'26 VA RB Savion Hiter (Michigan commit)

[Hulavol]

Fellas, y’all need to relax. If he was a Vol three weeks ago, he’s a Vol now. And he was, and is.

Wiltfong on the 28th...

Michigan has always been one of the top contenders, Tennessee has surged this year. Around Knoxville they’ve felt very confident at times with Hiter. From the relationship with coach De’Rail Sims to the recent draft picks of Jaylen Wright and Dylan Sampson (SEC Offensive Player of the Year) to going over Josh Heupel’s past offensive success throughout his career and the magnitude of the running back in his scheme, the Vols have become a very enticing option.

With Michigan, Hiter has always been the top overall target regardless of position. The NFL-style scheme and the way the running back is featured, the long-standing relationship with Tony Alford and vibe around the program have always been things that have excited him about the program.

Beyond all that, Hiter is keeping his process close to the vest.

AP was at 58% on the 28th.

From July 29th...

Finish the drill…

I don’t really understand the appeal of Michigan in the post-Harbaugh era. Hopefully they suck for a 2nd straight year and then maybe Hiter will rethink his choice (if it is Michigan).

Michigan is also due for mountains of bad karma on account of that recent NCAA fake penalty garbage. I hope Hiter gets far away from it.

From Michigan on July 31...

Hiter locked in his Aug. 19 commitment date recently, and it still feels like his decision will come down to Michigan and Tennessee. The top-ranked, elite running back prospect out of Mineral (Va.) Louisa County High is the No. 8 recruit in the nation. He’s keeping his decision extremely quiet, so any sweeping conclusions or predictions around his recruitment are probably misplaced at this point. With that said, a final decision is approaching quickly. Michigan’s relationship with Hiter keeps the Wolverines in very strong contention here.

Probably based off a curve. That's how I got through high school.

Mine was called a V with a bounce

Without yelling at me or making me feel stupid......can someone please tell me is it 2P or 1115A? I need to know when to come up with a spontaneous illness at work.... whichever way it goes.

Please and thank you.

1115est. 2pm is a long running joke

 

[Vol423]

Did you not read the last half of his post? He said he cannot comment on the evolution of his recruitment until after the commitment. This is on the heels of saying that as of the end of July, he was a Vol. On top of that, he said he’s not sure about the final decision nor about why there’s been such recent silence. Tells me things have changed. Now, have they changed for the worse and then back to the better decision in that time span? Very possible. However, I don’t think I was misinterpreting anything that he said, based on his words that he used.

I wonder how many voices a bunch of you guys hear inside your head. It must be exhausting!

While I agree everyone needs to relax, 3 weeks in recruiting is a lifetime and everything can change

 

[EastTNVol95]

Again, if it's went south, it happened in 3 weeks. On July 27th, both AP and SF were pretty confident.

3 weeks is an eternity in recruiting...maybe Michigan got wind they were slipping and upped their offer?

I also know there was some chatter about Hiter wanting his NIL structured a certain way and maybe we weren't willing to meet those demands?

I have no doubt Heup and our staff did all they could do here. We've been pretty darn fortunate this cycle with how many of our top targets have gone our way (also got Moa as an unexpected surprise). I'm really hoping we are the pick tomorrow, but I'm not going to throw a fit and start blaming the staff if he picks Michigan.

If true, throw the Brinks truck at Keys.

If true, throw the Brinks truck at Keys.

So much of recruiting seems to be about optics and momentum.

Our coaches found Star Thomas in the fall porthole. Not worried as much about RB.

 

[vol94]

If you don’t interpret a post exactly like the poster you quoted, then you are an idiot and have reading comprehension problems.

[vol94]

You skipped over all the sentences and focused on one sentence and made your interpretation based on 1 sentence. You're right, and I'm wrong.

[vol94]

I'm sorry, why am I an idiot in this instance?

Just made a comment about how people can think for themselves. Have a good day, amigo.

just ignore and move on. Not worth it.

 

[LittleVol]

If true, throw the Brinks truck at Keys.

Why?

They had a budget for both together.

Why over pay?. especially with Two Top 100 players already committed at WR and Bey being maybe the most talented.

 

[WebbCobb]

The decision date was planned before the NCAA made a decision for Michigan.

Terrific. Did not know that. Thanks

Those voices are the most intelligent conversation I have.

Missing isn't a death blow. Life will go on. But it would still be a recruiting fail.

Not available now. What did it say?

 

[Chaplain_Vol]

Well if Hiter was hoping that his commitment would be an unknown and people would be in a frenzy on where he would go before he announced, he needs to look no further than this thread.

 

[etsuvol13]

Well, hopefully we can get a better point guard in the portal. Hate we are missing out…
