'13 OH OL Dylan Wiesman (UT signee)

You make it sound as if he's taking on a huge project. I mean our offensive line is only one of the best in the country... I mean I'm with ya brother and hope he can coach these 2nd string players up, but the seniors and Tiny are ready to go. We will see what Mahoney is made of when everyone is gone after this year. I mean look at what he has of now and this is all based on 247:

Starters:

James 5 star
Fulton 3 star
Stone 4 star
Tiny 4 star
Jackson 4 star

Back ups:
Crowder 3 star
Kerbyson 3 star
Posey 3 star
Bullard (Starter?) 3-4 star not sure since he walked on
Sanders 3 star
Skipper 3 star
Kendrick 3 star
Wiesman 2 star

Now I'm no star gasser but there's a drop off of talent here. I don't care what people say, but for the most part you can judge talent by the offers the player receives. You take on a guy who's best offer is Southern Alabama then I hope as a coach you truly know what you are doing.

Crowded, Posey, Kerbyson, and Sanders are all very good players. Players like James as Tiny don't come along often.

Well not that it matters but Sanders is a 4* and Weisman is a 3*
 
Nah give me a Conrad Dobler in his heyday.....

Met Bob Young once at a powerlifting meet in Memphis. Watching him getting out of a Triumph was a hoot.
Terry Todd the strenght coach at Auburn was with him they made a pair.

Whatever site rates the kid the highest is the best one at that particular moment. If 247 says he's a 4*, go with that. If ESPN says he is a 3*, screw em. They hate us anyways. If the 4 sites say a given player is a 3*, 3*, 4*, 4*?? 2 4's= 4.5* in the fans minds.

Lmao!
 
Is the site the only one that has so many star gazing idiots on it? I do not look at many other sites. I do not care if they work at Starbucks if they get the job done. Clowns!!!

No way, NASA has alot of star gazing idiots. I would also guess they drink alot of Starbucks.

I couldn't tell what you were saying as your grammar was poor. I'm guessing you think I care about stars, or for that matter any of us. Most of us don't. If the guys produce we will all be happy in the end, but obviously we want 5* guys like Bell and Lawson more than 3* guys. That's not star gazing as much as it is watching film and knowing these guys are ballers IMO.
 
No what I am is who gives a sheet on how dam+ stars these so called recruiting experts put on a player. Like I have stated before college football is won by more 2 and 3 STARS than a team full of 5 stars. If a kid can play and the team gets back to 8 or 9 wins the star crap and recruiting ranks means squat.

Sorry but 4+4=8 stars or 4x4=16 stars.
 
I really think this will be a good pickup for us, glad we got his commitment.

@D_Wiesman71: Thanks for all the love and warm welcomes everyone! Pumped to be part of this family! #BestFansEver

Heard this a.m. That Coach Urbie (OSU) and Coach Brady (MEECHIGAN U) were zeroing in on this kid and calling daily. So I believe Coach Butch got a good one. The kid has great footwork and solid frame to put on needed weight.

Colerain has been a big time public school program in the Cincy area. Consider it a very good get to land one of their top OL. Look forward to watching this youngster develop as a Vol.
