The best HS football players that aren't committed in Tennessee? ?

Brandon Donaldson from Henry County. 

 

As of a month or so ago, he hadn't even received an offer, and that is crazy to me. With all of the smaller schools that are in close proximity to us (UT Martin, Bethel, Murray State, Austin Peay, etc.), I find it hard to believe that none of them could use a 6'4" WR who was a 3 year starter at a 5A powerhouse, won 2 state rings as a starter, and shattered pretty much every single-season receiving record in school history this past year.

 

He's also about 50 points shy of becoming our basketball program's all time leading scorer. Just a really good all around athlete.

Nick Mclilly of Humboldt had several D-1 offers after junior year but had a injury to knee during Jamboree but came back the last two (2) games of the season & played three (3) games in play offs. I guess schools are nervous due to injury but he's looking good on the basketball team with no issues. Rushed for almost 2400 yards as a junior in only ten (10) games & he is a athlete at 6'2 195 &  built like a tank, should make it to state again in the 400 meters!!!! That's why I try to tell these kids you need to commit early because if you don't & get hurt schools will not take a chance, Vanderbilt & several D-1 schools offered him a full scholarship after junior season & he didn't take it, was waiting for other offers, now I haven't heard anything about any schools.

Sounds like a sleeper for someone to get. I sure hope he gets a chance to continue his career in college football if that is what he wants to do. Good luck to him.

Austin Herink from Cleveland hasn't signed anywhere. He was the Chattanooga Times Free Press 1st team Chattanooga area QB & led CHS to 5A semi-finals.

 

He has the size, heart & work ethic to be a great college QB, but maybe not the 40 time. I think he will be a steal for whoever gets him.

Herink committed to University of Memphis.

Great kid.

    • The Sheriff has agreed to provide help.  Waiting on Mr Basketball…… @Sackmaster50 and @AlphaNiner are in the cupboard. 
    • Began as a discussion, and evolved into a trainwreck...   Don't know how many of the TC "old guard" are left, but I feel for y'all.   Everybody has to get the last word... no matter the cost and sometimes the cost is high.
    • He may have possibly said that to get the best out of him. Back when I was in school word got out I was going to transfer and Coach Story popped off and ask Coach Wilson in front of the team if Maryville was going to get a jock strap in return on this trade. That got back to me and I got fired up and stayed just to show them up. Now today Coach Story is one of my best friends.
    • Dylan's Dad, I'm glad you replied. I wanted to reply but wasnt willing to take the bait. There were 20 wrestlers on the team. I may be mistaken and correct me if I'm wrong but I believe 5 of the 20 attend McCallie right now and one will next year. At most, there are/were 6 kids on that team who attend McC. That leaves 14 other team members who have ZERO affiliation with McC (outside of maybe some friends) who represented our state to the best of their ability and wrestled their butts off that weekend. That weekend was a first for Tennessee and obviously a small step in the right direction for us as a state. Congratulations TEAM TN BLACK!
    • Danny Wilson is the only one that come's to mind but I don't know where he is at now.
