Vols debut at #5 in Rivals '15 team rankings

Yahoo Sports: Rivals.com 2015 Team Recruiting Rankings

Boom!


4 - 4stars, all in the Top 250 and 3 - 3stars. Not a bad start to the '15 class. Should be another amazing recruiting class where UT stays in the top 10 all year. I think we'll sign 22-25 and finish in the top 5 again.

GBO!

Position rankings are out...

Apparently his offer was uncommitable. You can read more about it in his recruiting forum thread.

Four of the top five teams were in the top five from the final rankings of 2014. Texas A&M finished #6.

It wasn't a commitable offer, and he let social media know before he elt the coaches know. We have limited spots for CBs next year and weren't ready to accept his commitment.

edit: someone beat me to it

I see a pattern here...

Arkansas off to a much better start this year.

And PW will likely get bumped up to a 5* on rivals, 247 just made him one.

 

[triad280]

and Butcher has a shot at 5*... some 3*'s have a shot at 4*...
before long they will be getting the UT bump in ratings by spotting
undervalued talent that gets noticed in their senior yr that we've had locked up
their jr year...

 

[TNVolunteerGrad]

Two top 5 classes would be just what the doctor ordered as far as crootin goes.

I don't think they will give Butcher a 5th star. It might be deserved though.

I Hurd somewhere most of them were, but I can't say where with any certainTee.

[triad280]

you very well may be right DTO...I'm glad he's a VFL though, I don't care if he's a 1*...

I don't have a subscription or anything like that but from experience, they seem to reserve most 5* rankings for skill players.

I 100% agree with you, that I'm glad he is a VOL. He has phenomenal ability.

Otha Peters was soft until his Arky visit.......

Unlimited top 5 classes would be just what the doctor ordered as far as crootin goes.
