Eli Wolf

[ZippyMorocco]

In 2 games, he has caught passes for 84 yards. In 3 years at UT, he caught passes for 86 yards. He looks really good. Why wasn't he a bigger part of the offense?

 

[butchna]

He was never the best TE on the roster with us.

It really helps when you have a QB that can read the whole field

 

[GoVols64]

Sad part is Chaney would have used him.

Better catch all he can he’ll be recruited over this year.

 

[unfrozencvmanvol]

We needed our TE's for blocking last year, you may recall our OL was less than stellar.

 

[mpfvol]

Because UT Coaches always put the best players on the field . And UT QBs can only do 1 read a play .

He is a grad transfer. There is no next year.

 

[Dudleys87]

He is a grad transfer. There is no next year.

So he’ll still be recruited over

 

[Peyton_ManThing]

Just curious.. are any of his catches in actual competitive game time?? I'm thinking this is probably garbage time catches

 

[RDU VOL#14]

Pass block or don’t see the field right away. A time honored tradition on The Hill.

Grad transfer but hey facts.

None were garbage time. UGA usually plays 12 personnel, and Wolf is in the game from the beginning. Garbage time has two different TEs than Woerner and Wolf.

The tight ends including him missed a ton of run blocks as well.

1 catch for 11 yds vs Vandy and 4 for 75 vs mighty Murray State, after one of which he lost a fumble. He chose to leave Tennessee and transfer to a rival because of his earned place on our TE depth chart. He didn’t do anything here, can’t worry about what little he’s doing at UGA imo.

 

[BlinghamptonVol]

In the midst of ‘all our players suck, especially the older ones’, it seems foolish to dismiss that a grad transfer went to a school we can’t compete with recruiting wise and has matched his career stats in two games. Something is wrong with our coaching in a major way.

He blocks like a turnstile!

He does have good speed and hands for a TE but there wouldn't be many opportunities for Wolf and DWA to be on the field at the same time as they are both primarily pass catching TEs.

Probably wasn't in coaches offensive scheme

yp. I doubt he will be drafted. However #4 TE for Tennessee will likely be drafted.

He didn't user UGAs TE s all that much so not sure about that

He's a Sr now with 4 years of practice, study, and film under his belt. Srs outperform underclassmen everywhere, same team, different team.

If you made the interplanetary leap to say our staff can't develop players ... from Wolf's two game stats on an offensive juggarnaut team, as a senior instead of a walkon underclassmen or 1st year scholly player, on a team with maybe the best OL in the nation vs a sun belt level OL, catching from an elite QB instead of an unsteady one ... then you may need a reboot. Dang.

 

[beachmaster]

Didn't want anyway.

Some players do better in different systems. Look at Fields right now.

 

[BowlBrother85]

Sad part is Chaney would have used him.

Chaney doesn't use the TE's much. Isaac Nauta only caught 30 passes in 14 games last season and he is definitely an NFL talent. Eli Wolf is not even as talented as his brother. He has caught a few passes for less than a 100 yards in two of Georgia's easiest games on their schedule. Big s***. Why we didn't utilize Alvin Kamara more in 2016 is a serious question... this is just a Georgia fan wanting to gloat over the perceived success of a scrub on their team vs ours.
