How silly! When was the last time a QB morphed into a solid WR!

Farh CBJ!

 

[orangemadam]

Walk-on?

 

[Go Fight Win]

May be having a new QB commit here soon too

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

He had a few decent offers. Doubt he sees the field.

 

[Nocleats]

Saw him in HS, good athlete, smart, faster than you think

I am guessing Jawan Jennings.

Solid athlete (6-4 high jumper, 21-6 long jumper) with decent speed (11.3 100 in high school).

Interesting footnote: His dad Jim, who was an all-SEC QB at Ole Miss in '64, is a renowned songwriter who penned "Midnight Train to Georgia."

When there was a hail mary catch just before halftime against florida a decade and a half ago.

Apparently......... No

 

[Hairy Vols]

I would assume it's possible this is his dream school and he loves UT. I hope to see lots of TD catches from him in the future! Welcome to Orange Country. It's gonna look great on you kid!!!!!

Funny, I was thinking about when there was a Hail Mary catch just as the game was ending against UGA last yeat

I don't know how to change it on my phone to blue. But, then again, since everyone else on VN uses sarcasm to a detriment, I figure I might as well also!

 

[Titan&Volfan4life]

He was also a sTate Champion high jumper so he can get up for high passes.

Good BB player too so he's a solid athlete.

This kid could turn into something special in a year or 2 as a WR.

Time will tell.

WELCOME young man!

VFL...GBO!!!

About as much as the people that use them understand that sarcasm rarely works in text, regardless of font color.

 

[Brave Volunteer]

For some reason, I didn't think FCS players could transfer up to FBS schools. He must be walking on.

 

[dcm3w]

Is he eligible for this season?

First, glad to have you Weatherly, thanks for coming to UT. I wanted to comment on this post though, it's going twitter as we speak.

Maybe make it it's own thread, what ever.

Martinez has a thread in the recruiting forum. Would be a nice pickup if we flip him.

Apparently his dad is also quite a stud, also, having fathered a son somewhere in his 50s.

Wondering too? Redshirt have any effect?

I remember his dad, Jim, very well. He was one of the best QB's in the country and gave us fits. Coach Johnny Vaught had our number back in the '60's. Back then, Ole Miss always had tall rangey offensive linemen and they would take wide splits that seemed to give the Vols defensive line problems.

OK, now for the obvious question. Since I don't follow the Mocs, I hopefully assume he didn't quit on them mid season like a certain drama queen did for us last year.

But if he did, why are we excited to get him? Since he is changing schools AND positions, I have to ask.
