Per Matt Freeman, they had a scrimmage tonight and wanted to work on things for next week's game with a practice tomorrow, which sounds like was previously unscheduled.

If that is all that is going on, then should be ok. He can reschedule for us a lot easier than other places. I am sure Coach Sanford is already discussing when it can happen.

Can you be eligible for a decade?

It is a little bit of an exaggeration but the 2017 OL class could be on campus in 7 football seasons. 15,16,17,18,19,20,21.

That was my pathetic attempt at bringing a little humor to this thread :)

There have been rumblings on the Vol boards that HJ committed to the coaching staff over the phone on Saturday and will go public on Sunday.

Everyone knows that Vol fans are low-down dirty snitches, though, so take it for what it's worth.

I hope so. This way we can just rip the bandaid off and be done with it and the staff can put 100% into a kid that can see the difference between Tennessee and ND.

Are these the same fans that guaranteed John Gruden was going to be their coach a couples years ago?

While I would be willing to wait to see how well both teams do this year before pulling off the band-aid...yes they need to start looking at other options. I honestly don't know what USC says to all the highly rated QBs to keep them in the fold year after year but I would.

How much involvement has Kelly had up till this point?

Sometimes you have to show interest in other girls before the one you really want realizes what she is missing.

Kinda like a lot of fans who guaranteed Urbie would be ND some years back....

Believe it or not, Gruden was indeed very interested in both UT and Ark. Went so far as Gruden looking at houses in the Knox area and spoke to a bunch of the asst coaches. Gruden's wife either went to Tenn or is from the area, or both... can't remember the whole story. Ark put on the hard press too and was ready to make him the highest paid SEC coach.... From what I understand both schools got to the level of negotiations with him. Could have just been trolling to get more money out of the network...

And some times you bang the other girl. If he is not coming our way, we'll still get a stud.

I've been led to believe that Wiltfong was the be all - end all in the biz. Either he is and he's accurately reporting HJ's continued vacillation or he's just an over reactive, click whore.

Both the Johnson family and Wiltfong need to understand that this plays out poorly in the new media. Wiltfong is very close to the Indy players, I know this from the Noah Burks' recruitment. Families need to use him, stay tight on their info, leak out what they want in the press. and not let him use them for clicks.

In the end they need to ask themselves, What positive has talking to Wiltfong done for them?

Or the family knows that Wiltfong is a good dude, and they keep him updated on all the twists and turns of a high-schoolers tough decision-making process?
