great job, after reading those comments, Im left wondering where the stars are? what I mean is that there was a time when Tennessee had some real superstars, Jamal Lewis, Peyton, Al Wilson, Donte Stallworth, Kelly Washington, you know name players, but now it's basically Ainge and no one else, esp on defense. I think this recent recruiting class with Berry, Donald, and some others will address that.

Good breakdown. Easy to read.

Rex - Think the names you are looking for will come out this season. Some names that have good seasons and will build on it again this season are Ainge, Coker, Foster, Mayo, and Hefney to name a few. Am hoping that some of the new receivers will breakout too and you'll remember their names too.

So Rogers and Taylor are our top 2 receivers coming out of spring? That worries me a bit. Taylor more than Rogers.

All the RB's need to step it up this year. We have 3 very capable backs and they all have different styles. With some good blocking and smart running, we could have something special back there.

Our LB corps is going to be nasty. Can't wait to see them on the field.

As for the DB's, didn't we get a couple of JUCO's for the position? Did they participate in the spring drills?

It's also nice to hear that our DE's, Mitchell and Reynolds both had big springs. Tennessee HAS to get back to putting pressure on the opposing team's QB. It's a must. Last year might have been the worst pass rush in recent Tennessee history.

UT 4 ME, i was wondering the same thing, L. Taylor our starting WR. OMG this can't be, L. Taylor has butter-fingers and if he is our starter i am very nervous. I mean our two starters have not proven themselves at all, and WRs this yr i believe is gonna be a major weakness.

The JUCOs have not enrolled yet. They'll come in with the freshmen this summer.

Cody Pope, Donald Langley, Art Evans, Todd Campbell and Sawtelle are the guys that enrolled early.

The 2 JUCO DBs we got were DeAngelo Willingham (CB) and Nevin McKenzie (S). Both looked incredible on film, and I would be surprised if 1 didn't start more than 8 games.

They were not on campus for spring, as far as i know.

LOL even in our football articles there is positive news of Pearl, he has made our ticket sales jump up like $700,000 and our concession products jumped up like $400,000. Man you gotta love Pearl. I admit it,i never watched UT basketball gm before Pearl took over. Pearl has brought so much to our school and basketball program and needs to be respected. GO VOLS

Who else on the roster right now deserves it? Hancock could be debatable, but who else does? I guarantee that one of those guys if not both will not be starters come fall.

If I had to lay money on it, I'd say we open the season with two WR and two TE on the field. Not saying it'll stay that way. But to start off...

"Fellows will also be in the mix."

Can anybody elaborate on what this means? I would have assumed Fellows would be a starter in our secondary, but I infer from this statement that 1) he didn't practice this spring, and 2) the coaches aren't sure he'll be a major contributor. Am I inferring too much?

He practiced. I guess he just didn't look that good

it seems as though we will count on this recruiting class to produce immediately more than any other in history
