'22 TN QB Ty Simpson (Alabama commit)

[RDU VOL#14]

IF we somehow land Simpson, this would be the biggest recruiting land for a Tennessee head coach since when? Not just about his ranking, but for a new staff and where our program is right now.. I really think this would be the most important commit we’ve had in a really long time.

I agree. Not even just the talent level, but what it will symbolize to other recruits that he chose us over 3 CFP teams, aTm couldve been. Him coming on board could be our biggest recruiting tool.

Where did Austin say he is not going to Martin?

In last night’s Chat.

He also said that could change. Austin isn’t going to give anything away unless it’s NOT UT.

What’s your felling on this?

 

[Bruce Wayne]

I’d guess that nobody will know if Austin is going until the day of. Then we’re going to see him there and all know.

Definitely. Bailey was a huge pickup for Pruitt but I don’t think it really compares to landing a top in state guy with the sanctions we have looming over us

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Hubbs was asked about his feelings on Ty

And yet, Ty would never lead them to believe that he was picking TN if he were.
sleight of hand

 

[coskramer]

Austin isnt going to Martin unless Ty tells him he is going to TN.

Now ranked number 23 in the country on Rivals

Wonder why the tweet got deleted?

Didn't want to give us false hope or didn't want to tip his hand. One or the other.

 

[LittleVol]

If a staff can't get their #1 target in their home state to at least delay their announcement and consider them in one month, it doesn't bode well for their recruiting abilities.

So Ty did delay it...

Austin isnt going to Martin unless Ty tells him to.

FYP

I’m full in on the conspiracy. Is the one nobody sees coming on this one

With all of the ruckus around AP not going to the announcement, I think he will probably hang back regardless of what he knows. He seems genuinely intent on protecting the kid's privacy.

Definitely signficant. Potentially paradigm shifting recruitment.
Simpson has the "Chosen One" vibe to him.

I'd like to see him raise the level of play of his subpar teammates at Martin Westview.

AP seems close to this one. I agree here. My AP interpretation is good, or average. It's Bama based on tea leaves.

There is a guy on here that seems to think I have an unhealthy obsession with Alabama. Lol, those that spend hours daily on an internet message board discussing TN are likely to despise our oldest, most hated inbred rivals.

Ill add this. If kid goes to Toilettown, Red Clay USA - he's the enemy.

Agreed. I can forgive Clemson but not Alabama. You just don't do that, if you grow up a Tennessee fan.

I do enjoy Alabama though. Regularly every morning after breakfast, and usually at lunch. Alabama is just a part of life.

Hate to admit it, but this is where I am too.

He's surely not gonna utter the words 'i pick bama' in that venue, in front of that audience, right?

He could pick Clemson; while still not ideal, that wouldn't draw the same amount of ire as the other would.

But he wants to play in the SEC.

So it's us.

As a parent, if my child ever uttered the words to me 'It's Bama'. I'm not sure how I could recover. There are so many great schools, and on one hand you want to be proud. It canr be the color, its uglier than sin?! It isnt academics, mouthbreathing happens there.

I would be happy to see my kid happy....but my heart would literally break to see that crimsin. No to mention, my wife's side are all Auburn grads.

If Heup pulls this kid, we can count on him hand picking his QB every year, moving forward.

 

[BruinVol]

Following the bama rivals guy and if he covers the announcement is key if AP doesn’t let his plans be known

 

[Guide On 50]

I hope we are not going to judge Heup over this kid. That is just silly.

DITTO

 

[SSVol]

Heup is playing this one with house money. Nobody expects UT, so losing him is expected. If he wins it's major publicity.

He will drop to a high 3* once he commits to UT
