LOL .... that's an oldie but a goody for sure.

Finally got a win to cleanse the palate following a rough week for VolNation.

This erased all the bad taste in my mouth.

Still have that album. Great music, & I've managed to keep fingerprints off the cover.

What a fun day it's been.

Anyone else a little concerned that a DL recruit is noticeably smaller than the head coach?

 

[CAVPUT]

That's 28 total for the day. It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas.

It says he is listed at 6’3” 260lbs. He will probably be 280-290lbs by the time the season rolls around.

 

[knoxvol52]

Nope. I don't like it...

When the talking heads on TV are licking the window for the Dallas Cowboys we fail miserable. I would rather these individuals say Cowboys have zero shot to win tonight..

That's still pretty slight for this league. Lots of SEC OL will push him around pretty good at that weight. Or is he headed for DE?

You beat both Super Bowl representatives from last year in back to back weeks. That’s something to get excited about. I think they lose tonight only because it is on the road. But the schedule sets up for you to win your last 4 games and finish 10-6-1 to make a wildcard spot.

Idk how you expect 17-18 year olds to look but it takes a couple of years for them to fill out their frame straight out of high school. There is a reason most SEC DL are upperclassmen with sophomores sprinkled in. It’s rare to have a freshman come in and get playing time on the line. If he is going to be an edge rusher then 280lbs is fine. If he is going to be on the interior then he probably will redshirt and start playing his sophomore year once he gets closer to that 300lb range. Anyone expecting any freshman to just come in and get impactful snaps on the line is fooling themselves. Only the elite of the elite pull that off.

I always thought this was a female singing Rocky Top.

This would be huge, but it’s most likely just a talking point. I was a little surprised that we did not sign a running back in yesterday’s haul.

Heupel is a pretty large human being himself, so no, not really.

If this staff has proven anything, it's that it can develop/produce really good defensive linemen, so I don't really worry about that position regardless.

I saw Herb a couple months ago here in Cincinnati. 90 yrs old and still sounds great

Don't you think Bey will be used as a RB?

 

[Sea Ray]

It says he is listed at 6’3” 260lbs. He will probably be 280-290lbs by the time the season rolls around.

One of our best pass rushing D linemen was Leonard Little and he was 6'3" 237 lbs as measured at the combine

 

[Sea Ray]

They need to update their website. It still shows us at #7 and only 2 five star recruits

 

[Sea Ray]

"Wide Receiver U"

What WR wouldn't want to play in our system? Heupel gets these guys wide F'ing open. Ditto for QBs. Who wouldn't want to run this O?

Yeah we all can use a Too Tall Jones playing the edge or DL.

Tony V is going to succeed.

Ron Washington is great. When he left the Braves things went downhill. Vitello & the SF G.M. hit a homerun.
