RDAIV to Tennessee?
I apologize if this has already been talked about, but did anyone else see this?
Abernathy's parents address rumor
Oct 10, 8:58 AM
The father of new Tennessee commitment Micah Abernathy on Friday morning downplayed rumors suggesting that Abernathy's older brother, Cincinnati senior running back Ralph David Abernathy IV, also might play for the Vols next year.
The Atlanta Journal Constitution reported Thursday night that rumors recently have connected Tennessee with Ralph David Abernathy IV, who previously played for the Bearcats under Tennessee coach Butch Jones' staff. The report suggested that the Vols have agreed to take Ralph David Abernathy IV "on scholarship as part of a package deal" with Micah Abernathy, a Top247 senior cornerback from Greater Atlanta Christian School in Norcross, Ga.
Ralph David Abernathy IV is expected to take a medical redshirt this season and is on track to graduate from Cincinnati in December, which could allow him to transfer to another Football Bowl Subdivision school next year. But his father, Ralph David Abernathy III, told 247Sports' Rusty Mansell that the possibility of him transferring to Tennessee is only a rumor.
Micah Abernathy's mother, Annette Abernathy, also told the Atlanta Journal Constitution on Friday that Ralph David Abernathy IV transferring to Tennessee next year is "not the current plan."

Can't blame him if he does go at least that staff knew what to do with him.

Don't think he would see the field much at Tennessee.

False. It was a rumor started by the UGa blogger for the AJC the night before his brother committed to Tennessee over Georgia. He basically created his own rumor and tried to stir up some kind of issue. I think it is very unlikely he ends up at Tennessee.

Agreed.
He shouldn't see the field much at UC.
