'13 FL RB Derrick Henry (Bama commit)

Everyone needs to keep in mind that Henry won't make or brake, save or kill our recruiting class of Dooley's jobs security. There are still A LOT of good RBs out there EX: DERRICK GREEN, A.J. turman along with many others. Would it be amazing if we get Henry YES! But he doesn't make or break us.
 
Highly doubt it. We need some more weapons on defense.

In comes Johnson, Carr, Bradley, Crayton, Bell, JRM, Miles, Vereen, Campbell, Zanca, Lawson or Hatcher (hopeful), Sutton, and Barnes to go along with Johnson, Maggit, Couch, Sentimore, McCullers, Phillips, O'Brien, Bonner, Randolph, McNeil, Coleman, Brewer, Moore, Harris, Bynum, Lewis, Taylor,Walls, Hood, Miller, Gordon, Orta, Coleman, and Gray. Damn that felt good to type :)

Biggest problem there is that hardly any of those guys are upperclassmen. Wouldn't mind landing that list though......

"Aye #VolNation make sure y'all follow my brah @KingHenry_2 He got a big decision Friday #Vol4Life or #RoadTide. Show him the #TENNESSEE love"
 
Henry is going to be on the 10am radio show in Jacksonville, 1010XL. Not sure exactly what time he'll be on but apparently he's going to be on the show that starts at 10.

1010 XL

Either way he goes I think he has done a good job of not being a tool during his recruitment IMO. I think it's a decision that comes down to being a LB for a team like bama or a RB for a rebuilding team like UT. Tough decision for him I think he is seriously contemplating being a Vol and not just stringing us along. Of course it Sux that Bama gets this type of talent and not us. I wish him health and enough success to get to the league, but not wins at Bama if he chooses to go there.

The fact that he will have a beautiful UT hat on the table on national TV goes a long way for us. Also, though I want him in orange I wouldn't want him if it hurts our chances with landing the Green/Turman combo this yr. I think Bama is right on selling him at LB and wish we could do the same. But show him how we are open to using him in special RB packages like we have with Johnson. Can u imagine a DC trying to scrabble to figure out what to do if we had Green and Henry lined up side by side behind bray, and have CP, croom and pig wide out???? Now that can bring a big play to change momentum at the right time!! :) (one could dream)

Bama isnt selling him on playing LB. They wouldnt be an option if they tried to push that on him. Thats the reason UF is not an option.
