yeah swc haven't you heard the Davy Crockett theme song?

@ChrisLevel Chris Level
I fully expect one of the state's top LB's, Dalton Santos, to announce for A&M tomorrow but Tenn has a shot. @NickZelinski will be there.

Hey----Bringiing a Southern State "Put downs" DOES NOT fly--- It is about recruiting-- TAKE IT OUT ON ut----OLD HICKORY and SAM HOUSTON sipped TENNESSE WHISKEY at the HERMITAGE!!!

Come on Dalton, bring the pain to Aggieland...!!

Just a random thought. Looking at last years rankings on ESPN for ILB. The 4th best rated ILB was Steve Edmond, but he managed to be the 55th best overall. Yet Dalton Santos is the number 1 at his respective position, but is barely cracking the top 100. Just doesnt make any sense whatsoever.

That's because Rivals, often times, is full of ****.

Steve Edmond, hmm wonder how that cat will turn out? Kid grew up less than 10 miles from me and I never heard of him until the cows came calling.

When Santos did not commit to Tennessee shortly after his visit here most felt that A&M would be a fairly quick winner. Now, the longer he waits has become a good sign for Tennessee.

Logically, Tennessee is the right answer for Santos because of the SEC style of football fits his own style of play. It appears that the holdup might well be the actual decision of leaving home -- not his family because they have already indicated a willingness to move here should he choose Tennessee. What cannot be moved with him is the place where he grew up, where all his friends are, and where he is most comfortable. It is hard to give all of that up, and it is a little bit like the grieving process but in the end it is all a part of growing up.

I like our position and what we have to offer him.

the "willingness to move" includes a job for pops.

That's the part I can't figure. Is the family just very well situated and can live anywhere? How nice would that be?? I don't know any people that would just up and move to Tennessee so their son can feel comfortable playing football there - and I know some very well off people, too. Must be an extraordinary family.

OR did Pop's just "find" a better job in Tenneessee? Ummmmm. Curious situation is all I'm saying.

My understanding is Tenn offered his Dad a job...

They also have 2 other kids, one of which is going to be a star at Van. Are they really going to yank their kids out of school just so their family can watch him play in college?

He has already changed his commitment once... He will likely change it again....looks like he doesn't know where he really wants to go!!!

SEC strikes again. If we were SEC this wouldn't have been a decision for him or many others.
