I thought this was discussed a week ago. For some reason I remember being told we would sign 25 because of graduation, draft, transfers and Dooley dismissals.

Not sure when it was discussed but I would make large bet our staff is planning on signing 25. One thing to remember is we just have to be at 85 by next fall. After spring practice numbers will work themselves out IMO

Has he mentioned actually transfering back home??

No, from all indications Obrien loves it in Knoxville and was really pushing for playing time later in the season. It is incredibly uninformed for that psoter to say that he thinks Obrien will transfer because he is from the midwest.

I really hope we have something big planed as we are losing recruits fast.

We here on VN complain because we don't like the quality of recruits that Dooley was bringing in.

But, we here on VN complain because those same recruits aren't encouraged by the new staff and they decommit.

Matt Milton receiver from Illinois left last season during Christmas break. Arnett receiver from Michigan left last season during Christmas break.

I have a feeling that O Brien will leave. He did not play this season and most of the players from the north never work out. Arnett, Milton, Henderson, lineman from Wisconsin, Sattelle lineman from Illinois, etc. etc.

O'Brien loves UT, I do not see him leaving.

There was a smallish defensive tackle from Alabama who departed...Carson maybe? Was that last christmas?

Have we counted out Phillips and Bourque?

Matt Darr...wonder if he will hang around?

I realize this, was referring to the guy who said we can sign 27. We would need 11 players to leave in order for that to happen. No chance. We will sign 22 max.

I think this is the rule. 25 plus the 3 we were under last year. 28 is possible

So...
13 Graduates
3 Possible Draftees
5 Transfers
2 Dismissals

Does that put us at 23?

Guess we are having two different discussions. Yes its possible, it just won't happen.

It may not be the most pleasant situation but with the new staff I am sure they will make room for their guys. It's very possible
