'27 TX LB Cooper Witten

[drvenner]

Wanna feel old?

I do every day.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

I think we're a long shot here, but I hope to be proved wrong. I think he'll end up at Texas.

Unfortunately I feel the same

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Unfortunately I feel the same

Too early for me to form an opinion. I think it is wide open.

Wanna feel old?

I thought this was encouraging. There is more than a bit of hope for us in this.

At least if he doesn’t go here itd be to a texas team, better that than uga or bama

 

[knoxvol52]

Ohio State is a team to look out for, I hear that Witten really like James Lauranitis the OSU linebackers coach. Just remember you heard it here first.

Booo.

James Larengitis can go kick rocks

 

[JacketVol]

He could be a Haden like kid if he’s not careful or a Dillan Bates here. Not gonna worry about the ones we don’t get.

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

I guess we forget about landing him now.

 

[Vol423]

I guess we forget about landing him now.

They just did that in an attempt to sully the Witten name. They have no shot.

A motivated Mark Stoops will certainly pull the 5 star away from Texas and his dad’s alma mater!

He needs to learn to motivate his players to stay away from the concession stands during games first.

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

A motivated Mark Stoops will certainly pull the 5 star away from Texas and his dad’s alma mater!

What about the one at Kentucky, the narly snarly whiney one?

 

[OrangeMoundTNVol]

A motivated Mark Stoops will certainly pull the 5 star away from Texas and his dad’s alma mater!

He’s locked in

Calling My Shot: Commitment predictions for top 2027 prospects in the Mid-South

It remains early in the recruitment of Rivals’ No. 1 LB Cooper Witten, who will be back in Norman on Sept. 6 for the Sooners’ showdown with Michigan. Oklahoma is one of several top contenders for the blue-chip defender along with Georgia, Ohio State, Clemson, Texas A&M, Texas and Tennessee, where father Jason starred in the early 2000s.

Witten was in Rocky Top for the Big Orange Barbecue in May and will return for the Georgia game next month. Josh Heupel and the Volunteers have been working feverishly to keep the Tennessee tradition in the Witten Family and have staying power in this recruitment.

“It’s been great to see the program from a different lens this summer,” Witten said. “Coach Heupel has a clear vision of what he wants his program to be and stands for all the right things. Since June 15, my family and I have felt the love from the whole staff.”

Prediction: Tennessee

Obviously a long way to go in this one but gotta love where we stand early on. Witten (No. 1 LB) and Omarii Sanders (No. 3 LB) would be an insane haul in '27.

Willie Inge can recruit.

Nice paywall.

Visiting for the UGA game

 

[Vol8188]

Saw him live tonight and he’s impressive. On one play he just ripped the ball out of the RBs hands. Another play he catches a corner route, runs through the DBs attempted tackle, and then outruns the rest of a really good team.

VQ

Defensively in the 2027 class, Cooper Witten will receive plenty of attention this weekend. The Vols made the most of getting him to campus for the Big Orange BBQ in May. This weekend will serve as another opportunity in the relationship building stage. Witten likes plenty about the Vols, outside of the fact that his father is a legend in Knoxville, but he is also getting plenty of attention from other top programs across the country, such as Texas A&M, Notre Dame, Clemson, and Oklahoma, so Tennessee will look to keep stacking visits starting with this weekend.

 

[EastTNVol95]

Sounds like JP Peace may be the ace up our sleeve here if we ultimately win out.

AP and Matt Ray said Cooper and him spent a lot of time on the visit together. Families are very close and even vacation together.
