BREAKING: Commit No. 6 is in the books

[C-Bow]

MT has landed local DE/TE Chris Myers out of LaVergne. Myers is the younger brother of former TSU standout - and now Baltimore Raven - Robert Myers.

I had this scooped last night, but Chris wanted to go public with it so I held off. You guys need to get in the Lounge!

Here's a quick FREE write-up on Myers.

GoMiddle Subs - I should have an interview locked down with Myers soon. I'll have that for you as well. Stay tuned.

He is also the younger brother of former MT WBB player Stephanie Myers

He sure is! That is one athletic family, that's for sure.

Another mid-state commit. Are we working the area more or is there just more talent at "our level"?

I think a bit of both, honestly.

It's not that MT hasn't worked the mid-state area in the past. Trust me, they have, but the area has traditionally been so top-heavy. This year, I think there's a good mix of prospects, and you're seeing MT be able to compete in these waters.

I like his size. Hopefully he is a legit 6-5 and not 6-3 1/2 like it seems most of the kids are.

Big question is whether we hold on to him not. I remember another kid that committed to us a few years back from Lavergne HS, who flipped to Kentucky at the last minute....

He is a legit 6'5". He told me he was 6'6", but I'll stick with the former on the height.

Just a side note, if you ever select a prospect's profile and you see them wearing Rivals gear or with a Rivals banner behind them, they were measured that day at whatever camp they were at. Those vitals are verified by the national analysts.

Yeah and I hear next years crop of recruits will be in even more supply. We could really help ourselves by putting quite a few W's on the board.
