Brandon Powell de-commits from Tennessee; commits to UM

[Boarcane]

If he commits is Berrios out? I would take Powel ahead if that is the case

no it speaks more towards our relationship and inability to flip cook than berrios.

Totally disagree with that, his brother and teammates are here, you know he will be on campus more and the staff doesnt quit on a talent like him. I love Powell but he isnt on Cooks level so you go hard for Cook everyday and if we have Berrios, Powell and Cook wants in guess what? He's in before he finishes his sentence

lol you got it before i deleted it. Sorry man but sad and true( if cooks wants in he's in BUT he's solid as fvck to uf right now. This staff has a TON of ground to make up. As it stands right now we have no shot at him. Things change but right now he's 100% ****

He was solid to Clemson forever even while taking visits to every school he could just like right now...... yeah that really meant something. Im not worrying about him now because he will be a constant question but seriously nobody should just say he's solid because he changes his mind all the time

sorry man but USC has a better shot at him than us right now. We are not in the game.

Nash doesn't even have pubes and he's breaking major stories.

How do you know??

LMAO!!!!!!

They wonder why they're like the 6th best program all time in the SEC and will never win another National Title

we can talk smack to them but what our fan-base did after Dorsetts dropped passes lsat year was disgusting. Every fan-base has a bunch of idiots

Yea, I just hate it when people say our fans are the worst and cite stuff like this as their exhibit A. Trash like this happens too much, and it happens all over the country.

Great adjunct to both Yearby and our receiving corps potentially. Welcome to the fam. (eventually)

Yes. Powell is the definition of a all-purpose back. He gets lots of checkdown catches.

Percy Harvin, DeAnthony Thomas and Tavon Austin clone would you say?

He doesn't have that next level burst those guys have, but as far as cutting ability, agility, and versatile, he is in that category.

Wut? His burst is his main strength.

Yes it is his main strength, but I don't think it's on the same level as Percy, DAT, and Tavon

He reminds me of Tavon ALOT as a matter of fact.

 

[Canes2082]

Some nice Vols fans wishing he tears his ACL, Achillies and Miniscus on twitter.... Stay classy Vols

 

[SoFlaSmitty]

I don't want him to commit till Feb 5. When it's final

 

[CaneOrDie94]

I agree with the comparisons regarding cutting ability. I think what makes him special is his vision and feel. Very instinctive runner ala duke. Not same size but his patience reminds me of McGhee. Unfortunate he doesn't have that "next level" speed burst. Will be a nice addition of incredible athletes to the class.

I think Swasey can improve that burst and his overall speed when/if he comes.

 

[Problem2]

Someone ask the Tennessee fans if Powell can bring his brick to Coral Gables.

There is room to make up, but to say Miami is not in it and that USC is ahead of Miami is just wrong

 

[jnw4563]

Powell and Dixen, then call it a day. Berry can still come if we have room.

We are even with usc and everyone else right now. last time we went back and fourth it was about Bain. I told you he was talented and LSU was serious. You told me he wasn't starting and he was overrated. FWIW Your a really good kid doing a great job. However, sometimes you value one mouth over two ears. We are NOT IN IT RIGHT NOW.

What does Bain have to do with anything? It's fact he didn't start at DT last year. I still don't think he was a great prospect either. Just because a school takes him doesn't mean he's legit. And it's not like I was the only person saying I didn't like Bain as a prospect

On Cook, Miami is in the game.

 

[Problem2]

Lol boarcane, another moron.

 

[jerzeycane]

Aye BC...stop patronizing Pete.

This is recruiting and unbeknownst to you, there exist a possibility that you are JUST as wrong as you think Pete is on this.

Shut up and let it go.

 

[Peter Ariz]

No clue what you mean by this. I go and watch these kids multiple times in different settings and form my own opinion

 

[eliteproxy]

I am still ****ed at Pete for making us wait 3 hours today to announce Powell's de-commitment.
