I've heard the argument that no one would want to come to UT and play behind Crompton. Well guess what, 5* prosepct John Brantley just decommitted from Texas to go play beind Tebow at UF. I thought Cutcliffe was supposed to be a great draw for QBs based on his development of the Mannings. Someone rather astutely posted that winning in cfb is more dependent on QB play than any other single factor. So why can't UT get a highly rated QB commit? This is not a slam on BJ or Nick Stephens and, yeah, I'd freely admit that this is probably a "negative" post but I'm really pissed that this seems to be such a problem the past couple of years for the Vols compared to other SEC schools. For example:
Bama 4* Robert Marve 2007 class
Arky 5* Mitch Mustain 2006 class
Auburn 4* Neil Caudle 2006 class
Florida 5* John Brantley and 4* Cameron Newton 2007 class , 5* Tim Tebow 2006 class
UGA 4* Logan Gray 2007 class, 5* Matt Stafford 2006 class
LSU 4* Jarret Lee 2007 class
SC 4* Stephen Garcia 2007 class, 4* Chris Smelley 2006 class.
Some of these schools are just as well stocked at QB as the Vols so saying that QB just isn't an area of need this year is not much of a defense IMO.
