'15 TN DE Kyle Phillips (UT commit 1/3/15)

[SCowlsVOL]

Can't wait till he's on campus. We will have a talented group next yr on def.

 

[eazyTD]

Soon...

 

[SCowlsVOL]

Soon...

Any idea how soon it will be till he gets on campus?

 

[thomaseusin]

That's real slick having single digit Dline numbers

Latroy #4
Barnett #9
Phillips#5
Butcher wants #8 if Hendrix is for sure gone
Tuttle #2
I wonder what KMAC will be

KMac should have an asterisk because OL will only be seeing stars after the snap

 

[Vol Revolver]

Boom! There is no way this won't be a top 5 class now! 3 for sure 5 stars and about 20 4 stars ha ha! I didn't think butch could out due last years class but I believe this years class is better top to bottom. Wow!

2016 has the potential to be better than both..

 

[Ned Ray McWorkher]

Butch Stones.

2016 has the potential to be better than both..

If we can get anything close to the last few years our depth and talent will be SEC championship calibre. If 2016 turns out to be better than the last 2 years than Butch will have to be considered right there with Saban and Meyer as far as recruiting goes. Butch is certainly proving to be elite on the recruiting trail.

 

[3rdDown4What?]

I think he is there now

 

[engineerVOL]

So 2, 4, 5, 8, 9.

KM and Picou only have 1 and 3 to choose from.

 

[Vols4us]

With the size and physicality these guys have, they can wear whatever number they want. Just make sure it is a orange UT jersey.

 

[RockVol]

KMac should wear #1.
The highest rated player from 2014 and 2015 wearing the same number.

 

[JohnMcA60]

So 2, 4, 5, 8, 9.

KM and Picou only have 1 and 3 to choose from.

KMac said he wants to wear number 1

 

[Maxwell]

KMac should wear 0 for how many yards the offense is going to get running up the middle.

Kmac hinting he will be wearing #1 at UT

 

[JL 103]

Kmac hinting he will be wearing #1 at UT

I think Swain will approve

 

[JohnMcA60]

At Vandy vs Lady Vols game.

 

[Nashvegas31]

Kmac hinting he will be wearing #1 at UT

If true, highest selling jersey since Peyton with Hurd and McKenzie wearing it plus the Nike switch

 

[SobeVol]

I am freaking stoked we got this guy.
Phillips is a baller!!!!

 

[CroKev]

KMac should wear 0 for how many yards the offense is going to get running up the middle.

Can we assign negative numbers then?

I understand Hurd and McKenzie will never be on the field at the same time so there is nothing wrong with it but wouldn't you want a number that is all your own? If I was a DT I wouldn't want to share a number with a starting RB.

 

[B-sideVol18]

If he wears number 1 then everyone's dream of giving him the ball dies.

 

[Nashvegas31]

We will have too may playmakers anyway to be trying a gimmick play with a 330lb DT

 

[Jpcisco]

I agree, I really hope he decides to wear something other than 1. I really liked the idea of him lining up in the backfield after watching the US Army all American game. He would be a hell of a lead blocker for Hurd. Even give him the ball occasionally. I really hope UT coaches incorporate that next year with him. Never seen a man as big as him move that well. Would love to see him line up as a fullback in short yard situations.

Agreed. I'm not one of those people who wants to see K Mac get the ball. I hated that beast thing with AJ Johnson getting the ball, although we really didn't have better options at the time.
