3* recruit wr from NC Corey Cooper which has offers from all over and is currently committed to louisville. He will probably come to TN if CHARLIE STRONG DOES.
If you hire Strong, it will be a great hire. You have my congratulations in advance, and I am looking forward to a really heated UF/UT rivalry.
However, holding back on recruits having accepted another job would be extremely unethical if not illegal. From what I have heard, that is not how Charlie rolls. Do you think you are hiring Lane Kiffen again?
I know I'm jumping the gun here, but it looks like Charlie Strong is out next coach. A guy in the rumors thread said recruits are already tweeting about UT visits if Strong is the guy.
Can we get any info from recruits on Strong and how he impacts our class in this thread? I'm not a big tweeter.
*Edit* So far:
Vic Wharton pulling for Strong.
Jalen Ramsey just saw Graham and is pleased the staff is changing.
I am going to start an annoying rumor, like so many other people do...
Strong is coming to U.T. In fact, his wife's uncle has a house in Knoxville. Also, Strong has property in Knoxville. Also, Strong is Pentecostal and his church in Lousiville has a sister church in Knoxville, so the move to Knoxville will be an easy one.
On a serious note, I doudt Strong or any coach at a good program will come to U.T. They are acting interested in U.T. so they can get a raise at their current job.
It makes no sense for anyone from Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, Nebraska to come to U.T. Our recruiting in Tennessee is worse than those states recruiting. It would also be a lateral move, not a move up the ladder.
No one from Florida State or Miami is coming to U.T. either. They may act interested in the job, so they can get a raise at their current job though.
We will end up with Butch Jones from Cincinnati. To him, U.T. would be a move up the ladder....
