Barnett BABY

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Congratulations #9!!!

 

[Biopsyman]

he will be a great pro.. Long career and very productive.. Future Pro Bowler.. book it

 

[DaddyChad]

It'll be a crying shame if he doesent go Top 3

We'll see after the draft order is announced. He'll be top 5 most likely. Prototypical pass rushing end that has three years of great tape.

Congrats Barnett! I was holding my breath on every play he was on the field hoping he would get it. So very deserved, well done young man!

 

[Volatility]

Honest question(s): Does DB deserve to have his name put up in the stadium with White and Atkins? Does he need to succeed in the pros to do that too? If so, shouldn't Eric Berry be in line for that honor as well?

I think so. I never understood why you have to play 4 years to get your name up there. If he played next year and got seriously hurt, he would have his name up there. But having your name up for there won't pay the bills.

 

[UTK]

Congrats. Absolute beast.

 

[MyBloodRunnethOrange]

Will have many great memories of watching 9 play. I'd love to see him wear a star on his helmet for the next 15 years but it won't happen.

 

[voldawgforever]

Very proud. Great accomplishment. Great game.

 

[Tidal Surge]

Congrats to DB!! Great player!!

 

[kiddiedoc]

All time great!

 

[DaddyChad]

I'm really interested in seeing where Allen, Barnett, and Garrett go in the draft.

 

[JustFunnN'Orange]

Great DB!!!

Did anyone notice the TN ink on his arm? Circle w/ three stars...what a VFL

 

[SNAFU]

I'm really interested in seeing where Allen, Barnett, and Garrett go in the draft.

I cannot stand the Patriots and know that there's no way in hell Barnett falls to them, but he would be a beast with that team given his versatility and desire. So many tools....

 

[wuwh_08]

Not afraid to admit I had a tear in my watching the team celebrate DB9s record breaking sack!

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

I think so. I never understood why you have to play 4 years to get your name up there. If he played next year and got seriously hurt, he would have his name up there. But having your name up for there won't pay the bills.

I'm not sure that there's a 4 year rule. Weren't Adkins and Majors ineligible as freshmen?

 

[SobeVol]

Congratulations Barnett! Thank you for all you have done for UT and best of luck for you in the pros!

I don't see him falling that far. Jacksonville likely grabs him if he makes it that far.

 

[TNnative]

When I realized they had him lined up off the RT instead of LT, I hoped Fyfe didn't realize it. He didn't. Had the refs enforced holding at all, DB would have had 5 sacks.

 

[tn4elvis]

Yep

He red shirted his fresh year

 

[TNnative]

Will have many great memories of watching 9 play. I'd love to see him wear a star on his helmet for the next 15 years but it won't happen.

Somebody will use a 1st round pick on him. Top ten. Just can't imagine him going any later.

 

[Voldrum]

I think DB proves that dad bods are a way of the future.
Congrats to him and screw all the haters!

Yeah I mean you awards guy.

 

[amillz]

Couldn't have went to a better player. DB worked so hard for us and is a true VFL. He should get a plaque in Neyland stadium!! I was so happy to hear the crowd chant his name.

 

[ddubb76]

At his current yearly sack rate, he could break the fbs career sack record if he did stay. The current record is 44. Not saying he will, just that he easily could.

 

[joevol33]

Now has the career sack record. I never thought I'd live to see Reggie's record broken. Derek has earned his place among the all time Vol greats.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO:dance2::loco::rock:epper:

Love it!
