Currently the #5 ranked recruiting class on Rivals, I think.

👍🏻👍🏻  👏🏻👏🏻

I'd say bama & a&m will move way up, and other movement, but  :powert: is putting together a really nice class.  :thumbup:

No doubt that others will pass us. A top 10 class would be amazing, though.

Presently UT has one 5*, eight 4*, and nine 3* committed.

To compare, last season we signed zero 5*, seven 4*, and fourteen 3* players. (That was good for a 12th place finish.)

Pass rushers and ball-hawking DBs. That’s what we need. We’re probably never going to have a 3&out type defense under CJH, so we need guys to make the big plays and steal possessions. With our offense, if we’re above water in TO margin, I like our chances. Bradley and Herring should fit the bill nicely.

Don't they have 2 x 5*'s now?

One according to Rivals.

247 has Bradley as a 5* (making us 2) but only has is with six 4* and ten 3*. We are also currently 5th ranked on that site.

If they can get a few good defensive pieces, this team can put some fear into Bama, UGa and everyone else. I was reading a preseason football magazine, Lindy's or Athalon,  and it had the part where opposing SEC coaches review the team. One of them said the Vols were predictable on offense. I don't get where he gets that opinion from. :dunno:

Bradley is a 4* according to Rivals rankings.

Which is weird because rivals grades a a little higher in my observation lol. He is a good ballplayer... all that matters to me.
