Hunter Johnson commits to Tennessee

Not questioning Frank but Tennessee has 4 QBs between last years class and this years that were/are top 250 prospects who were also top 8 in their position rankings. Its not like the path to success is any better there. Besides if Wimbush burns his shirt this year Johnson will have two years to wait max before he is in position to take the reins.
No offense but I think MFrank is more in tune with recruits and recruiting. Mike isn't prone to wild speculation which is basically what this board is all about because we aren't close enough to the situation.

I am not saying Frank is wrong. I am suggesting that if that is the case that makes little sense, high school kids don't always make sense.
 
I am taking a postion. Frank said Johnson wouldn't admit wimbush was a factor but that he believed it was because of how good Wimbush is. I am saying that may be true but if it is true that doesn't make sense. My faith in that assessment would be stronger if Frank said something along the lines "I am hearing..."

ND will get good QB I believe you are right on that. However i am not sure the guy they get will be as good as Johnson but that's because I think Johnson is really really impressive as a sophmore. If the staff thought others were close to Johnson more offers would be out at QB this year and next.

so all you guys know more than Kelly what Kelly wants?!

HJ alone was the QB target of the staff; maybe next time you guys should shoot Kelly an E Mail!

good grief! fans, some, will try to spin anything according to ever changing attitudes.

With that said, do you have any thoughts on where ND looks for a '17 QB at this point in the process?

Johnson said he just always really felt comfortable at Tennessee and didn't see any reason to wait. Maybe its just that simple. Especially if a kid is confident and not particularly concerned with competing for the job.
 
I wouldn't mind stealing Tennessee's QB commit for this year's class.

Agree with this post and the last one about him feeling comfortable at Tennessee. Just wish ND had kept him in state. There are other options and this isn't going to kill the cycle, just thought ND had a really good shot here (they did) and would have loved to see the core of the class have Johnson in the fold.
