Vols up to #9 on Rivals

There are always surprises on NSD. We will probably get someone who we don't have on our radar. We will probably also lose someone. If the first 2 years are a measure, Dooley finishes strong. I am still amazed we are doing as well as we are with the WL records for the last 5 years.

I find it hard to believe this is a top 10 class. I'm not saying Tennessee doesn't have a good class, but top 10 doesn't seem right.

Always thought that besides the quality/rating of the athletes one factor that should be measured is matching the positions needed. Loading up on 4 and 5 stars at a position you already have depth isn't as valuable as 4 and 5 stars where you need the help.

For us we need DL's and lots of them. Wish we could get more. The other areas of urgent need are LB and RB. I'd say we are doing great at LB and need a surprise homerun at RB on NSD. Then we should be a top 10 class.

He was a top 200 recruit in 2009, signed with Bama and played a lot in 2010 then had grade issues and had to go to JUCO. He was in line for a starting spot on Bama's DL this past fall in 2011.

Rivals didn't get his JUCO film until two weeks ago (he only played 1 season at JUCO), they update JUCO rankings next week and he'll likely get a nice bump. I'll be shocked if he's not a 4star. But either way, stars or no stars, he's the only proven SEC caliber talent in UT's class (if he signs of course).

Ah. Helpful. Thanks for cleaning up after the vague "he was set to start for Bama" stuff. haha

If Sentimore was going to be good enough to start for Bama this past season, why are they turning him down now?? He seems to want to go there and they will not give him a scholarship.

If you wondering why Bama won't give him a scholarship, it's simple............numbers. Bama is still recruiting McCullers and are current trying to flip Alphonso Taylor from FSU. (Taylor is listed as OG, but Bama---ie Saban---wants him at NG.)

With that said, Sentimore is sang talented and he would be a good fit in Knoxville, if you can get him.

Just think what Dooley could do if he could actually recruit............those 3 stars so many of your stargazers get mad at seem to be killing your class.

#9 in the country is such a letdown.

Better reflection of the truth.
