[Heath Shuler]

I was all about bringing Bryce back 3 weeks ago. And now i think even i dont care now. It shouldnt take this long for any person to make a dicision one way or another. :blink:

Talent alone. Poole is a practice field legend, but has ended up buried on the depth chart under both staffs. He tried to quit in the middle of a game last year, doesn’t exactly scream winner to me.

In other words...based on hype

whatever man

Okay, I agree with you. Brown is easily the best back on our team. However, Poole has only been here two years. He was "buried" as a true frosh behind Foster, Mo-Hard, and Creer. Since then, he jumped Creer on the depth chart and sat behind Hard and Brown.

Did Poole not Redshirt?

ETA: Just checked, you’re right, he didn’t.

When in doubt, agree with chavis. It will all work out for you.

Barring an injury to Poole, you're going to be eating crow.

We’ll see at the end of the season.

What exactly have you seen out of Poole to make you think he’ll be so great?

LOL, I tried to agree with you on the Guinness but that didn't work out to well for me. I couldn't finish drinking it and ordered another beer. I like dark, amber, honwy browns, and wheat beer but Guinness = nasty beer!!!

Son....I am disappoint.

I've been high on Poole since he signed. I'm sure JG has seen him live quite a few times.

I’m beginning to realize this...

Don’t get me wrong, Tauren’s always been a guy I’ve rooted for, I actually spent some time with him during his unofficial visit for the LSU game in ’06. I just think Bryce is the better RB.

A year and a half of him out playing 2 NFL TBs in practice.

Jimmy Hyams says Bryce Brown is expected to choose Kansas St. and he may be able to officially report it tomorrow.

If true...at this point...I'm just happy with an answer...

I'm truly sick of this thread and this player to be honest

 

[jspvol76]

Good luck Bryce....

 

[VolsRule]

he may be able to officially report it tomorrow.

How will the "official" announcement come down? Press release or radio spot? Will the PR people at UT make the news available right away after transmitted by Bryce's camp?

Poole is going to end up being our best player this year and is going to carry the team. And when he does carry the team into a bowl game I'm going to be in the stands clapping for him the whole time because the guy got screwed last year.

+1 :good!:

 

[Z06VolinWV]

So, nothing new??

 

[VolsRule]

If he outplayed nfl TBs in practice, why didn't he play much in the games?

 

[Volinnooga]

How do you guys have time to go to practice to evaluate who is outplaying whom? Gosh I wish my job gave me more free time.

You have a job?? Well, there is your problem!

Got PT on ST's as a true Fr, right? He then got "buried" by CLK but said he confronted CLK about his outperforming BB in practice and didn't get straight answers. IOW's, CLK was working an agenda with BB... and rightly so considering what he was trying to do recruiting wise. He had to play BB and make him look credible so that his promises to the next sure fire Freshman starter would sound legit. But you can't exactly judge Poole a "practice field legend" when the coach refused to give him the PT he'd earned.

He tried to quit in the middle of a game last year, doesn’t exactly scream winner to me.

You have no earthly idea what you are talking about on this... that was NOT what occurred.
