Also, look for 4* guard Venzell Boulware to commit to VOLS Saturday.

All of the CB's shifted to TN in a landslide today. Even the OSU guys.
This one is locked down.
Keep an eye on Sapp too.

Starting a little pipeline to Milton eh. At least you won't have to worry about the kids not qualifying for school.

Big news here.

Also, I talked with Kyle Phillips last night and his Hillsboro team plays on Saturday in Kentucky and he said if he's feeling up to it on Sunday he wants to make it to the Tennessee game. That will be a Sunday morning decision he said, but he's hoping to make it to Knoxville.

Five-star senior defensive tackle Shy Tuttle of North Davidson High School in Lexington, N.C., is expected to take an unofficial visit to Tennessee on Sunday night for its season opener against Utah State, a source close to his recruitment told GoVols247 on Wednesday.
Lock this one up boys. Maybe he'll bring Beyoncé

Shy Tuttle, Preston Williams, Jack Jones and Kyle Phillips were confirmed to be at the game last night

Slow-playing a recruit can sometimes work, depending on the school and situation. However, it does not seem to be working with Tennessee and four-star defensive back Ugo Amadi. The Vols backed off Amadi after he committed to Ole Miss while others remained in pursuit, but now in desperate need of additional defensive backs the coaching staff has been trying to get back into good standing with the Ole Miss commit. To further complicate the matter, four-star defensive end Kyle Phillips and Amadi are believed to be a package deal, with Phillips being a priority for the Vols from the start. So now it looks like both Phillips and Amadi may both end up at either Ole Miss or LSU, while the Vols are currently in third for both according to some sources.
quote:
And speaking of slow playing, the Vols might have missed out on an offensive tackle, but you can't blame them for going all in with 5-star offensive tackle Drew Richmond who committed to Ole Miss last week. Tennessee has now fully turned their attention to a few other top candidates to fill a void on the line. At this point, it is likely the Vols will be putting the full-court press on North Carolina commit William Sweet of Jacksonville First Coast. While he has been committed to the Tar Heels since April, Sweet has always seemed relatively open to other schools, including the Vols. Look for that interest to heat up considerably with Richmond off the market. Another offensive tackle who will likely get more attention from the Vols is Michael Howard. As mentioned, another possibility could have been Alex Givens, but the Vols had been slow playing him recently and that ended with him also giving a commitment to Ole Miss last week. New names will obviously also emerge for the Vols at offensive tackle in the coming months.

Pretty good stuff from a poster on 247 who watched Dormady play last night and got to meet Butch and Baja
quote:
First, Dormady is the real deal. Good feet, lot of zip on the ball, and throws on time. Also a big kid that is faster than any QB on the roster. Not as fast as Jennings but not far from it. Will definitely be more of a threat to keep on the read option. Very accurate. Threw a couple of INTs but that's because he thinks he can fit any ball in the smallest window. Threw a couple of comeback routes that the ball was gone before the receiver turned around and hit him right in the numbers. Don't know how Dobbs will improve but it looks like Dormady will play next year. Butch and coach jake are very nice and engaging. Never felt like they were trying to end the conversation or push me off and they took pictures. They thanked me for my service asked me about where I have been. Coach jake said he imagined I played before because I am a big guy. There were a handful of Vols fans there and i got to meet SoTexVol with Smokey. Coach Jones said me and my wife made his day and he really seems so genuine which is why i understand how great a recruiter he is. They truly are all about relationships and it shows. All the videos and interviews I see on the internet and to now have met them in person, it seems surreal. On another note, he said that he will be in nashville tomorrow and then to north carolina to see Shy Tuttle. I told him we need and have to get Shy Tuttle. Butch said "we will, i promise you that!" Early BOOMAGE!!!! One of the better days of my life.

Legitimate csb.
An Elder tweet this morning seems to be alluding to a commitment at some point today. Any info?

I have no clue tbh. I think Elder is visiting with Tuttle all day today. Maybe he got confused and thought he was announcing today haha. Ordway is supposed to announce today but I really, really doubt we would take him.

Butch just officially pulled Jaylond Woods' offer. Boom

Ugo Amadi and Kyle Phillips will be at the Florida game.
Interesting that Amadi is going to a UT/UF game at noon instead of watching Ole Miss play their biggest game in many, many years.

Heading into today I said everything is swinging towards Va Tech. Then, this morning, I get a call from someone if Virginia telling me Tennessee has some momentum there these last few days and are definitely a team to watch.

4* DE D'Andre Walker said last night that VOLS is his new leader over UGA and Auburn.

Can you guys tell me about Jason Carr? He suddenly popped up on our radar today when he told our 247 mod he's coming to the game this weekend.
Posted on 10/1/14 at 9:30 pm to UMRealist
I wondered what he had been up to lately.
Basically, he wasn't worth a crap at DT in the spring and couldn't crack the 3 deep (which is saying something because our DT depth is pretty bad right now and was really bad in the spring). Not sure if it was from lack of talent or lack of effort. Butch finally tried to move him to OT to get something out of him and Carr quit the team a couple of days later.

Interesting. Doesn't sound like the kind of guy we'd want in the locker room.
Posted on 10/1/14 at 9:51 pm to UMRealist
Yeah, he was easily the biggest disappointment from spring practice this year. Most of us had him pegged in as a starter for this season and he just plain sucked.
Maybe he will flourish with a change of scenery idk. I will say that will the way Freeze & Co are recruiting, I really don't think he's worth the gamble for OM.

Agreed. We redshirted a few DTs this year and don't lose anybody after the season I believe so no point in risking it.

VQ hinting around that 4* CB Micah Abernathy will commit to us this weekend
