i haven't seen this. Thanks.

We could use him, although competition will be tough with the studs CLK is brining in. I am sure he wants to play with his little bro.

I don't see what it would hurt. Austin's got almost 1,000 career receiving yards, and the roster is so thin that I doubt even the max number of scholarships would put next year's number at 85.

Doubtful the NC-Double-Aholes will help, anyway.

Before people complain about him taking up a scholarship, it would most likely go to a walk on anyways. Even with a full class this year, we won't be at a full 85 man roster.

I've heard the reason for the initial redshirt really helps players chances in these cases. If they were redshirted due to injury and then lose another year to injury then they have a good shot at a 6th year. If they are redshirted to save eligibility when they're freshman then they don't have as good a shot. I think Rogers was the former but I'm not sure.

I hope he gets it. I always dreamed of playing for UT with my brother. The problem is we aren't good.

Yeah, Rogers tore his ACL early in his career.

Interesting. That actually makes sense. Logic from the NCAA.

Long shot, but who knows.

I just don't think Kiffen would use him. I felt the same way with Josh McNeil. Kiffin doesn't want to spend time coaching up average players when he could work on incoming freshman that may be difference makers. Just saying

If he plays well he will get time.

At the least, he could be a help on STs.

Ten games in and we're still struggling with the spelling of our coach's name.

No wonder Vol Calls is such a humorous show.
