He's kicking himself for not coming to Auburn, our coaches would have made a player out of him

Possibly. The changes in Strength and Conditioning Coaches between Kiffin and Dooley killed him. He had one of the best seasons returning kicks in Tennessee history as a frosh, and played some at RB and in the slot. Kiffin wanted to expand that role, but wanted him to get even faster. Then the new S&C coach convinced him he needed to become an every down back. He added about 20 pounds of muscle, and was stuck right in between. Too small to be an every down back, too slow to be a great all purpose guy.
