I'd expect offensively he will be. Probably not on defense...

That's just nuts. You're setting yourself up for a huge disappointment if you think he will be. Remember how Hopson was supposed to replace Chris and JaJuan...

Tobias is not Hopson.

Now, I'm not saying he definitely will be better than Chism, I'm just curious what Vol fans think.

Scotty didn't have the skills of Harris coming out of high school. I'm not saying he will replace Wayne , but we are going to rely on Harris for a decent amount of our offense.

Have you seen his game tape? I think offensively, he will be the best Frosh in the nation.

Tobias will score the points but will his defense matter that much with the new Brian Williams?

Dont expect him to be as good offensively because your setting your self up for failure. Remember BJ Mullens. His tape was out of this world and he struggled mightily.

I think that Williams will step-up big time and will be a great leader.

I think people have been let down by our last several cant miss freshman and have unrealistically low expectations for Harris.

Yes, Harris as a true freshman will be as good or better than Chism. All Pearl has to work on with him is defense, but athletically there is not a great comparison on offense.

I love Wayne and will miss him, but Harris is the most talented player at UT physically since Houston and the best NBA prospect since that time as well.

Mullens and Harris are two completely different types of players. I could be wrong, but Harris will probably be our leading scorer next year.
