I hate these type of events. He seems like a really nice guy but totally unnecessary.
If you're not in it, you can't win it.
Before you flip a cookie Dylan did the same thing which you mention..Now I know this is a different circumstance and his girl friend may play a factor but winning 9 games would really flip our program in the right direction..
completely different circumstances. The girlfriend factor is huge. Proximity to his home is huge. Neither of those were factors for Raiola.
you just wish him well and stay in touch with him in case something changes. That said, Heupel is a good dude and his girlfriend is unlikely to dump a guy with an NFL future...
Well darn. Close only counts in horseshoes, hand grenades, and slow dancing.
How you treat people will impact them and others. Stay in touch and be respectful about it. Guys will talk. Yep he will push Tennessee to others but coaches and other players will also see the respectful attitude and way other schools treat him too. 🤞🤞🤞
I’m not typically a morale victory guy but this dude is the number 1 player in the country and we almost had him. Thats worth something and a huge testament to the momentum and potential of the program especially considering we haven’t won yet with this staff. If we have a good season this year , things are gonna get real!
What's the going rate on top QBs nowadays? 2 to 3 million? Im guessing David is 1 plus million?

Although he selected the Vols, that's still much better than landing at OSU or anyone else from the Big Ten.
On On3, from January through this week of Aug 13, Tennessee had 16 players enter the portal.
There are negatives to the type of offensive attack NU "may have" with Dylan as a point guard/distributor of the ball.
In the spring game, he completed 15? of so passes to more than a dozen receivers. That doesn't resonate with the elite kids who want to go somewhere to catch 80-100 balls a year.
Same thing at RB. Splitting carries among 2-3 guys, each with 10-12 carries does not invite a truly elite RB. Those cats want 20+ carries every game. They want to be THE man.
Conversely, NU plays a ton of kids on defense, especially young kids, and that says opportunity to make the field and not ride the pine.
Agree. But wouldn't it be nice to have all 3?
It would but I think wins will be the only thing that will get us that.
translation: Tennessee is already paying my girlfriend 6 figures to go to school in Knoxville.
We need to keep in mind in all of this that Sanders has not yet proven himself as a P5 player. He might end up being a bust. It has happened many times before. I doubt he will be but it is possible. How does being an instant millionaire at age 18 affect a kid’s psyche? How sound are his knees? And so on… Losing one recruit, no matter how highly regarded, is not that big a deal so long as we are recruiting well overall.
All that said, it just underscores how fricking important it is for us to have a break out season this year. We desperately need to start winning again.

He doesn't have an uncle but we went hard after his aunt. One of our grad assistants was going to take one for the team....
Win 8-11 games this year. All of the sudden being in the living room with a hat on thw table will start to matter even more. This team is on the verge. Winning 9/7 to show recruits that's its not lip service and hype but actual substance will matter a lot.
