re: Tennessee 2011 Recruiting Class

Richardson to the Vols, I believe, he just announced.

I think you could call Moore, Clear, Maggitt (please sign), and Richardson a good closing. Getting the top two in-state kids is a success, a starter in the safety, and linebacker depth was all needed.

Landing either Wright or Jernigan (not likely) will make the close a major success.

I am. If he's committed, his LOI should be in by now. It's not.

I've heard he's signing at 11 AM. If that's the case we should know soon.

I wonder how many coaches cheat in this dead period by contacting recruits. It would be really hard to sit there as you lose ground on a prospect. And to sit there and wonder if other coaches (Kiffin and Ogre) are breaking the rules to make their final pitch. And it's probably an easy rule to break. Throw away phones and shite have been going on for a while.

Yep, now we can breath a sigh of relief.

But why the hell is Cam Clear waiting? Hoping Bama has some room or some shite?

I think we're safe here.

Maggit is a Vol.

Only one that is strange is Orta. He hasn't signed, and no one is talking about him.

Dawson was a bad surprise, but Maggitt last night was a good one. Overall, even assuming GW is not coming, it went as expected, and pretty good overall. I think GW would make it a great class.

GW is only one left on the board and he'll announce in an hour. I hope he comes, but I wouldn't be disappointed if he doesn't as I expected it.
