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

[engineerVOL]

Says hes already lost 7lbs since being on campus.

Either hes missing mommas cooking or the training staff is doing work!

Kahlil needs to get him some of that asap.

Walking those hills will do the trick. I had the lower body of a Centaur by the time I was a senior.

Are they doing team workouts or is that later on? I don't know the rules on all that.

It's prob not having moms home cooking and walking campus.

I'm sure Barnett has taken him under wing as well so he may be doing a ton of running like Barnett did last year before enrolling

I heard an interview with Butch on the radio a few days ago. If I understood him correctly, they are officially starting the S&C program this week, but he was bragging on the players for being in there working on their own last week even though they weren't "required."

 

[Deputy Fife]

Future All-American.

He's already every bit as good as Chris Doleman ever was.

That's great to hear! I think we all know there is no such thing as "optional" workouts :wink2:

Kinda like when your boss tells you - I know the "corporate policy" dictates that we fly Business Class, but I'm booking Coach, you decide what you want to do...

Don't think I've ever worked for a boss that would have chosen coach for himself. More than likely, it would have been the opposite. "Corporate policy dictates we fly coach, so I've booked you for that. However, I'm flying business. I'll see you there."

Such a humble-sounding, genuine young man. All-American smile to go along with All-American talents. He's gonna be one of the best Vols to ever don the orange I believe.

Thanks to Dejuan Conley for steering him away from basketball!! haha.

Wait.... What?! Steering Kyle from basketball?!--huh? Did I miss something here?

 

[Roustabout]

Wait.... What?! Steering Kyle from basketball?!--huh? Did I miss something here?

Maybe he was referring to the fact that he won't be playing b ball this spring with his high school.
Enrolling early requires kids to give up a bit.

 

[WhatInVolnation]

Wait.... What?! Steering Kyle from basketball?!--huh? Did I miss something here?

Apparently, Kyle fancied himself a basketball player until one of his coaches or trainers--I believe it is the poster that goes by de1conley--redirected him to football because he recognized how much potential Kyle had in football.

 

[roosterjbh]

Dejuan Conley is De1conley?....I don't see it.

I am pretty sure d1 was being half serious.

Yeah, there definitely aren't 69 recruits who are better than that monster that showed up at the All-American camp. He was a problem with no solution for some of the premier talent in the nation.

 

[BigThunder]

Does anyone know when rivals will update their rankings??

 

[StanfordVol]

Does anyone know when rivals will update their rankings??

I believe they have been updating them throughout the week. Position rankings today, I heard.

 

[OldVol49vfl]

Are you sure it's not next week? The rankings posted now date back to December 12th.

Saw on twitter that Rivals is releasing their updates (5 stars/top100) starting Monday 1/19 then the rest of the rankings throughout the week.

If it had been the UA game, he would definitely be a five star.

Yall have given way too much credit to this Conley guy in regards to what he knows about Kyle. KP deserves all the credit for becoming the player he is, no one else. Bottom line. No 1 person steered Kyle anywhere but himself and his family. Kid battled back from a season ending injury his junior year and played with 1 arm his senior year and dominated everyone he played.
