Heh, yeah.My favorite of the quotes on Beckwith
"Tennessee fans over on Vol Nation are describing him as a bust, but they're pieces of sh!t so I'd take their words with a grain of salt. "
Lol. I see some of you guys are still here…Talk about someone who doesn’t know what he’s talking about… The irony. And for the record, Croom‘s production while at Tennessee was affected significantly due to injuries throughout his career. He played through a lot of them. Don’t throw shade unless you know the full details. It’s why he is in the NFL now making bank.
Beckwith will be playing for Kentucky. I hope this doesn't end up biting us in the mid-southern rear end as was the case with Randall Cobb.

It can work for him because UK has bigger holes to fill on offense. Wide open space in the roster for him to plug into. No one disputes his potential. Good move for him. I hope he can't hold onto the ball against us. I hope he is All-SEC against everyone else.Heh, yeah.
I do agree with the common consensus over there. His size and athleticism argue strongly for him to switch to defense: edge perhaps. But he is dead set on playing offense it seems, so...what do you do with him? Heup never pulled him up from way down the depth chart last season, which means he's missing the hands or the route discipline for WR or TE ... he's awfully tall for RB ... not a lot of choices left, except perhaps on special teams.
He may just be an oddly-shaped widget that doesn't fit into any of the available holes he's willing to jump into. For us or the Wildcats.
But wish the lad luck, any time he's not playing against orange and white.
Completely untrue. Fulmer knew he would be a WR and told him that. UK promised him a shot at QB and after one practice, moved him to WR. Fulmer was just a little too honest (is there such a thing) and lost him because of it. Not misevaluated at all.
As I understand it, Fulmer basically told Cobb he was too small, that he liked his player bigger.
