Memphis is closer to 6 or 7 more SEC schools than Knoxville. It's basically a city in Ark. or Miss. to most Tennesseans. This year Tennessee has more above average recruits then other years.

ETA: Losing in-state recruits is one of the main reasons Fulmer was canned. He refused to recruit Patrick Willis, Harrison Smith, Randall Cobb, etc while losing out on Donte Hightower and other high level in-state recruits.
