Well...see you later Melancon.

Seriously how good would a 260 DT be in the SEC anyway.

He's a good example of why UT looks good in recruiting and bad on the field.

Well...I know there are exceptions to what I'm about to say...but at 6'2", in order to put on the amount of weight he would need to be effective in the SEC he would probably have to do some things that could land us on probation...

And as far as potential is concerned...look at Demonte Bolden.

Sorry guys, but it is hard to put any positive spin on losing a d lineman these days.

I see we lost another scholar athlete. Why can't we recruit guys who aren't morons? It is no wonder we have so many recruiting busts...

I don't know Cardassian, because alot of the guys that didn't qualify were recruited just as hardly by many other SEC teams.

Not a huge deal. There are plenty of other DL that want to play for the University of Tennessee.
