'20 TN DE Jay Hardy (Auburn commit)

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Don't see why we can't unless we bring in some grad transfers between now and August.

We’ll never sign 25 if we let Bama and Ga sign em all first, Newt!

We do that, and we’re probably Blueshirting again at the end.

I hope if we do get some grad transfers that they are better than our recent selections...

I'm sure we can scrape up some two star in state recruits late.

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

We heard any early chatter on numbers for ‘20?
We gonna roll with another full class of 25+ ?

If Harris makes it in, we will be using two spots in 2020 with Harris and Kenny Solomon. Leaves us 23 spots without blueshirting.

The most notable moment of his career was going on his recruiting trip to Florida in UT gear.

I agree, but I didn't mean it as a shot on the guy. He just never really took off.

I just remember how he was a physical specimen but just couldn't produce.

And in the early 2000s we got Jason Hall out of McCallie.

And in the early 80s we got a kid named Reggie White out of Howard.

Let me tell you how much I love the fact that we’re burning a spot on Solomon

Big time take, I can pronounce this name without my phonics definitions

Hardy takes a tough load of classes at McCallie so he is prepared for the next level academically.
"It helps," Hardy said. "Like I'm going to be doing engineering and physics and all my math classes which prepares me for college."

He should've been put at linebacker from the start. He was never a guy that would put on the weight to be an effective DE, but he still had some good athleticism. Keeping him at DE just wasted his career. I think the biggest he ever got was 250 lbs.

He just never had the burst for DE or the feet for LB.
He was a FB imo

We land Hardy and Cowan, they will go a long way in helping us forget Eboigbe or Norton. Hardy is the #4 SDE, Cowan is the #6 SDE. They both would be BIIIIG gets; and I believe both like Knoxville and the program as of right now.

I sincerely think we have our pass rushers for '20 already locked up. Davis, Baron (will maybe end up a stand up OLB a la Darrell Taylor), Hardy, and Cowan. That's huge considering we didn't take one in '19

Oh, yeah, most definitely. Adding Davis and Baron to those other two, not to mention the Toll kid from Ark, and things start getting downright boss and savage. Best DE haul in the country, if we can pull it off.

I am trying to contain my anticipation for what our recruiting staff is going to accomplish this year. I believe we will all have Big grins on our faces.

TN in it big. KY a sleeper. Kid also like Clemson.
