Pretty disappointing recruiting if you ask me. Personally the only kid these guys have who would even get a chance in the sec islemond Johnson. Not impressed with these kids we need to finish with a Derek green, north, and Von bell. #VFL

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Says the guy who knows jack squat about any of them, other than how many stars are beside their name. Utterly ridiculous!!!!

so, if stars and recruiting ratings don't matter, you believe that a class of 3 stars is just as good as a class of 5 stars?

A class of 5 stars? I've never seen one considering there's only a handful of 5 star guys every year. Sure, a couple 4's and 5's can be immediate impact guys, but football games aren't won with stars. UT had enough talent to win the East this year, easily!!!! I'll take coaching over stars any day of the week!!!!

Good kid. Plays for one of the best high school programs in ohio, I'd say the best public school. His offense is a triple option at Colerain. But Colerain is used to having kids going to big schools. Just had a LB who went to Michigan and was playing this year as a freshman. They have like 50 former payers right now playing in college. He's a gritty player and will be very good after getting some more muscle on him.

Ryan, yes he is very physical.. This is exactly the type of player you want to build a program. He will be good enough to start after a year or two and will give his all. Needs to become more disciplined in technique.. Obviously you get away with things when you are much bigger in high school, and also will have to get comfortable with pass blocking, comes from a run heavy offense. But like I said before, the high school he comes from is a powerhouse. They have produced many quality players.

And really guys, give CBJ a full year of recruiting before you criticize him not getting enough 4 or 5 star players. He came in here already out of the game for most of those guys.

Ryan, does this mean anything with Skipper? I know Dylan is a guard but from an overall #'s on the OL as I see them wanting to keep big Tall Dan and it seems as if they are all over Morris. Either jones is taking 6 OL or Skipper has indicated he's probably not coming. TIA

UT needs at least 2 OGs and 2 OTs in this class bc in 2014 we will lose Tiny (NFL early), Fulton, James Stone and Bullard. That leaves us with really 1 OT in Posey on our roster and he will not play much if any this year.
Marcus Jackson and Kerbyson will be our OGs in 2014. Crowder will be our C probably. Sanders, Skipper (or whoever replaces him), Posey and ? we sign still will be our OTs.
Kendrick and Weisman will be our backup OGs in 2014.
OT is a desperate need and we cant afford to miss on at least 2 of them for our needs come 2014
