2022 Fall Practice #1

[sjt18]

I can’t recall a LB growing into a DT then, please remind us. I remember guys like Henderson and Haynesworth who were top 5 rated DT’s out of hs

I remember more being DE's growing into DT's, LB's growing into DE's, Safeties growing into LB's.

Jeff Coleman and Shazzon Bradley are the only ones off the top of my head.

I recall Bradley starting off as a nose guard - don’t recall him ever being a LB at UT? Don’t remember the specifics on Coleman

Bradley started at both DT and MLB at UT at different points. Coleman was a LB recruit out of Gaffney, SC who ended up starting at DT and was an important piece of that 1998 Dline.

Recruited at and started off as an ILB. That lasted until Majors did the big switch in 88 midseason.
