Harris' senior film, was too me, one of the best highlight film's of the '11 class, and by far and away the greatest improvement from junior to senior year. I've said on numerous occasions, that when it's all said and done, he will an all-time fan favorite on the hill.

Another year in S&C will be impressive, for all these kids, really. Also, can't teach smart (no racist, especially comparing him to Santos). :)

Compare these two LBs guys. I like Harris a little more. Glad we got both though.

1. You're comparing Harris as a SR to Santos as JR. Santos SR film will be ridiculous.

2. Santos plays a little bit better competition.

3. Harris is doing those things at 230 lbs. Santos is doing them at 250 - and with a little bit more of a mean streak.

4. Harris goes backward on a few of his solo tackles :)35, 1:10 until he got help). I haven't seen Santos go backward on a single highlight tape I've seen and we've yet to see much if any SR film ATP.


I think both have alot of potential, but Santos will start before Harris does assuming no injuries. Mark it down.

Re-watch his highlight tape. Particularly at 1:05.

Are you kidding me? The kid is 250lbs.

No I was agreeing that I was glad we got both of them. With Harris's speed he could play on passing downs and we would still have a great tackling MLB.

Great to have both of these boys, but in my opinion they are two different positions, Dalton is a true MLB, and I see Christian as a OLB. Its gonna be great to see both on the field at the same time

Santos IMO has one of the quickest bursts ive ever seen once he gets within 5 yards of the ball carrier for a cat his size. Straight explosion homey. Almost Ray Lewisesque. Not comparing the 2, but that how I see him attack the ball carrier. Dude is fast for his size. Harris I think will start for us, but it will be extremely hard to keep Dalton off the field. Great. Closing. Speed.

Same here. Santos has dynamite in his heels and sets it off at will. His downhill is ferocious and his short lat will stop any ball carrier -- backwards. By the time he is a junior at UT - nobody will run at him. Or by him. Just me 2 farthings worth.

Santos looks like Brian Urlacher to me. Or at least what i think Urlacher would've looked like in High School. lol BEAST. Same with Harris though, especially when he puts on more size. BEAST! Tennessee's linebacking core is gonna be STACKED in the coming years. :loco:

If I remember correctly Urlacher was a safety in college and moved to LB in the NFL. I could be mixing him up with somebody else.

These two are going to make Volnation very proud

I noticed Santos seems to have a mean streak that I like, when he would hit a running back he wanted to body slam them to the ground..he he he

and how could anyone not like the speed of Harris... with our present LB's..... we are going to have "D" to be reconded with in the near future, especially if we land the Big uglies on D-line we are expecting

Lol never knew that, but the comparison still works for me, he looks like a young Urlacher. If young Urlacher played MLB lol

Hmmmm........Urlacher was on a whole other level as an athlete. Especially when he was young. He lined up at TE too. Santos is a good prospect but he's not the athlete the young Urlacher was. And I don't think he closes to the ball like some of you guys think. He does close with bad intentions though. Hope to see his senior film soon.

MLB all the way Love his attitude about football. Every great team has had that kind of leader on it's defense. Not trying to put alot of pressure on the kid, but his attitude reminds me of Big Bad Al still my alltime favorite VOL. If you didn't do your job he would beat the **** out of you and everyone knew it. I truly believe when he is done here we will be talking of him the same way, sure hope so anyways!!

Do you think A&M to the SEC flips Santos?
