| I'm starting to get worried a little bit. Ben Martin could be a huge loss if it's bad. I'm not quite as worried as I would be if he were older though, because sometimes the younger guys make a bigger deal about injuries than the older ones. I'm also worried about the facts that O'Neal has yet to dominate like I thought he would, and Vinson has been awful. Those guys were supposed to be 2 of the biggest 3 playmakers, the third being Coker who is suspended. The good news is I haven't heard many complaints about the line yet, so that is a plus, and Darnius Moore may be a huge brightspot in this freshman class. I'm tellin' ya, we know how to play high school football here in Texas. |

I have heard nothing good about them in fall practice other than "they're fast." i'm with you though, I thought that O'Neal would have stepped up by now.

| Good news from the scrim was that the WRs had no missed assignments, never lined up incorrectly, etc.

| Is everyone more upset that the new guys are not playing well? Could it be that the guys in our system from last year actually have a better grasp on the offense? From the sounds of things, the new guys aren't picking up on the scheme as quickly as hoped. The drops (as discussed in another thread ad nauseum) are discouraging by the TEs and WRs. But, from the interviews with Cut and gang, it is not the norm in practice. The O-line, from what I am reading and hearing, is kicking some a%$. If we can run the ball, I am sure that play-action will open up some routes for our guys, no matter who they are.

"There was more consistency," UT Coach Phillip Fulmer said. "You take away the drops and offensively you probably have a pretty good day. I've been on both sides of this coin. Tomorrow it could be completely different."

| That USM game is a trapper if I have ever seen one. Scary game for the Vols.
