Kentucky Wildcats Basketball: 2011 Recruiting Big Board (Version 2)
A lot has changed in the 10 short days since my initial 2011 Recruiting Big Board came up, enough that I figured an update was in order. Two deadlines came and went. The first was April 17, when DeAndre Daniels completed his Duke official visit without committing, a surprise to many. Daniels may...
Recruiting Tuesday: The Difference Between a Battle and a War
So we finally get some recruiting news: Bruce Irvin de-commits from Tennessee and commits to Arizona State. The highly rated JC linebacker would have been a great help to the depth chart, and likely would have made a quick impact on the team, but has decided that greener pastures await him in the...
UCLA Weekend Dampens No Enthusiasm: Vols Pick Up Corey Miller, Brandon Willis, and DeMarco Cobbs
Relentless. Get used to the word. Not even a deflating loss like what was seen on Saturday can slow down the recruiting engine that Lane Kiffin has had installed. I would love to know what goes on behind the scenes with the recruits and the staff because, whatever it is, it works. There are...
Recruiting Tuesday: Trimming the Fat
Entering this weekend, the recruiting board had 48 prospects on the list that were not specfically committed to Tennessee. With a maximum of 12 (28 maximum - 16 commits) possible roster slots left to fill, it's rather obvious that most names on the board will not go to UT. So it should come as no...
Recruiting Monday: Take the Helm
The 2010 recruiting class is beginning to take focus with the recent commitment of man-beast Delvin Jones. Jones, whose mere 4-star ratings are somewhat hampered by the recruiting agencies' inability to project his playing position, is a tremendous luxury - an athlete who can legitimately excel at...
Delvin Jones: Man. Beast. Volunteer.
Following recruiting is a full-time gig. When real life gets in the way, you're liable to be surprised by some recruiting news. Such was the case this evening; the Mrs. and I took off to relax for a little bit in the evening, and I returned home to a feed reader that was practically beside...
Recruiting Tuesday: The Beat Goes On
Michael Taylor was the big recruiting news of the week. Arriving in Knoxville on an unofficial visit, he took in the Friday and Saturday practices of the Vols with his father and had the opportunity to speak with the coaches and a few of the players. Now, Taylor may currently be listed as a...
Recruiting Tuesday: The Tipping Point
What a wild month of recruiting! In July, we had the following events: Chase Rettig committed to the Boston College Eagles on the 13th. Jesse Scroggins committed to the USC Trojans on the 23rd. Nick Lamaison committed to the Tennessee Volunteers on the 24th. Markeith Ambles committed to Tennessee...
Recruiting Tuesday: Much Ado About Quarterbacks
UPDATE: Markeith Ambles is now updated to a Tennessee COMMIT! Boy, it felt good to delete the "appears to be leaning toward the Gators" phrase out of his description. -hooper Does it seem to you like it's only been 5 days since Jesse Scroggins went domestic and committed to his hometown...
Still Searching: Scroggins Rejects Tennessee and the Rock for USC
In what is beginning to feel like an offseason nightmare for Tennessee, this afternoon on ESPN, Jesse Scroggins committed to the USC Trojans. So much for truth in advertising: Or not. It's a move that we saw coming. After Lane Kiffin explicitly informed everybody that he wouldn't offer Jesse's...
