At first glance his hair looked like a coonskin hat, a la Davy Crockett.

Brent Key looks lost in thought in that last pic.

Another literary gem from our new friend on BOL: quote: Yea who wouldn’t take that heard Eddie Smith is coming. If Nigel transfers or somebody else does that give us another spot. Got otherwise same list as you do weedline but Walker staying most likely. That’s from what i heard not imo but who knows. Would staff already know who’s transferring at this point i wonder. Guy supposedly connected he very well could be been money in the past but nothing tea leaves wouldn’t tell you save two examples. Surtain is silent he believes who knows would love to get him. Thinks temples kicker is ours too but may have to do with schollies idk. How bad is Bulovas n could he improve enough with our first special teams coach we scratch temple guy. I want him too not pretending I know but maybe we have another transfer or two leaving we don’t know about. Wouldn’t rule out Walker yet.


The first post I understood what he was saying for the most part but this one hurts my head. Straight out of the gate I have no idea what he is trying to say about Eddie Smith.

I think he's trying to say (1) he heard Smith, Surtain, Walker and the Temple grad transfer kicker are coming, (2) a rumored Nigel Knott transfer may open another spot, and (3) he hopes that spot lets us take Sewell too.

I don't believe the "size" argument for Knott transferring.

Shyheim is like 6' 195
Knott is 5'11 185
Levi was 6' 185
Averett was 6'0 185

Yea he just not going to get to play that's all. Last two championships we won I believe he was in sweatpants, also Levi is even smaller than that. He was 170ish at the senior bowl.

IIRC Levi had the flu or something before the game. But yeah, he weighed in lower than listed.

Knott was RS the first year, so I understand the sweats then. This year I know he was battling an injury later in the season(Crutches) so it might just be that they rested him. The only reserve CB we really ran that game was Shyheim anyway. I don't remember Diggs popping in.

Every recruits comment I look under on twitter I see nothing but Vol fans. They should be shame of themselves.

Wallace and Averett both weighed in about 175 at the senior bowl. So weight certainly wasn't the biggest factor. Maybe knott is struggling to be physical at that size more so than they were, but Averett and Wallace both took about 3 years to hit the field too. That should give knott some optimism that his time is still to come

You know I think he just isn't good enough or maybe the rumors are BS. Because one of the best safeties we've had the last couple years would avoid contact like no other. Eddie Jackson. Hootie Jones wasn't physical either.

ear. Also he likes Mathis and thinks he starts next year but says Raekwon will see time inside too with Dwight as well with Dwight playing sparingly.


Tried to tell you guys in the Depth Chart Post I made that Phidarian Mathis was going to be the man. My insider on Twitter said he’s the best player from the 2017 class. Redshirted though because of Payne/Raekwon

You don't need an Insider to know that Mathis would be the man. He is the only person freaking available.
