Coming this weekend and now has a really impressive offer list. @allvolrecruiting what do you think about him, is he a potentially elite prospect next cycle?

Never was able to watch a Bearden game last year and I like watching full games of corners but he has all the tools you want to see physically and athletically. There’s a reason everyone is interested in him. Will be watching a couple Bearden games on NFHS this fall. They got a nice team

From Rivals:

Clemson, Texas A&M, Notre Dame, Ole Miss and others are some front-runners for the 2026 four-star cornerback from Chattanooga (Tenn.) McCallie School but another school has now joined that top list. After seeing Indiana in person and getting a better relationship with coaches there including coach Curt Cignetti, the Hoosiers are a real contender to watch.

No Tennessee on his list. Has some good offers.

He’s silly if he thinks Cignetti will stay at Indiana.
Watch out for Florida with him

Cignetti’s age may be a deterrent for Florida. At least I hope it is, because he could turn them around fast.

I thought about that. He’s 63.
Saban retired at 72.

I think age is exactly why he would jump ASAP.
Gets to Florida at 64-65 years old. He could coach there 6-10 years and retire.

Let’s hope that doesn’t happen.

Flip side: He’s 8-0 and currently a hero at a school where there’s very little pressure. At 63, does he want to give up what he has built at Indiana after just one season to jump into a pressure cooker like Florida? They fired Mullen a year after winning the East.

Who knows.

If you look at his HC career. He always leaves while he’s wanted or when he’s “hot”.

He earns 4.35 million at IU. Maybe it is the right place.

Hell, Florida may not have an opening. They could beat LSU and/or Ole Miss. Both are in the Swamp. And they will beat FSU. You can’t fire Napier if he goes 7-5 against that schedule.

Yup.
I think that Kentucky game was their “turnaround “ game.

The freshman QB is getting them to play a little better and Napier is showing some of that offensive skills that he had at Louisiana.

Ole Miss and LSU are very beatable rn.

Beating LSU and Ole Miss helps Tennessee because those are the teams we’re in contention with for an at large CFP spot. Beating Texas likely does nothing for Tennessee.

It helps keep him in fla a little longer. Ole piss is probably going to lose to uga and texas has a&m

Whatever happened here? Kinda forgot about this kid until I saw that he and Tyreek King are cousins and attend Catholic together. Did he just have no interest in Tennessee at all?
