Volunteers retain commitment

Posted: Friday January 04, 2008 06:37AM ET

After hinting for weeks that he might withdraw his commitment from Tennessee and pledge his allegiance to South Carolina, Stephens County running back Tauren Poole is now set to become a full-fledged Volunteer. The 5-foot-10.5, 197-pound running back graduated from Stephens County (Ga.) in late December and plans to enroll at Tennessee this month.

Okay. I care because?

You shouldn't. SI is just ridiculous for saying the guy is 5-foot-10.5, like they're trying to exaggerate his height or something.

Report Offensive Comment

Thanks. I have no clue why this is story. I never heard of him. No problem with recruiting news, but they should at least comment on bigger names that most of us have heard of.

Yawning.... File this one under "Who Cares?"
