JJ Peterson ?

I think with the proper coaching he can be a good player for us. Time will tell. I mean, even guys like Leonard Little took some time. I’m optimistic he can develop into a sec LB.

I believe so to, if he sticks around. I mean, what's the latest? I have no clue what's up with him. Last I'd heard he didn't participate in spring practice and I haven't heard anything else.
 
JJ Peterson, may have been slightly overrated by recruiting services, or did he just arrive in such sloppy shape that he sudenly became another one of Tennessee's highly rated recruits to bite the dust?
The truth is probably somewhere in the middle of question, of what happened to JJ Peterson?

Honestly I don’t follow that close in the summer. I’m just of the opinion of he’s there and working his butt off until I hear otherwise from the school. So I’m just speculating basically and being optimistic he’s going to work out.

He could be, I know nothing, just thought if he was we would have heard something. I hope you're right!

It’s difficult to wrap your mind around football when your that age and caught in that ole poon-tane trap. I don’t know him but it seems he had some growing up to do.

Just out of curiosity, what’s your fav all time vol on defense...mine is probably dale carter
 
What are you even talking about? I think you’re confused. He got here weeks into the season and made it on kickoff team later in the year? Went awol and didn’t participate in the spring.. but yet I’m pulling stuff out my rectum Lmao
Freshman can play in 4 games without hurting their redshirt. He was given minimal playing time based on that rules. He was horribly out of shape and didn’t participate in spring.

You said huge contributions this year.
Yes, your rectum.

I’m confused why you’re telling me the redshirt rules, I’m very aware. Also, explain what being out of shape last year has to do with him this year? Yes I said huge contributor this year, why can’t he be?

Don't worry about it, no one really seems to know much but it kinda looks like he's got some issues, for lack of a better word. Some have already written him off.

What's stupid? That some have already written him off? I guess, but do you know what's going on with him? What's the last you've heard?

Yes that he’s been written off. I’m not even almost goin to pretend to be an insider. But obviously he is talented and He’s not even been here a full year yet. I just wish people would let the kids career play out

The simple absence from practices tells me there is more going on than just an injury. Either someone is telling him to get his head screwed on straight, or he is thinking about a transfer, or he is in a major doghouse and been told to stay away from practice. Or maybe grades???

No insider status here, just my view on the absence from practices.

Here’s the deal. First, JJ did participate in Spring practices. Second, He didn’t “go AWOL.” There were things that he needed to take care of and the coaches, advisors and other staff are helping to guide him. He’s learning and will be fine. Try not to judge people if you haven’t walked in their shoes..

Good info. Thanks for the clarification. I’m hoping I don’t see his name again until fall camp. This time of year always makes me nervous.

I'm looking at a Depth Chart for the 2019 season (Projected) and it lists JJ Peterson as Third Team at MLB behind Bituli and Toto. And we all thought he would be a starting LB at some point last year!

Try waiting until the season progresses, say around game3 or 4 and ask this question again.

See, it's sort of like the question of, "Where is astronaut Eric Boe?" The NASA, like Tennessee, we let our once-elite program become an FCB level team. The NASA (or rather the federal government) let our once elite space program become a Russian client (for gosh sakes!). So we won't be seeing Eric Boe in an American rocket, heading spaceward, from American soil until it happens. Hopefully, sometime this month when an All-American SpaceX Dragon thunders and roars into the sky. Same with JJ Peterson. We won't see him until the season is in progress. Patience, JWF, both the NASA and JJ Peterson are getting there. Patience.
