http://247sports.com/Player/Sterling-Johnson-36641 Crystal Ball is 81% to UT right now Offers from Alabama, Auburn, Florida, FSU, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Clemson, Texas, Miami and Penn State. Would be a big pick up for the Vols.
Good point. His ranking has dropped lately but his offer list is as elite as it gets. I know Settle and Mckenzie are higher on the list for sure but I'd like to know who else they think is "higher on the board" than Johnson.
Sounds like a perfect situation if we really are drowning in potential commitments. Can always take him now and let him walk later with a legit excuse.
Aaand right on cue, Johnson has canceled his announcement for tonight. Looks like Volquest was right about him not being a take, although if it were me, I'd take him now just in case we miss on Settle or Jones.
It can be. Although when you get a guy like this it takes work to try and get them eligible and sometimes it's not worth it. Also if you just sit back and take the wait and see approach you could miss out on some bigger fish because they want to go to a school with less d linemen committed. It's a tricky situation. That's why some really good prospects get underrated solely because of grade issues.
http://sportstalksc.com/index.php/2...gn=Feed:+SouthCarolinaSportstalk+(SportsTalk) The above quote tells me that we've got a couple of silent commits at DT right now, most likely Mckenzie and Tim Settle. Butch is probably leaving that last spot open for JUCO DJ Jones.
