Tennessee: Sources tell FootballScoop Florida director of player personnel Drew Hughes has accepted the same position at Tennessee. Well before his time at Florida, Hughes worked at Alabama as a recruiting specialist when Jeremy Pruitt was serving as director of player development.

Shocking isn't it, it's almost like he can do two jobs at once.

Apparently he is what held their recruiting together for the past few years, which gives UT a very valuable route into Florida high schools.

Combine that with his and sherrers experience in GA, we are looking good in at least three sec recruiting hotbeds. Four if you count the full staffs connections in bama. Things should be trending upward as far as recruiting.

If he helps with recruiting in the state of Florida, then he will be well worth it.

Held our recruiting together ?

Are you on drugs ?

 

[MR_VOL]

I guess my question is.....how does Hughes compare to Austin Thomas? It sounds like Hughes is as good if not better since he is "connected" with Florida high schools/recruits.

Good.

This side benefit alone constitutes a worthwhile hire.
