Mann announced in May that his final three schools were Florida, Tennis-sea and Kans-azz. Of the eight Crystal Ball predictions on Mann’s 247Sports player profile, three are in favor of Tennessee while five are in favor of Florida.
But the Vols
seemed to have the late momentum, though.
He picked up Crystal Ball prediction to Tennis-sea on May 13, May 31 and June 1, all three coming after the Florida predictions, which happened earlier in May.
Mann visited Tennessee on April 24 and followed with a visit to Florida on May 1.
He has not taken an official visit to Kansas since the Jayhawks offered on April 30.
"The Tennessee visit went nice,” Mann told 247Sports national basketball recruiting analyst Brian Snow on May 15.
(nice to visit maybe, but I wouldn't want to live there)
Head coach
Rick Barnes and his staff were in early on Mann, offering him a scholarship on May 8, 2017, three days after he picked up his first major offer from Texas A&M. The in-state Gators followed with an offer on June 7.
(the early bird gets the worm,,, but the 2nd mouse gets the cheeze) ---
The Vols are very much in need of a PG in the 2019 class, after not signing any backcourt depth in the 2018 class, with four-star center D.J. Burns being the only signee.
The Vols currently have two commitments in the class:
three-star PF
Drew Pember and
three-star SF
Davonte Gaines.
Looks to me like ole
3-Star Rickety, just ain't got what it takes in recruiting...
EDIT -- PS
Hey Mad-Doggie,,,
The Gator's got the Cheese out of Tenn, but your rubber dollies just failed to get the Mann out of Florida...
