'15 TN DE Kyle Phillips (UT commit 1/3/15)

[nashvol1]

Moving Maggitt to LB and breaking up the best pass rushing duo in the country is the craziest thing I've read on here in a while.

Exactly.

Maggitt isn,t going back to linebacker WOULD BE NICE IF pHILLIPS WAS AS GOOD AS bARNETT

Dline starters on gameday are Barnett, Mckenzie, Danny O'Brien, and Phillips.

I think Maggit goes to linebacker

 

[OrangeHammer]

I have a feeling that Amadi, Jackson, Martin, and Phillips all take their talents to Corndog U. Can't have all the instate guys every year. Bummer considering we need Phillips something aweful.

Once you have Leonard Little at DE, you don't move him back to LB.

Cheif did?

Not saying I disagree, but what leads you to believe this? I'm curious...

Indigestion..

Biggest mistake he ever made IMO.

Gut feeling? LSU leads for Phillips and Martin, and Ugo is said to go w Phillips. LSU has been the team to beat this cycle and I thought that we lead for Martin, especially the way he tweets about Tennessee, but again LSU has assumed the lead here too.

Those guys (-Jackson) should contribute early and often (esp Ugo in return game) and LSU is just in a better spot and is known for their defense. Just seems as if it's an uphill battle at this point? Could things change? Always, but if NSD were today they'd all be Tigers IMO.

Also, not sure if he was using his poker face or not but Ugo looked less than impressed to be taking pics with our head man. Usually those guys look pretty stoked. Ugo, well not so much.

 

[bignewt]

yeah unless I see something different I think they are LSU bound. Would love to get Walker to ease the pain.

 

[Dust10]

I'm not ready to throw in the towel on Phillips. Luckily we don't have to wait long to find out.

 

[mgnelson88]

I still think we pull Martin and Phillips....gut

TROOF! You go in there and you think it'll be all like:

But it's really more like this:

And people see themselves like this:

But in reality, they are really like this:

Awesome... Should be required reading/viewing..

 

[bignewt]

thinking Chavis would come back here when he has it so good at LSU is what makes it delete-able.

Where is de1 to give us some inside scoop? Merry Christmas fellow vols!!

His silence might be speaking volumes.

never know. I have seen people make worse decisions.

 

[vol lady]

Do you guys think if we miss on Phillips and Amadi we could still land Martin? Why do all these guys like LS freaking U so much? Seems like Martin would have a better chance of starting here...

I think they are making a very hard sell about the number of defensive prospects they are putting into the league right now.

We will be able to make that claim very soon

 

[bornbleddinorange]

LSU is a great school..
They have been solid every year for the last 10.
Great stadium, great tradition.

They aren't committing to vandy

 

[unioncityvol]

Yea we should just ignore all the CBs to Vols for Phillips, Ugo, and Martin and the fact that Butch is a recruiting machine and assume LSU wins this. Not me. Vols, all three.

 

[bornbleddinorange]

^ Agreed we still have a great shot here.
