I don't know that an actual offer has been extended yet, but UK is very interested. Hall is an intriguing prospect, in part because of what position he will fit at. A little short for the desired height/arm length for your typical DE in the SEC, and maybe a step slow for LB. It will be interesting to see how he works out in the backfield more than part time and at LB, if indeed Ballard plays him there full time.
All I know is that I love watching him play. I saw football games all across the Southeast last year from Virginia to Florida to Mississippi, including a powerful South Panola team, and Hall would have been an impact starter at any of those schools. He's just relentless, and plays at 100 MPH until the whistle blows. I saw Greeneville 3 times, and Hall had a huge impact every time, including the Trezvant game where he vaporized their QB early in the game.
In contrast, I saw Lamar Dawson play once, and came away seriously underwhelmed. I expected a player with his hype and physique to dominate the game. Instead, in a state semi-final game against an undefeated Bell Co. team, you couldn't have picked him out of the lineup if not for his size. He passed the look test with flying colors, but was very sluggish and looked downright confused at times in a game where I expected him to kick #### and not bother taking names. I'm sure that Dawson is much better than that, but it was a disappointing performance.
