So. Many. Nugs.

I don't even know where to start.

Actually, lets start here:

Flint is gone for sure imo

Others possible Grant, Litaker, Gerald, and Lane?

All 3 are being asked to look around, but I'm not positive on who all 3 are.

Flint sounds like a definite.
I wouldn't be surprised if the TE out of Farragut, Jacob Warren, is asked to look around either despite being from Knoxville.

The last one I have no idea on. Maybe Grant or Litaker?

Doubt it, Pruitt called him yesterday to assure him that he's wanted

Good, we need to do as much damage control in Knox High Schools as possible.

Warren was my primary thought as well. Good to know we are keeping the local HS ties intact. Hopefully we can mend stuff over at Knox Catholic. The Cade Mays BS looks ugly to the uninformed observer...

Interesting. I envisioned Warren being more of an Evan Emgram type TE -- An oversized WR better suited for spread concepts then a downhill, physical blocking TE that you see in most Pro style offenses.

Anthony Grant is visiting Virginia Tech on an official this weekend. He may be another name to watch.

No idea on who the 3rd recruit could be if it's not Warren. Possibly Litaker because of his injury and the scheme change? I'd hate to lose a big name kid from Rutherford county though due to our coaching staff asking them to move on. That's not a good look in the most vital area of the state for recruiting. Who knows. We'll see how it unfolds soon enough

Litaker has had a really rough life already. Cutting him would probably cause issues in Rutherford county which is the last place in Tennessee that we want to burn bridges. We are probably going to have a hard time filling up anyway, so it would be idiotic to risk it.

Guise, I think JJ Peterson is a VOL.

[link=(Check out Kvnng_j (@kvnng_j47): https://twitter.com/kvnng_j47?s=09)]Twitter is all Tennessee posts since Pruitt became HC. [/link]


Plus wearing the Tennessee towel in the state championship game. Kid is a fricking GOON.

Kingston Harris - 3* DL/DE from IMG Academy just committed to us. First ever IMG recruit for us?

Offer list is meh, but I'll take it.

3-4 DE, unless Pruitt and Rumph see something the experts don't, he's gonna be a career depth player.

Then again, you never know, he could be a caged monster.

Also, we need that IMG pipeline

JT Shrout decommitted from Cal today and is signing tomorrow. Sounds like he might be our QB for the class. Interesting prospect to say the least. Great arm, only one year as a starter(injury), received a ton of praise from NFL coaches at a camp, and had a ton of interceptions in his only year as a starter.

I like the pick up if it happens.

Helton turned Sam Darnold into a possible #1 Draft pick. Not saying Strout will be Darnold or even Bray, but I trust Helton to coach our QBs, and I trust his evaluations.


I'm not going to judge this coaching staff based on this recruiting class, this is a unique situation they're dealing with with the early signing period. 2019 should be LIT as frick.

HOWEVER, it looks like we're gonna end up with a decent class and land some big time players who didn't have us on the radar before Pruitt.
