So even though it seems to me that Rivals underrates a few

of our commits at the moment (Bates, Hurd, or Kelly may end up 5*, Henderson and maybe another may end up 4*), here's some perspective:

In 2013 TN had 5 4* signees and 11 players rated 5.7 or better. So far in 2014, UT has 7 4* commits, 14 rated 5.7 or better. And it's early July with more than 10 open spots and a lot of great players with TN high on the board.

As good as this class is going to be, many think our '15 class will be even better.  We already have 5 commits for next year- and as I understand it, 4 of them project to be 4* or better, with Cherry likely being a 5*.  And we're in the running for just about every elite prospect in that class.  If the team can just tread water on the field between now and then, 2015 signing day could be epic.  They don't have to be world beaters (yet).  Just show some signs of life, and the recruits will come.
