Got to consider who their coach was the first 2 years.Too bad these guys only “flashed” and peaked late in their time here. Meanwhile, here’s to hoping some of the many Freshman getting a LOT of playing time this year, will “flash” earlier and longer.
And yes CA Vol...DLs are MUCH needed!
You lose players every year.Bituli
Taylor
Warrior
Jennings
Callaway
Trey
All these guys playing very well right now and a big reason for recent success. But...I’m not overly concerned and think we’ll take a big step next year especially on D.
Is Billy right or wrong...
I hope Billy is right. And i think he is.
Smith is a junior. Is it a given that he doesn't come back?
Uh, no. If you think an NFL team is going to draft someone in the first round who doesn’t practice because he’s on blood thinners half the week, you’re crazy.If he plays this whole season without problems he will be a first round pick easily.
Trey has not completed a whole season without missing a game in college. Some NFL team would take a chance on him in lower rounds but think if he proves this year and next he would be a round 1 guy. He's not even a full time practice guy yet not sure that would translate to the more rugged NFL. He will be facing the best every week.
I think he comes back and keeps a close eye medically on everything and family will make decision, he may not even play NFL.

As for Jennings...HE WILL leave a large hole behind, in heart and leadership.
