As the safeties broke into their first period of individual work, there were two groups drilling pattern-matching coverage techniques. One group had a safety and Star and the other had just one safety.
The first tandem in the former was Andre Turrentine at safety and Christian Harrison at Star, followed by Boo Carter at Star with Christian Charles at safety. In the latter group, Will Brooks led off followed by Jakobe Thomas. The safeties looked to switch groups at one point to get reps on a drill that would appear to be simulating different sides of the field (since the Vols’ safety spots are more interchangeable than the old free safety-strong safety positions).
Harrison going through drills ahead of Carter is more notable because he “started” the scrimmage the other night, so perhaps he shouldn’t be written off quite yet.

The Harrison kid should have the traits of his dad to be a good safety/corner.
I heard it's a Harrison vs Boo battle.

Pretty much those 2 or no star.
WR/TE Depth Chart:
- 1s: X - Bru McCoy, Y - Squirrel White, Z - Kaleb Webb, H - Ethan Davis
- 2s: X - Dont'e Thornton, Y - Chas Nimrod, Z - Chris Brazzell II, H - Miles Kitselman
- 3s: X - Nathan Leacock, Y - Dayton Sneed, Z - Nate Spillman, H - Holden Staes
- Mike Matthews was running with the 4s as he continues to recover from an early-fall injury that held him out for a while
Bru McCoy doesn't look limited in any way.
After rough opening sessions to practice that the media was able to view yesterday for Nico Iamaleava, he looked perfect today. Every throw was where it needed to be.
Jake Merklinger missed one throw high he'll want back but besides that, he did a nice job today, as well. Some backup receivers were dropping passes but it was rarely a quarterback issue on those.

The catching crew is so deeply stacked a rotation can easily be setup. Five wide receiver sets, three TE sets, especially near the goal line. Running back is deep as well. Davis has the ability to be a hybrid.

My gripe with the receiving group is that while it seems to be deep, you don't really see an alpha emerging either. I guess maybe Brazzel has a chance and Mike Matthews could be that guy in the future. But a team of 4-5 WR2 and WR1B type guys would still be hard to deal with for most defenses.
