They are currently ranked # 1 in SEC for the class of 2021. They have 15 players committed RN including two-5 stars.

Here is the more puzzling piece--of the 15, only 2 are from Tennessee. Pruitt using the trickery he learned from the midget and even giving UGA a run for their money (pun intended!)?

They took a kid who know else wants to touch with a 10 foot pole cause he has a domestic battery arrest as a junior in high school. Brooks ain’t over by a long shot either. UT will flop like they always do.

Based on volume more than anything.

As it's been recently said on here before, a strong Tennessee is good.

Challenges UGA, UF, and possibly Clemson if at peak U of Tennessee (90's UT) recruiting wise.

Helps LSU more than hurts.

I could be wrong, but I don't think it's unusual for Tennessee to recruit mostly out of state. I would guess they rarely have more in-state than out of state signees.

Fulmer back to his old tricks. He tells recruits, play football, I will have student assistants go to class take your exams, and write term papers. Kids don't have to pass entrance exams, this year.

Aside from the 2 5 stars the rest of the class seems pretty ordinary or at least standard Tennessee. I'm surprised they have 15 at this time but no telling there.

After a 13 year hiatus, its about time Tennessee starts playing football again.

Just gonna leave Bama off the list too? Border wars recruiting as well as permanent rivals.

Weak arse Tennessee has been hurting the rest of the SEC-W and college football in general.

In addition to Bama, their SEC East annual opponent.

Additionally, the kids they’re getting aren’t in P&G...but they aren’t rocking Crimson either...

As I stated earlier in the SEC rant (since this one was dead) I have gut feeling given their recent success on the trail...that the Vols land Z. Evans in Aug/Sept when it’s time for kids to enroll for the fall semester

Where he is & where that program is, in addition to considering their recruiting this cycle...seems like a match made in Tenne$$ee heaven

VOLS, as well as Ole Miss, have completely abandoned recruiting him.


He’s a walking recruiting violation

I'm pretty sure this is how they did it during their heyday. They always relied on recruits from surrounding states.

I dont think they are pulling anyone LSU wants in state and most likely not out of state Let them expand the talent in the East

LSU and VOLS recruit very different areas so there’s very little overlap in targets.

Memphis is the only area they really share and it’s a down year there, and VOLS are only going after one guy in Texas.

Where did their latest head coach come from? Where was his last job? Wonder if he picked any of his recruiting prowess there?
