Carter picks Vols over gumps and buckeyes!
Tennessee it is!

- Start date
We will soon hear that Bama really didn't want him.

4* Top 15 LB top3 Kid in the state of TN.
One of the big questions about Heupel was could he get the defense recruits.. it certainly looks like he can. Carter gives them 9 players rated as a 4* or higher on the defensive side of the ball so far.

I'll save PDB the trouble: "He's garbage. We don't need him. He was going to be a bench warmer at ALABAMA."

Congrats. I was hoping Bama would land him. He should be good.
I may be wrong, but I have a feeling NIL played a big factor.
I'm not a fan of NIL as far as the way the game is going, but if it's the way recruiting is played now, I'm glad we're at the forefront.
I'd say you're right. I don't like it either but seems to be leveling the playing field with those that were doing it anyway. I know they were all doing it just some better than others.

It's a big factor at most Power 5 programs now. He had 41 offers including USC, bama, UF, Michigan, Ohio St ....ect.....
He will get a good NIL deal at UT but he would have at any of those Schools.and if he couldn't those Schools need to get it In gear because that's how college football is going to work now
Just glad UT is keeping Tennessee boys in the state instead of Clemson now.

Had like 3 or 4 visits to Bama? You know little Nicky tried every trick in the book.
My son graduated from Smyrna in 21 and my old neighbor is Smyrna's football coach. Good guy but haven't talked to him in a while. Just good to see Huepel and crew keeping top recruits in state unlike last year.

It all came down to NIL $$$. Good prospect. Alabama will win with him or without him.

Hopefully he'll stay where he signs for all of his academic years but, a kid that coveted will be encouraged everyday of his career to transfer somewhere else. Where he starts isn't necessarily where he ends up in four or five years. I'm hoping UT can keep him.

More than most teams, and they have came a long way in 2 years, you cannot deny that
How long was Bama ranked #1?
This is an excellent point. Too easy to transfer without penalty now.
