Yea. Sorry I should have been more clear. Me and other LSU fans originally were kind of incredulous about us dropping him, but unless I’m completely remembering order of events incorrectly, we had no idea about Burton or Jarrett at that point. If you read the thread it says Boutte was our #1 receiver at the time of Turner’s decommit. Clearly the coaching staff had a pretty good read on at least 1 of Burton or Jarrett enough at that point to make the move. It’s a cuttthroat business sometimes. Like I said, he’s a good player and if it was any other year he would have made it in the class. We just happened to have an insane WR class this time around.

The one issue Tennessee fans seem to have with Turner and why some teams may have backed off is the same they said about Trey Knox last year - too slow. Morris loves bigger receivers though and I've read where he could play TE, DB or even LB. I think Knox has dropped about 10 pounds from where he was in high school.

Would take him and figure the rest out later. That would give us what, five 4* WRs that we've landed in the past two classes? Six if you include Hudson Henry as a TE. Pretty impressive given where the program is currently at IMO. Stepp is a very good recruiter. Getting a lot of players from Memphis too.
