ESPN ranks Vols top 10 in recruiting
Yeah, it's waaay too early to get worked up about this, as very few teams have many verbals yet. But I gleaned a couple nice things out of it:
Are the Volunteers on their way back? Early indications are the addition of new offensive wiz David Clawson has proved to be pivotal on the recruiting trail with offensive skill players and quarterbacks jumping on board early, with the likes of QB Josh Nunes (Upland, Calif.) and RB Jarvis Giles (Tampa, Fla./Gaither). The surprising contract extension of Phil Fulmer won't hurt down the road either.
Offensive Whiz? I like the sound of that. If ESPN is complimentary toward a UT staff guy, then he must be pretty good. However, I don't know what they find so surprising about Fulmer's extension. Isn't that what UT does?
Other than that, it's interesting that the Vols were listed with only 11 recruits. Most of the top 10 had more, and I'd bet that many below the top 10 had more as well. There's still a lot of room to fill out the class, but this speaks highly of the perceived quality of the current commitments.
