Volunteers drop quarterback Tajh Boyd
ESPNU 150 prospect Tajh Boyd of Phoebus (Hampton, Va.), rated No. 8 among quarterbacks in Class 2009, is no longer headed to Tennessee.
New Vols coach Lane Kiffin has decided not to honor Boyd's earlier commitment due to changes in the offense. Among others, Boyd was also being recruited by Oregon, Florida State, Boston College, Virginia, Virginia Tech and Penn State.
Boyd was once committed to West Virginia, but had second thoughts following the Mountaineers' offensive struggles early in the season. He chose Tennessee a month later.
