Football StePhaun Raines

Any thoughts on this kid. Rivals video looked good but we beat MTSU, Arkansas and others-in other words not too highly recruited. Will he play WR or DB? 4 years of eligibility because he has not played for 2 years.

I imagine there were similar thoughts about Inky Johnson.

Tennessee had already offered Raines before he went to a JUCO

He was redshirted, so I would imagine an injury

I wouldn't count out a 6'0" CB who runs a 4.4. Sure, he was 2 stars, but who cares. People were getting their jollies off about Art Evans, but Raines has essentially the same measurables.

I thought it was to concentrate on his grades.

That's because Sykes is apart of the '07 class.

Sykes was in the 07 class and will be a juco for 09. If we get them all back, we will have a good group coming in from juco next year.
