D. Bates

What's been the story with him? I had high hopes, but he can't seem to get on the field. I'll hang up and listen.

Based on this board, he probably should be ahead of Jumper....

Special teams. He just doesn't seem to have it yet and from what I have read, does not seem to want it.

He needs to improve his skills and acquire the title Master.

 

[BigOrangeD]

Had a few injuries and not a quick study. Both together are a recipe for little playing time.

Still better than Jumper even if he had two torn ACL's and a broken foot out there with a walking boot on...

Take a left and go 5 miles. You'll find the village that has been looking for you.

I think we should make a sticky thread because this is literally asked every week.

I don't buy that crap for a minute. That's internet rhetoric.

That really sucks. Was that in a thread on vn? Could be that he's lost the fire it takes to compete at this level. I'm sure he had a lot of pressure on him coming to Tennessee as a legacy. I really hope that's not the case.

 

[bnhunt]

He needs to watch some videos of his dad and maybe that will get him fired up (except for the one where Walker trucks him).

So you tell us where you read he didn't want it. We're waiting.:ermm:

 

[nash101]

Maybe he needs Nick Reviz to take him to the mountaintop and stare at water. Then he will want it and be ready to play

Between injuries and just generally not good enough to play, he hasn't played. Special teams only.
