After Neal has 3 100+yards games in a row after the Florida game, Henry will realize what we already know... Jay Graham is the ticket. GO VOLS!

No surprise here, he's been honest about his status though out his recruitment.
Bama bound and its not even close.

It is refreshing to hear one of these young men be so upfront with their recruiting...even if it doesn't bode well for my Vols.

He needs to be reminded about a back in Houston named Foster. Saw Hardesty play against the Packers - he looked real good.

I wouldn't go that far.... UT just needs a lot to go in its favor this year.... Like winning some games it's not suppose to....

Doesn't it seem strange that he is going to make his commitment announcement on the 28th and says he is planning to visit bama on the 29th? If he was picking anyone besides bama why would he visit there the next day. Sounds all tide to me.

Seems to be a Barn/Meeechigan battle. TN seems to be behind those along with VT.

Was thinking the same thing and you posted it before I could.

It sounds like Bama, but it's good to see that we're basically in his top two. He's worried about going somewhere that will give him a great shot. He's probably a little uncertain about our running game - which is understandable until we prove it's good.

believe we are the bridesmaid in this one, but never count out the fact that we could use a RB that could be earlier playing time and not waiting in line at bammer. I have hope but thing that we catch the flowers on this one.
