Photoshopping recruits on the covers of magazines with famous women.

They have officially lost their damn minds.

You sure that's not fan made? Most of the photoshop work aka 'EDITS' are just fans with photoshop skills. They do them for anyone who asks, even non-UT recruits, and most involved pretty good at them.

That's an incredibly desperate and deceptive ploy. Clemson does something very similar.

You wouldn't want to sign a kid dumb enough to fall for that.

Nah, it's real. They did something similar for Preston Williams and Drew Richmond.

Honestly, I have no issue either way. From the fan edits - recruits always love them. They do a great job. And honestly it's hard to tell because a lot are pro jobs. UT did a great job with that.

Let the haters hate.

Sheeeesh Prof. Seriously?

I'm disappointed in the Vols.

That't ain't the way to do it.

Exactly. IDGAF as long as they keep bringing in the 'croots. Photoshopped pictures,bagmen, prostitutes, $100 handshakes...whatever, just don't get caught

Okay, there is no way TN recruiting staff believes this to be a legitimate recruiting tactic. No Way. They must be having fun with the recruit, kidding around. In that sense, it's probably effective to be able to joke with the player you want.

Dude is a huge Beyoncé fan. It's fun way to show we know these kids and their interests.

If you think any recruit is making their decisions based on one of these, then you're the dumb one.
