from the Vols and switched to the other UT. Strange, this one is out of the blue. |

There is no such thing as strange in recruiting, IV. Which is why I don't follow it until after signing day. |

Not as big of a loss as some may think. The Vols staff was likely going to move Cobbs to the secondary when he got here and the Vols are recruiting some major league talent in the secondary. |

It's hard to get upset about this.....by the end of the recruiting season we will have snagged several kids that have committed to other schools. It's just part of the game anymore. At this point there's a good probability that he will be replaced with someone at least as good..... |

The Rivals article reported that the UT staff hadn't contacted him for several months ... I thought this staff was calling and visiting their commitments on a regular basis???? |

Hmmmm, my guess is that: a) either Rivals is passing on bad info OR b) we decided that we were happier going a different direction and figured if we left him alone, he'd wander off somewhere else. Who's with me on this one???????????????????? |

He was the second highest rated commit on our board, right behind Corey Miller, He is a huge loss. I hope he and Bruce Irvin can be brought back in before all is said and done. Long time until february. |

Probable. But if it's B, Id have to say I question the decision. They know more than I do about it obviously, but I'd question it. |

No, they never wanted to lose DeMarco Cobbs, he is having a stellar season. The Texas coaches did not even have a recruiter assigned to him, they thought he was so solid to TN. He called them. They are delighted with this gift from the Gods. On Scout he is a 5* and our highest rated commit. Something made distance a factor all of a sudden. I don't expect our staff to give up on him, he is one of the top recruits in the country. |

The report I saw said that he hadn't heard from UT (Texas) in a long while. Apparently that is where he wanted to go and once they were in contact the deal was struck. |
