momentum is a great selling point to high profile kids as the recruiting season progresses.

For the Vols, having 3 losing seasons in a row, we can take any kind of momentum we can get right now. And being highly ranked early by these sites is not "useless" by any means.

Not getting a 5* because he doesn't camp? Color me stupid, but doesn't that crush every ounce of credibility Rivals would hope to have? Funny, because I remember DeAnthony Arnett talking about how political the whole recruiting rankings were.
