When does he enroll? June? July? Someone will probably flip him before then. If I were that kind of back I'd want to go to a school that has been pumping out badass RBs the past few years (Bama, LSU, schools like these) not UT. I like UT as well and hope they can hold him but I would be cautiously optimistic

UT fan - not happening. He was just waiting for Dooley to get out of the door. He's already recruiting for UT along with TKjr and Wharton. It would take a 2-10 season to flip him.

I still don't know wtf Dooley was doing other than being a loser. Kelly Jr. and Hurd bascially have come out and said they wouldn't come if Dooley was there. Vonn Bell was a casualty because of this. I just don't get it.

It's pretty amazing. 0 highschool football games attended during his tenure. What an absolute joke that man is.

We've always had quality RBs that we put in the league; that just stopped because Doofus had a damn graduate assistant coaching RBs his first 2 seasons here and never landed any decent backs during his time here.

Hurd gets us back to normal

Arian Foster has done more than any of those schools runningbacks. I could easily see Trent Richardson being a top 5 back in the NFL tho.

Name the last elite NFL back to come from these schools?

Foster is just the last in a long line of UT backs to have huge success in the NFL.

You sound uneducated and short sighted on the subject.

Trent Richardson has elite potentian. I guess Alabama's last elite back would probably be Shaun Alexander.

Can't think of one for LSU, Addai is probably the best they've put in the league in some time, but he was never anywhere close to elite.

He looked at our depth chart at RB. At Tennessee he's in the two deep from day one. Not so at Ohio State.

Again, nice get.

You frick dumb if you dont consider him elite.

Yeah - I do, frick dumb. Tennessee has had Lewis, Henry, and Foster in the same time frame and after Alexander was in his prime.

And Richardson elite, , hawt damn I guess all NFL backs are elite then.. since Richardson didn't even rush for 1000 yards in 15 games and averaged 3.6 ypc.
