Da'Rick Rogers

Should be returning kicks for UT. Oku has been terrible this year, and I sware he just runs into the swarm everytime.

Give Da Freak a shot, coach?

 

[gwgvol]

Sounds like a pretty good idea. Did he do it in high school?

How about Neal? He looks really shifty and is always looking for holes>

 

[amershamvol]

why not oku just dances around he needs to pick a seem and hit it full speed.

 

[Hayezb]

He can't do any worse than Oku. Like you said, he runs straight at them every time. At least Da'Rick is bigger, he should get a few yards after contact.

 

[VOLtownUSA]

Maybe he should grow a set first - MHF

:question: Should I or shouldn't I? Nah too easy

Serious question, fellow Vol fans. When you watch our kick off returns compared to others, do ours look just God awful? I see Demps of Florida run outside, I see Oku/whoever has been back there since '01, run straight into the freakin swarm.

While we always allow the opponent to start on the 35-40, we always are stuck on the 22.

Our special teams suck, but I don't believe Oku is the one to blame. Our blockers are getting beat down the field. By the time the ball gets to Oku, he doesn't have any time to do anything with the ball.

There aren't many people in the country that can take the path Demps can.

Demps has the speed to get outside. Oku doesn't.

I'm talking about punts.

I agree with your assesment on KR

 

[Outdors21]

Hunter and Neal would be my choices - just based on athleticism. But two true freshmen returning kicks on the road in the SEC would certainly be scary.

 

[UTfanatic98]

I don't just mean Demps, there are plenty of other kick returners who do the exact opposite of Oku.

 

[UTfanatic98]

IMO, Hunter is too thin to send out there and get popped on a kick return. I like the idea of Da'Rick or maybe Raijon back there.

Long day.

Uh, remember DeSean Jackson

 

[solo_hensley]

Put Z. Rodgers back there.

 

[crusse10]

It's no different than what seems like the last 10 years.

 

[VOLtownUSA]

Put Z. Rodgers back there.

This, nobody ever mentions him.











Racists :whistling:

 

[UTfanatic98]

Yes, I remember Desean Jackson. We never touched him on the kickoff/punt.

 

[UTfanatic98]

I just don't like the idea of Hunter back there, but then again it's JMO.

That's because your smart. Hunter is a wide-out pure and simple.
We either need blazing north-south speed runner(we don't have) or speedy-shifty tuff guy which we do have.:hi: Block better and don't get beat to the spot would be better advice, than changing returner.

 

[bornbleedinorange]

cmon rajion and da'freak. they returned in high school. we are starting so many freshman why not them
