First, thanks for the awesome coverage of the OW Weekend as well as the Charlotte and Aloca camps. Some questions coming out of the spring:
1) Any word on how the visit went for CJ Lewis (or his teammate Holmes, for that matter)? Seems like the QB board is basically him and Sears, and I find it strange that we haven't heard much if anything about how Sears's visit went a week or so ago. Thoughts on the QB situation at the moment?
2) Think we lead for Marchiol? Seems like it, so...I assume he is a take? If so that's 3 LBs unless Burnham is an Austin-Smith type (i.e., a future DE). Would we take all of Burnham/Page/Marchiol/Gray/Taylor/Wooten (the latter 3 of which I think we lead for) and then let the actual college positions sort themselves out? Thinking that at least 1-2 of Burnham/Taylor/Wooten are Austin-Smith types and that Gray could potentially be a S/LB hybrid...
3) Sticking with Gray, what do you make of his tweet with Fant? Just a matter of time on those two IYO?
4) At TE, fair to say that we seem to be fading with Dotson after Elder left (pending a return visit and meeting Scott, at least) and surging with McKitty, with those appearing to be the current Top 2 with no clear #3 on the TE board to pair with Rogers? Heard anything about McKitty's visit? He looks like a stud to my untrained eye.
5) How many OL do you think they'd like to take? Seems like a really strong board to me (below), especially now adding guys like Billy Ross and TJ Moore as guys who like the Vols a lot. Agree?
Trey Smith (EE)
Tony Gray
Adrian Ealy
Kai-Leon Herbert
Kadeem Telfort
Jedrick Wills
Obinna Eze
Toryque Bateman
Jordan Reid
Patrick Leitten
Caden Williams
Andrew Thomas
Chuck Filiaga
Riley Locklear
Jordan Tucker
Nick Brahms
Billy Ross
TJ Moore
6) Where do you think Ben Hutch is on our DT board?
7) Finally, have a preliminary look at where the staff is going first thing when the eval period opens?
Thanks as always @P_Fortenberry @Brent_Hubbs
