What I'm hearing about Tyre Brady

Tenn and Kent involved signals terrible grades.

Completely false, regarding Tennessee. I'm familiar with their current environment. If Brady cannot get into Miami, he has no chance of making it into UT. It has been overrun with academia of Tad Foote ilk, and has quietly and literally become more difficult to get into than Vanderbilt. It is a seismic issue, and even undercut Hart's attempts to hire a head coach (you're all familiar with that fiasco).

The APR scores are due significantly to their recent head coach's ineptitude (this time last year he had double-digit players on academic probation) and the draconian scholastic demands put on student-athletes by President Jimmy Cheek and others.

I have no knowledge of Kentucky. Nor do they have knowledge of any kind.

Absolutely ridiculous that it's easier to get into Vanderbilt than Tennessee. Per US news, Vanderbilt's acceptance rate is 16.4%. Tennessee's is 69.7%. That's not even remotely close.

Although some of that is skewed for in state admissions, there is still a wide disparity for out of state. Vandy is #17 and UT is #101 in a rankings methodology that highly values selectivity. To say that UT is harder to get into is a flat out insult to Vandy students.

Do you have the acceptance rates for football players? Do you know what Franklin has negotiated within the University? I'm asking for a friend.

No, I was just responding to the claim that Tennessee has become harder to get into than Vanderbilt.

Maybe your friend can email or call the university and see what's what as it pertains to him.

When were these new admission policies put in place? I remember Dante Phillips not being able to get into UF but being able to get into UT IN 2012.

Phillips was also able to get into UM. Wasn't there a peculiarity is UF's specific reqs that kicked him out? Or the rumor that Muschamp didn't want him, which was possibly verified by Phillips already washing out at UT.

I can see how my comment intimated that, but that wasn't my point.

What was said is he made it through the NCAA clearing house but not into UF. It has happened before. He did horrible is last semester of high school. There was a rumor that once admissions said no Muschamp didn't really fight for him like he could have because he thought he would wash out anyway since he didnt try in high school.

Smh at this whole thread.

He gets an offer everyone goes nuts.

Tito suggest he "might" be looking elsewhere and every ****** recruiting excuse in the manual is tossed out within 10 posts.

******* incredible. Reads like a real piece of **** too.

There is no way in **** Vandy is easier to get into as a football player than UT.

I don't know what you've been told, but that's ridiculous.

One of the consistently regrettable parts of an otherwise fantastic and enjoyable site, IMO.
 
Brady was just talking about committing and now Tennessee and Kentucky are bigger and he wants out of the city?

Smells like Miami got a close look at his transcripts


Bingo. Now hear this. I don't want anymore then one more receiver in this class and I don't want the Alabama kid as a third QB. I want four DT's, four DE's, four LB's, and one more RB and maybe two DB's and that's it.

A week ago the kid said himself that Miami was #1...Brady says he's drawn to UM because it's close to home and because "I see what Miami is building, the kind of program they're building."

But now wants to get away from home?

this what happens when a 6'4 205 pd wr commits...lol...Kentucky nd Tennessee start looking real good....kid is sign and place if he comes here anyway...would still like him but no biggie...Rudolph to me is a better player and would rather put all efforts into flipping him back.

I don't know what you've been told, but that's ridiculous.

Can I ask what basis you have for being so confident? I understand it sounds ridiculous, but that doesn't mean it is. Of course the historical narrative of the two schools makes the suggestion laughable. But putting that history aside, do you know something solid and definitive beyond it?
 
i think we get dixon, lane, langham, rudolph. im hoping for it

Honestly thats a pipe dream. Give me ONE of the three along with Langham and I'll be happy. Of course I'd be so pumped to even get TWO of them but thinking we land all three is naive. Thats just not gonna happen. Regardless of not being scared of competition, 3 elite guys at a skill position want to have a big impact on the game from the get go and getting all three of those guys just won't make it possible for them to all get touches (considering who we already have at WR also......).

I think we end up getting Dixon out of the bunch and that is quite ok with me, the kids a freak of nature. However, like I said, if we can get two of them I will take any combination of the three but thats gonna be tough.

My educated guess tells me Dixon to da U, Lane to bama, and Rudolph to UFag.

//no idea on brady
