He always loved UM. I remember there was a recruiting show where Barton Simmons hosted that got canceled but whatever anyway he said months before NSD that there were a few schools who were interested in him playing both sports but he added how UM was his dream school who could get him with an offer. I remember raving about him and posting 247 a lot because I'd read on UT board how people were begging for him to stay home. Anyway a couple months after NSD he was on Twitter one morning and was answering questions and as a lame I asked why hasn't UM offered and he said he didn't know and I joked I'd email them to offer him just joking around and literally the next morning at 9 am I saw he committed apparently in the spot like Barton Simmons said he would and the rest is histoey

Kid was a high 4 star on rivals. I dont know if that was for football or basketball.

I went to school in Nashville. His favorite sport is basketball and wanted to play both. Us and GT were only real schools who offered both. Auburn and OSU wanted him just for football but he was adamant on giving basketball a chance. Being a fan of his since HS its awesome to see this side of him cause he's considered one of the best RB's in TN history. Had an awesome career with Ensworth
