He should pick UT if he wants to play RB. But he will pick Bama |

Well you follow recruiting much closer than I do. Nevertheless, the article is saying he would be better off at UT, and I definitely agree.  You out there Derrick? Come to UT baby! |

Dude. Bleacher Report? Seriously?  I stopped reading BR before the Oregon game 2 years ago. Some OU columnist picked them to beat us by some crazy margin like 70-3. I posted in the comments, "I'll take UT and 67 points for $1000. Put your money where your mouth is". And he replied, "LOL. You really think UT is going to win by 67?"  (Dammit if they didn't almost cover his ridiculous spread anyway, but that's beside the point.)  |

Now I think it's Bama too. I was seeing sand hearing some things yesterday that led me to make that prediction, but those have changed. Getting Green would be awesome, though!

At 6'3" and 243 lbs with good speed he will be a tough one to bring down. Kinda reminds me of Brandon Jacobs. Would love to have a power back like this kid or Green as well. Both over 6 feet tall with good leverage and speed. Getting either one of these kids to verbally commit will have a major impact on reruiting other high profile players at every postion. So, come on down to Rocky Top either one of you or both of you, there is room for both of you here!!!!!!

I happen to agree.  And not just for my own team, but for his own interest. My understanding is that people in his home town like to talk and they are saying bama. My post is not a prediction but a comment. |

Apparently Saban has told him that being "the man" at TN will wear on his body, whereas he can be "the guy" at Bama in two years then be primed and his body be in good condition to take the NFL on. Hard to argue with that logic, a RB only has so many years on his knees and whatnot. |

Look for Green to come to UT, along with another RB. Could be Turman or Williams.

He'll be in real good condition when Bama inevitably goes through another round of NCAA sanctions and having no bowl games to wear on his body.  |

If he is waiting to announce until after we lose to UGa, MSU, and Alabama, he ain't coming to UT either. |

Until we get an OC that will feature a RB we won't get a "big star" guy.
