Preston Williams, a four star receiver, took an official visit to Auburn this past weekend. Tennessee fans were nervous that Williams, a Vol commit since September of 2013, might be wavering on his commitment to Tennessee. What if, be still their big orange hearts, he flipped to Auburn?!

Then something strange happened. The buzz fizzled and Williams left Auburn's campus early.

What happened?

According to Rocky Top Insider, Vol fans didn't need to worry.

"Williams did end up making the trip, but ended up leaving the visit a day early. The rumors out of Auburn were that Williams was "being a distraction" and "disrupting the weekend," but we are hearing that Williams was actually asked to leave by Auburn staff members because he showed up wearing nothing but Tennessee apparel and was actively recruiting other visitors to join him at Tennessee."

Well, I'll be damned.

"I didn't plan on going," he said.

Williams said it's true that he was wearing Tennessee apparel during the trip, which he said upset Auburn staff members.

"They told me to take it off," he said. "They were getting mad."

Purdue needs to employ this strategy for their recruits. Hey, maybe they'll actually get some guys that make a difference.

I find it funny Auburn reacted the way they did since they had Carl Lawson do the exact same thing on a Clemson official visit.

Nice W against IU last night. Mackey was loud.

That's hilarious. I do love that the SEC has this kind of culture to it. I wouldn't want to see it replicated everywhere else but it's nice that those Southerners can entertain us with these stories.

Poor little utk.

maybe auburn should play them like a wake forest.

utk hasnt beaten auburn since 1999.


utk has a long history of being idiots and running that mouth.

remember ewick bewry, he wast the last vol that lipped off at auburn

ewick bewry, before auburn really good for a laugh



Eric Berry for Heisman? Sorry, but no.

Auburn running back Ben Tate derailed that fleeting notion when he lowered his shoulder in the third quarter of the Tigers' 26-22 Saturday win over the Vols and flung the Tennessee safety through the air like a rag doll.


ewick bewry on the field

Excellent, I now definitely approve of Memphis being in that 20 team AAC conference of the future. Your players start fights and you just went off on Tennessee over this. There needs to be more true hatred come forward from the South.

You guys all know how us Big Ten and MAC folks get along. It is so annoying to watch the G5 folk of the South not firing off like Shere Khan just did. Well done.

That being said, I am very interested in what Tennessee does this coming year. They could be surprising.

Yeah, yeah yeah. Iowa has something that Cincy wants but will never have no matter how many times Cincy might beat them.
