He likes Clemson but indicates being in the ACC was a huge negative.

I thought being in games on the CW was every kids dream.

Let’s go to a program where even a conference ‘division’ title is a big long shot.
Right?

Then why go to Tenn and not a contender in the SEC?

Not worried. I feel like we go through this every year. We panic when a few top prospects go elsewhere. My thought.. who cares. We get the ones that we need, and always have. At the end of the day we take 20-22 prospects each year and hundreds go elsewhere. We currently have the 12th best class this year, which is about where we always are. Nothing to see here.

Fact if our offensive recruitment leading up to our two NC were better. That’s just a fact. Our defensive recruiting hasn’t taking much at a dip. In order to win it all these days statistically we need to be top ten year in and year out with a top five classes sprinkled in. We have been fringe top 10 with defensive players holding us up. Wesco is our first 5* WR since Ngata who was a bust.

True, but when you put out an offense run by Streeter the last couple years, can’t really blame top notch talent for not wanting to come. I suspect and pray it will be night and day different under Riley. Thankfully we will get to see in a 1.5 months.

Looks at all services. I’m pretty sure he was a 5* by at least one service. Him and Larson and 5* by a Service.

THIS team , barring any late minute transfers will have 57,making it Dabo's most highly rated team, that's the FACT. Last time Rocky Top got a WR this board was foaming over, we got Mike Williams

Okay so we should have beaten them easily last year right? You can’t use mike Williams and HR as the standard because you can’t replicate that year in and year out. The teams that win NC you recruit top 7 year in and year our. We were the only program that beat those odds because we had TL16 and DW4

Yeah, with the remainder of those sanctions coming down, which will affect the next couple of seasons for Tennessee, don't be surprised if he does not decommit soon and go back to being available once again!
