Title: Re: Oh btw: Josh Malone=Vol. Boom, MFers.* Post by: droner on December 05, 2013, 01:17:03 EST I was reading today that UT has 4 or 5 of the top six recruits in Tennessee. Who is/are the one(s) that we didn't get or is he still mulling?

Who is/are the one(s) that we didn't get or is he still mulling? Alex Bars is a ND commit. I think he's also a ND legacy. Too bad, because we still need more OL.

I never hear anything about Wilson. Are we not recruiting him? I know he was a top 100 guy at one point, now he's down to a 3*. :confused: Title: Re: Oh btw: Josh Malone=Vol. Boom, MFers.* Post by: PirateVOL on December 05, 2013, 01:33:02 EST I never hear anything about Wilson.

I think he ends up at Memphis. Title: Re: Oh btw: Josh Malone=Vol. Boom, MFers.* Post by: Black Diamond Vol on December 05, 2013, 01:38:53 EST Like I said, he was very highly rated just a couple months ago, and his offer list is ridiculous (assuming all those offers still stand). What happened? Injuries? Academics? Yet another Memphis coach on the take? :frown:

Title: Re: Oh btw: Josh Malone=Vol. Boom, MFers.* Post by: VinnieVOL on December 05, 2013, 05:07:57 EST Just thrilled. But now I'm feeling greedy. Let's get Adoree Jackson!

Let's get Mosely in the house first. Then my next target would be Sharpe. Jackson would be an unexpected bonus. :thumbup:Title: Re: Oh btw: Josh Malone=Vol. Boom, MFers.* Post by: VinnieVOL on December 05, 2013, 11:34:12 EST Let's get Mosely in the house first.

Title: Re: Oh btw: Josh Malone=Vol. Boom, MFers.* Post by: VinnieVOL on December 05, 2013, 04:04:43 EST Pretty sure Sharpe will pick UF, btw.
Title: Re: Oh btw: Josh Malone=Vol. Boom, MFers.* Post by: Clockwork Orange on December 05, 2013, 04:07:50 EST Pretty sure Sharpe will pick UF, btw. Looks that way. Gimme Mosley and either Darrel Williams or Adoree Jackson and I will be a happy fan. Hell, I'm happy even if we get none of those guys, but I think there's a decent shot at 2 of 3.

Gimme Mosley and either Darrel Williams or Adoree Jackson and I will be a happy fan. Hell, I'm happy even if we get none of those guys, but I think there's a decent shot at 2 of 3. Absolutely. As everthing stands now it is a rousing success. I'm gonna flip out if we land Adoree. Title: Re: Oh btw: Josh Malone=Vol. Boom, MFers.* Post by: Black Diamond Vol on December 05, 2013, 06:00:35 EST Pretty sure Sharpe will pick UF, btw. I don't care if he does. I'd still stay on him until signing day. With their situation as fluid as it is, none of their commits can be feeling too positive about their decision.

Yet another Memphis coach on the take? :frown: http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/recruiting/player-Petera-Wilson-141763 No idea, but Rivals finally saw what everyone else saw and kicked him down a number of notches. At one point he was the #9 ILB. Now he is unranked (30 ILBs are ranked). Quote from: Rivals INSIDE LINEBACKERS Notable riser: Gavin Bryant, Jackson, Ala. (From unranked to No. 17) Notable dropper: None Comments: Tennessee commit Bryant continued his assentation at the position and is now on the verge of a four-star ranking at No. 17. Joining him as new entrants at the position include Kansas commit Kyron Watson (No. 20), USF commit Nick Holman (No. 24) and Wisconsin commit Dominic Cizauskas (No. 30). Big fallers at the position include Petera Wilson (No. 9 to unranked) and Michigan State commit Deon Drake (No. 16 to unranked).

At one point he was the #9 ILB. Now he is unranked (30 ILBs are ranked). Also, FWIW, if Rivals were to re-rank the state now Petera Wilson would be no better than 12th based on Rivals Rating. There are 2 5-stars, 7 4-stars, and 2 3-stars with higher ratings. Title: Re: Oh btw: Josh Malone=Vol. Boom, MFers.* Post by: Clockwork Orange on December 05, 2013, 09:18:55 EST Darrel Williams just officially decommitted from Arizona State. Robert Gillespie just visited him last night. Looks like a race between UT and LSU, and LSU has Fournette above him on their board.
Butch better find a way to rewrite SEC and NCAA regs re: class size. This is so much fun. Title: Re: Oh btw: Josh Malone=Vol. Boom, MFers.* Post by: droner on December 05, 2013, 09:25:59 EST I'm afraid that Butch might have to utilize the "Saban Protocol" in order to get the best class he can get.

If Butch really is this much of a recruiting mad scientist... I don't think all questions are answered, as the NCAA language is different from the SEC language. But this is an interesting nugget from Woodbery and it'll be interesting to see if indeed Butch is able to capitalize.
