UT is hosting more than a dozen official visitors this weekend, but several of the Vols’ top targets and a couple of their commitments also are visiting other schools.

Feel sorry for the star gazers that is a lot to keep up with. For myself I will just see who we get on NSD.

Agree If we get an OV I am interested but if not alot of background noise from 18 year-old kids who have to be totally overwhelmed with all the attention they not only get from college football staffs, but social media!

Isn't it truly amazing that the decisions made by a group of immature 18 year olds will determine whether we kick the cat or take our wife out to dinner? This time of the year is just exasperating.

Ryan do you think it's an even race for North or does one team have an edge going into this weekend. Also in your opinion who on this list do we have the best chance of flipping? I know to a degree its just speculation and guesses but I always enjoy reading your thoughts.

the next couple of weekends are huge for our VOLS lets go get them coach Jones and staff! we need to make a couple big splashes on some of these defensive players! I would love to add a couple LB's , DB's , DE's , and also land North at WR! if we were to get say Bellamy, Bell, Alexander, Moore, Ford, North, Franklin, and keep Carr that would be awesome! we need to wrap up big with some momentum! I really like all the kids on this list, but i know some are a long shot! GO VOLS!

My realilstic mind says, "Don't expect too much in this transition to a new offensive system and virtually all-new staff." However, the fan mind hopes and prays for some serious surprise scores in recruiting.
Bell
Green
Ford
Alexander
Lawson
and North
My God, what a haul that would be!

Kind of fun to read all this and think "what if...". Hopefully Jones is a strong closer but it already appears he's getting more stars visiting. Could be a couple of nods our way could break the dam.

It could happen, but I'm trying not to over expect.

Tony Robinson-esque..Remember the 85' Tennessee Waltz game against Aubie when SI was there to do a story on Bo Jackson, but found out quickly Tony Robinson was the star of the game.
