'24 TN WR Amari Jefferson (Alabama commit)

[NeverWe'llSever]

Him not picking Tennessee wouldn’t upset me. What really gets me is the thought of an instate player picking Bama over Tennessee. That just triggers me, honestly. And it’s a Chattanooga kid. 1.5 hours from campus. It’s not like it’s Memphis and it’s 5.5 hours away with lots of SEC schools closer to him. Puke.

Bama lost a 5 star receiver to Auburn. Maybe not a coincidence.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Know I probably shouldn't say this, but after watching their respective tapes, I'd prefer Wingo. Thrilled with both, but of I could only have one, it would be Wingo.

You are just stating facts. I like Jefferson but he isn’t in Wingos league.

 

[SweetasSoda]

If he prefers AL then I want someone that prefers Tennessee. He will cease to exist for me. Simple

Yep.

You mean you prefer the player that is universally viewed as the better prospect lol?

It ain’t that serious, man

The whole in state deal can be complex. Hate it when we offer and they don’t have that orange feeling, but hate it worse when we don’t push for them and they go elsewhere and produce.

I can understand some pressure for him to sign on at a high profile position with one 5 star in the boat and another still looking. Locals and legacies having to become backups and cheerleaders has to be an unsettling potential at the home school. Don’t have to be a coward to let that in to the selection calculation.

IDK. Hatred for AL is generations deep.

There are 5*s at AL. He just wants to brag that he played for Saban. He’ll transfer if it doesn’t work out for him.

I said when Pruitt $h!t on the Baylor kid a couple years ago Tennessee would regret it. I realize that the kid he did it to ended up leaving Va Tech but so did 80%of Pruitts UTs class. The message is “you don’t $h!t” where you eat & Baylor has never been a pipeline to Tennessee. I doubt that kid has an ounce of influence on AJ but it does with faculty, etc at Baylor. It was a terrible decision Fulmer let Cornbread make.

Must have missed this convo, what kid was it? Sorry.

I don’t recall his name. He didn’t pan out at Va Tech but neither did the guys Pruitt choose over him. Pruitt led him on until signing night eve and then cut him. Family had UT gear, etc for the signing event the next day. You don’t do people in state like that especially at a school like Baylor. I damn sure know he wouldn’t have done it at a similar school in Alabama…. Except they don’t have one equal to Baylor there.

 

[barrylee]

$9.99 for a quote that tells us nothing except that he doesn’t know in a gratuitous amount of worlds

Why do people keep bringing up 9.99? Are you paying it? If you are stop, if not why do you care?

I for one am grateful for the ones who are paying it and bringing info here.

he would've paid that player to go to auburn.

On Jefferson, heading into his visit to Tuscaloosa, sources on both sides of the fence continue to say Bama is in good shape with the Tennessee native, who is expected to also play baseball in college.

-Bama On3

If this is true, hopefully we get wingo

 

[JacketVol]

I really do not like Baylor. McCallie Blue is better.

 

[Jackcrevol]

If this is true, hopefully we get wingo

in that video it looked like bama when he was talking football, and tn when talking baseball. and when he said praphrasing, its about football. I knew it was Bammer

 

[SmokeMSJ]

Tommy Rees ROFL!!!!

 

[Orange.]

That nega also prefers one to both, which is the aim he is taking exception to.

 

[Orange.]

Jefferson and Wingo were never a either/or situation.

Exactly.

 

[Jackcrevol]

I think it’s easy to understand the allure of Bama and to want to go there, but this is not the same Bama. I think he’ll figure that out this year and his first few years on campus.

and that the oompa loompa isnt his buddy.

 

[DaddyChad]

We have way too many Bama bootlickers in state.
