Well when you sign 74 players in a class, it's not really that big of a deal

Actually it was 102. Accounts for our rankings, the services also made an exception we got 1* each up to 100 and then 4.5 2* in order to make our higher than everyone else's pure star total.

Yep, I remember UT's last HC brought in 12 4* prospects in the 2010 class plus a 5*....the 2011 class he brought in another 12 4* prospects...the 2012 class another 10 4* prospects were brought in...

Good to see Tennessee maintaining that high level of programmin'.....

You signed 45 players or something, you were bound to get some 4 stars. Congrats though

Not all four stars are created equal. The difference is Dooley brought in low rated ****s. Butch is bringing in top 300 players.

This is our best class in LONG time.

Look Vols y'all signed a damn good class. But please stop it with this we signed the most star players because y'all signed the most players out of anyone(32).

Confirmed.....


UGA had 13 defensive players sign last year that were 4 stars in either the 247 composite or 247 proper.


Damn, and Mauger was forced into playing this year. His rating was just as bad as his play.

Yep. 20 four stars and 2 five stars, if you use each recruits highest rating out of 247, ESPN, Scout, and Rivals.

If we cut our 8 lowest ranked signees and had a "normal sized class" (25), our star rating would probably jump up to 3rd.

So because we were able to sign 32 players while no one else could, we're not allowed to use it to our advantage? Hmmm....seems to me if LSU had done the same, we woulnd't hear the end of it
