[5 ***** star]

LOL at Amiri Hawkins. went to high school with him. Man, our instate talent is not all that abundant

first 3 are 4 stars IMO, the rest are 3 stars, maybe some 2 stars near the bottom

 

[flowd82]

Blur, I think you have Mobley too high. Rest of list is nice, but JMO Mobley is too high.

 

[jacobyvoln27]

Allright do you believe we our locks with any of these guys??

 

[BibleHillVol]

Keep an eye on up and coming LB from Riverside High School in Decaturville, TN. Nat Parham. We be at UT Jr. Day in a few weeks. Great kid and very athletic. Would love to see him do well.

 

[BIGGIEVOL2]

We better land Mathers..That dude is the real deal!!!

 

[BIGGIEVOL2]

first 3 are 4 stars IMO, the rest are 3 stars, maybe some 2 stars near the bottom

Mathers will be a 4*

 

[OCIVol]

seems to be another good year on the OL in-state. Still is very good. Jelks seems to be solid. Brandon Hill is a monster who already has an Ole Miss offer. People keep saying Graham Shuler is legit. And Guillmero is already committed to Clemson. they will all (except Still) prolly have to earn an offer at camp like Crowder and Downs did last year though cuz we should be able to be very picky on the OL.

TN does not produce a great number of skill position players, but year in and year out, we put out good players on the OL.

i wish one of those DEs i've never heard of (Azibuke, Baron) would turn out to be good cuz we are gonna need to take a few DEs this year.

and it sucks there seems to be no in-state TEs of note. we need em and there is usually 1 solid one every year in TN.

 

[gnm53108]

And 4 DT`s.

Half of next years class should be spent on the front seven.

 

[LaTechVol]

Is Will Gross a good one up there in TN? Would we take him as a QB?

 

[therickbol]

Mathers will be a 4*

It would be nice if he was but it will be very unlikely for him to be that high on the initial rankings for the 2012 class.

 

[mrrockytoprowdy]

Mobley won't be a Vol for sure. He has major character issues that got him suspended in the playoffs last year with his team being the #1 seed. He has incredible speed, but not a Vol.

You cant possibly tell me Darrius Darden-Box from hillsboro in Nashville TN isnt an elite corner. He is small but plays aggresive. Seen him this season, he will be a sleeper in the class of 2012 been starting since soph. would have played freshman year if Eric Gordon wouldnt have been their.
