Well, we've lost our defensive coordinator and our best recruiter. Two-thirds of the recruiting class was defense. I'm sure you can put one and one together. This will be updated with recruiting news when it comes.
Khalid Henderson, 3* linebacker, decommitted from Tennessee last night, saying he loved Tennessee and it definitely wasn't him. Rumors abound that he's been told to look around.
Keithon Redding, 3* WR who chose us over Alabama and Georgia Tech, decommitted this morning.
UPDATE 12:33 Keithon Redding, despite Scout reporting a decommittment, has texted Josh Ward saying he's still a Vol.
UPDATE 12:53 Okay, so nobody knows what Redding is doing. "I'm open to any school." Dalton Santos, our big middle linebacker commit, is rumored to be decommitting and looking at Washington. LB Otha Peters is rumored to be looking elsewhere. More when it becomes official.
UPDATE 1:03 Keithon Redding officially decommitted
UPDATE 2:06 Danny O'Brien, the only high school DT we have committed, has told 247 he'll be thinking about things today and will likely decide tomorrow whether or not he's still a Vol. Otha Peters is still a UT commit but will look around and see who UT hires. Santos says he loves Tennessee but now has a lot to think about. Most expect him to be gone
UPDATE 6:31 Kenneth Crawley (DB) tweets "currently a Vol." Take from that what you will.
UPDATE 9:01 He's an offensive recruit, but can I just point out the awesome that is Alden Hill. From this twitter:
For those who say they are true Vols, we will kno soon enough.From here on out it's going to be an uphill battle. Im in, who's with me?
#VFL
Otha Peters responds to Hill "I'm with you bra." Good sign, I suppose.

Danny O'Brien would be the biggest loss possible, in my opinion.
We need to figure out who our DC is fast.

agree on both counts

I too agree 100%
we need a DC in place ASAP so we can start some damage control

Sheesh
The Vol’s house has been on fire since Kiffin ducked out. Somebody call the KFD, quick.

Man Hill is just the type of recruit that we need more of....
he will be an instant favorite this fall.
bullrider73 - January 2, 2012
he's also making fun of people's grammar/spelling
and correctly using the word “irony.” Color me impressed
Incipient_Senescence - January 2, 2012
I for one have no room for making fun of people's spelling....
but when you mentioned this the first thing that popped in my head is a direct shot across the bow of Arnett?

Alden Hill is my new favorite Vol.
