Sentimore I agree.... | A lot is riding on Miller, Williams and Saulsberry this year. Miller especially. They also say Fowlkes is up to 260.
I think the biggest question mark is the untested McCullers. If you think about it Bohannon and Couch (toward the end of last season) are the only two proven lineman we have. |

| We're better equipped to deal with injuries with the bodies we have now. For awhile there it seemed like UT was one torn acl away from being completely screwed. |

but how can you include the FS in the box in a 3-4?
on early downs with no blitz package called we will more than likely be in a 2 shell or a cover 3... how can a FS be in the box in either of those coverages?
I agree about Taylor... he performed well in the spring as an EE.... he could provide 10 quality reps a game..... |

This may have been why #37 was seen in the box in the spring game. |

| spring game randolph was the Only Safety who is capable of playing in the box.
Orta and BMoore do not and can not excel within 7 yards of the LOS |
