| We all know that Neal has the most "potential" out of the group. We also know that there is definite concern about ball security. I really hope that all Neal needed was a good running back coach to teach proper technique and we can see him have a coming out party! | |

| Tennessee's best rushing year in recent memory featured two 1000 yd rushers who both brought different skills to the table. Let's hope we have that this year. |

( was a heck of a back for coalfield in hs some of you may have heard of him) and he had a fumbling problem for a few practices straight so our coach gave him a ball to hold onto all through practice and if anyone brought the coach the ball then that player got out of conditioning the next three days and the rbs had to do double conditioning. There were almost fist fights over that ball but nobody ever took it from him and it basically fixed the problem. | |

As far negavols and their tails, I mean tales, you know how it is with slimy things. | I know they can pop up. I just recall a few posters saying he was gone after DD mentioned his work ethic and fumbling. Another one of those threads full of great info from solid posters. Same ones as the unc bs. | |

| Im not sure many have ever question his athletic ability. Not sure Im ready to expect Jamal Lewis to walk out against NC St. tho.

| The measurables on this guy have never really been in question. Then again there's a long and rich history of "workout warriars" that never seemed to be able to translate those measurables onto the field well.
Let's hope RN manages to have the production match the potential this season.

Guys who run an NFL timed sub-4.4 forty are extremely rare, and unfortunately I doubt Rajion Neal is one of them. I would love to be wrong. | |
