sounds like a UF recruit

Posted by sjt18 on October 9, 2007 at 3:45 p.m. (Suggest removal)

It is odd that Rivals on rates him a 3* considering the attention kids get in Florida. I wonder if he can't catch or something?

I hate UF and would rather see him go anywhere else... but understand why being close to home might matter if he's close to his family.

James Stewart was over 6' tall and went about 200 lbs. Travis Henry was short but heavy. Charlie Garner was short and not incredibly big.

UF has a bigger glut of guys at WR than UT. They don't really feature a RB in the spread but he'd still be behind Rainey and at least one guy they've already pickedup this year plus the transfer from USC.

He may be convinced to open up his recruiting once Leavitt comes visiting.

Didn't Stephens go over 1000 his only year as a starter? Garner seemed to have some pretty good stats too.

Before I forget, UF may not sign him. They've already signed a number of players. Several are skill players if I remember correctly. They are on the board for several other kids ranked ahead of this one. They might not have a scholarship for him.

I can't remember for certain but I think this has to be a small recruiting class for UF and UT.

Posted by 99gator on October 9, 2007 at 5:18 p.m. (Suggest removal)

i follow florida recruiting pretty closely. in florida circles, the worst kept secret is that this kid is coming to florida. uf is still looking to sign wr's and has none officially committed. this is one that is believed to be secretly committed. caldwell graduates, ingram will leave early to the pros. they will sign two to three wr's or athletes to play wr.

Posted by 99gator on October 9, 2007 at 5:21 p.m. (Suggest removal)

yes, i said wr. at florida, that's where he will play

Posted by inquiry on October 9, 2007 at 5:30 p.m. (Suggest removal)

alfully small looking to me

Posted by sjt18 on October 9, 2007 at 5:41 p.m. (Suggest removal)

99gator, How many scholarships does UF have to give this year?

BTW, Do you really think Ingram will leave early or be drafted that high if he does?

He's a force in CFB but he's too small to play TE in the pros and not quick enough to play WR. At best, I could see someone taking him in the later middle rounds as a project.

Posted by 99gator on October 9, 2007 at 5:49 p.m. (Suggest removal)

on ingram....

yes and yes.

florida has anywhere from 16-19 schollys. i know that sounds weird. it depends on who leaves for the nfl. right now, that is believed to be harvey and ingram. how many may transfer.

also, because of the last two years of recruiting.... meyer is going to be very selective. the classes were very good and very large and all of them qualified and got in school. so, you will see them reach more for the stars at a couple of spots and if they miss out so be it. there are only a couple of positions of real need. but, even there they are going to be real selective

Posted by 99gator on October 9, 2007 at 5:52 p.m. (Suggest removal)

also, the trautwein injury has an affect. he will likely be a medical redshirt and be back next year even though he is a senior.

Posted by sjt18 on October 9, 2007 at 6:17 p.m. (Suggest removal)

That's what I thought and why I think UF may pull this kid's offer. You've already got about 10-12 commits, right?

Posted by 99gator on October 9, 2007 at 6:24 p.m. (Suggest removal)

no, florida has 8 commits currently.

2 of them are from a high school in savannah, ga. word round the campfire is that spurrier may end up luring them up to carolina.

regardless, florida has no wr's committed. demps is a player they will make room for and will take if he commits. meyer values speed over everything else.

UF will have 25 scholarships to give out once the crimal justice system down there gets into action. They have more future cons on that team then everyone in the SEC combined (1 out of 8 just this year). As for the article Demps all but says he's staying close to home.

that's the pot calling the kettle black, don't you think.

this is one of the things i am tired of. every school, including yes, tennessee has its discipline problems. i am not saying florida is perfect, but we are not alone. tennessee has a list of problem student athletes that is long and distinguished. so back off on that one.

Hey everyone...Has the laughing gas worn off yet? If you want any chance at the SEC this year, the VOLS have to stay focused, hungry, aggressive, with passionate coaches and fire in everyone's eyes. Still have it this week? P.S. it's not December yet.

CRVol is hilarious. I read his stuff and get a kick out of it. This is still freedom of speech, and everyone has that right I hope.

99gator, No offense to you personally but Meyer is not a disciplinarian on off the field stuff by any stretch. CPF wasn't either until 2005 but since he's been very stout.

The suspension last year of the DT was an absolute joke. Joiner would have more than likely been punished had he done the same thing at UT even if the charges were dropped. I think the charges against Schaeffer were resolved without a conviction and CPF gave him the boot.

Maybe Joiner is a good kid that screwed up once but it isn't like what he did was unintentional or without premeditation... say like a fight or something.

Posted by auttat on October 10, 2007 at 10:44 a.m. (Suggest removal)

Didn't Travis Stephens have something happen to a family member and he decided to redshirt so that he could play the year after Travis Henry left? He played behind Jamal Lewis and Travis Henry. 2 of the best to ever play at UT. And I think 99gator would attest to the fact that we used Stephens pretty well in 2001. However, I will leave it to you, oh great one jwraymond. The rest of us are just morons. The one thing that I remember about Stephens before 2001 is that dang blade of grass that seemed to always trip him up.

The RB playing for LSU runs about the same in the 100 m and goes 5'5"/155 lbs.

Well, not to be like CRVol, but we would probably show it once next year and then when the other team realized it and called time out (oh no, i think they are on to us) we would sit on it for a year. All the while, every punt would be downed inside the 10. I love UT and I want the coaches that we have now to succeed, but even I was disheartened by this acknowledgement.

I enjoy reading most of the posts that follow the articles. You get great insight from fans and some different perspectives. Its not only entertaining, insightful and intriquing but it makes you better able to be in the know about the Vols.
I say all of that to say this "I refuse to read any of comments posted by CRVol." Most of the comments are non-football related, critical not only of the Vols but to others comments and posts. He also has several of his posts removed and has used perverted references to other people posting.
I suggest that either CRVol stick to football or KNS permentantly band him from posting. If I want to read negative comments about UT, its fans and everything in general, I would go to another schools site.
Give it a break CRVol...your rants are stale, crude and unacceptable to a true UT fan!

If you look at the better players in the country... most of them were rated highly by Rivals. This kid may move up. OTOH, they do a good job of comparing kids and especially in talent rich areas where you see the better players go head to head or against the same opponents.
