Gerald Williams

How many years if Gerald Williams going to help pad Phil's recruiting service rankings without ever playing a down at UTK? This is ridiculous. Take him out and I'll bet UTK wouldn't even be ranked in the Top 50 right now.

Cool

Why beat down on recruit. This young man bleeds orange and we need him at our school. He has did everything he can to try to get here and that is the kind of players we need on this team.

It isnt really padding the recruiting system because he doesnt count in the end if he doesnt get in...But I agree with the last few posts, he WANTS to be in orange...

It would have been easy for him to quit and become just another of the many players who dissapear into oblivion after being inelligible but he continued to fight back. I hope the best for him

I've been working too hard to keep up with any real news the past few days. I assume he entered school?

The only early enrollees have been Austin Johnson and Tauren Poole

i know there a debate over his position, but it seems like there's a big hole at ILB. Any chance he steps in and beats out Ellix Wilson?

I doubt he'll be the hands down starter at any position his first year here.

MLB or DE he'll get a lot of playing time, but it will be in a reserve role (Like Vlad at guard this past season).

He'll be on the field a lot regardless of it is DE or MLB. Just not as a starter.


And if I had to bet, he'll play at DE.

I figured that he'd likely be at DE, and even though it may not be a strength there are a lot of guys in the rotation at that position. MLB has been really thin the past couple years, I thought he'd get a shot to add depth and maybe even start there.
