“We have a group chat going and we talk to each other in that every day. We’ve really become a tight-knit group. It’s shown when we’re together or on Twitter posts. Everybody is really close and it’s a really good thing for our future,” he said.
“The two biggest guys everybody wants right now and we’re recruiting hard are Darnell Wright and Eric Gray. We’ve been recruiting them hard. We (the 2019 commits) talk to those guys everyday. They’re two really good players. They could help us out a lot if they come to Tennessee.”
As for Lampley, Tennessee’s plan for the Nashville native is to play guard or center in Knoxville. Before he enrolls in May, Lampley’s focus is to continue to work in the weigh room and learn the details of playing center.
“I’ll be an inside guy,” he said.
“They talked about how important it is to learn how to snap because really they want all the inside guys coming in to learn how to play center right away because it’s such a valuable position on the offensive line.”
