He's the one who decommitted from Tennessee, right? He seems a little on the small side. Is he more of a slot receiver?

He is a former UT commit. Runs a 4.5 40. I believe he's 5'11 but he could play inside and out. He will get faster. Has a 38 inch vertical.

GREAT, we got another no-star diamond-in-the-rough player with no offers from any major universities, Gary isn't even trying anymore... just kidding, I really like this kid.

Lee is a lot of fun to watch check out his junior highlights on Hudl. His film reminds me of Dexter McCluster when he was at Ole Miss.

Pretty certain he's a slot receiver. Believe UT planned to use him that way at least.

This kid is interesting. He's an OL from Birmingham, and apparently wants to go to Bama. But it looks like they don't have room for him. He has an "offer" but it's contingent, and it's sounding like there's not room unless someone drops out.

He had an injury that he's recovered from, and he's lost weight - now he's down to 325. He has a great offer list, that doesn't include Missouri. Why? They need to be on this kid!! Now is the time to push if we're interested, because it's looking like he's going to make a decision from among his other offers soon.

Like his size. This season is so huge because the 2015 class is loaded with local or near local talent. Mizzou should be in a good position between him, and the Williams(4*) and Strong(4*) kids.

Yepp, he was signed as a 260 lb DE and reported as a 315 lb DT.

From Matters article on the depth chart/freshmen.

Wait is lee from that same school? Awesome to see somewhat of a pipline take place even after such a down year.

I agree with reedus we need some Dline though! I don't know why we have so much recruiting Dlinemen when we have such a good track record?

I'm pretty sure Williams will commit to Arkansas if we offer. He is an unabashed, lifelong Hog fan and has talked openly about how it's his dream school. He was impressive at our camp this past weekend. The coaches want to see him in a game however before they decide whether to offer him or not.

That said, he still plays at LSW which is basically a Mizzou feeder school so anything can happen.

Didn't know that. Thanks. Was kind of the reason I mentioned all of them. We certainly wouldn't take 3 RB's, but with the depth of talent with those 3 already being in the discussion, surely with a solid showing this year, Mizzou can land 1 of them. Didn't mean to imply we'd land all three. Once you land one of them, that's when I don't mind taking a flyer on a 2* from someone outside of the area. Unfortunately, that's the part that's been missing from this class.
