Any DT looking at our depth would be thrilled to be at Tennessee ...

(He was told by LSU that he would have to grayshirt, and he's pissed).

BJ said that he was still working on recruiting some DTs. Why did we pass on the ones that were available prior to NSD? Afterall, most of the good ones signed today.

I would rather save spots for next year instead of landing another Martaze Jackson or Raiques Crump.

I don't think that's a concern ... we haven't filled our quota for a couple of years.

we are trying but he has no relationship at all with anyone on our staff. he does have realtionships already with UL and UK coaches


That's a deal killer right there. I think that he has had his heart set so deeply on being a Tigger, I can't see how he would be happy anywhere else.

Maybe so, but you were the one in the OP imploring CBJ to make a phone call.

I was actually hoping to share some good news, but nevermind.

Jones did make a phone call, and I thought someone might have worked with him previously ... but the fact that no one on our staff has a prior relationship with Lawson does not bode well for us. :(

This staff can't be everywhere and know everything. It was worth a shot and anytime someone here (and you guys know D1 prospects from D3 prospects) you should contact the staff. Azzanni is the recruiting coordinator or send an email to Angie in the recruiting office. (She was hawt last time I saw her in person).
Example: Dyersburg has a 6-5 1/2 QB with a really big arm. Been to quarterback camps every since the eighth grade. Good feet, good pocket presence. Problem is that his team throws about 7-9 times a game. First, the coach is second generation, old school, run the ball, and secondly, the kid has not one decent receiver with any size and speed. His last name is Bradshaw and I have fired off a letter to CBJ to ax him to just take a sneak peak at the kid.
