Hope our present momentum continues into tomorrow. We've added a couple studs here lately are are in the final 2-3 teams on several big name prospects like C Maggitt, A Richardson, G Wright, L Dawson, and T Jernigan. We might get only 1 or 2 of them, but Dooley and company have done a really good job overall.

Added 4 star juco CB Ryan Moore yesterday and 4-star TE Cam Clear today. I think we presently have 3 of the top 15 jucos. Looks like we are seeking a quick turnaround.

Heard anything about Dawson? I know UT was up here visiting him last week. He'd be a big signing for UK....I really don't think he's gonna go out to Oregon. It's gonna come down to UK or UT.

I heard that he is really a hard young man to read. Some scout analysts are saying UK or Oregon. Some folks at UT think we have a decent shot at him. I'm guessing you guys get him, but he really is a wildcard.
Oh, and you got to hand it to him. He seems to be taking his time to make an informed decision as opposed to playing the games that so many do these days. He seems like a level-headed, serious guy who is going to be a huge get for some team.

It looks like Dooley's strategy of saving all recruiting until the end of the season is working fairly well for him so far. For most of the season the class looked scary bad, but the last few weeks it has quietly moved up into the top 15 with a chance to go a little higher with a little luck tomorrow.

Lexington news said that he also had Southern Cal on his list.

Based on what I've read on him thus far, I'd say that USC is probably a long shot.

Some of our commits are hinting towards a big day. I'd be glad if we got Tiny and one of Wright/Dawson/Jernigan.

I really respect Dooley for doing it the right way. It was so easy to hate UT in the days of Fulmer and Kiffin. It seems like these days the kids are really drawn to those who talk big and act like cheerleaders, but it's really good to see somebody that can coach draw some top talent. Good luck today vols! I've been roooting for you guys since Dooley took over, keep up the progress.

Oh yea and thanks for going through your ordeal because we got this guy now:
