First Black Stripe off of 2016 (Baylen Buchanan)

[LargeOrange1]

He's the son of former ProBowl CB Ray Buchanan.

You mean "Big Play Ray" don't you? Or that is how Buchanan referred to himself when with the Falcons. He had his moments for sure. Glad Baylen is a VFL.

Absolutely, his stripe was removed because of his phenomenal attitude. Genuinely a team first kid who wants to do whatever he can to help the team. Very impressive he went first.

No offense. How do you know this information to make such a definitive statement?

I think it was E Moseley. It was a corner that looked really good at first but hasn't been able to do it on the field

Congratulations Baylen, but, I'm beginning to get real worried about this generation. Have to take a picture to remember who you are is very concerning to me...:loco:...

GO VOLS!

Yea, take a selfie of me holding my helmet with the strip removed to send to my folks in Atlanta to update them on how I'm doing away at school. Your right - completely crazy.

Hyams said people on the staff compared Buchanan to Cam Sutton when he was a true freshman.

“The guy who’s come in and really earned the respect of his teammates and coaches is Baylen Buchanan,” Shoop said during a half-hour press conference inside the Ray and Lucy Hand Digital Studio. “He’s a guy that we think can contribute now. I’ve heard people on the staff compare him to Cam Sutton when he was a freshman. He’s long, he’s athletic, he’s got good ball skills, he’s very composed.

“You watch the freshmen when they get in, their heads are spinning, they’re going 100 mph, and then you look at him, and the game’s sort of slowed down to him, and it’s very, very impressive to watch.”

Huh?
A 3 star kicking @ss in his first camp at UT?

How can this be? Maybe our coaches KNOW talent.
And yet another likely success story and recruiting tool to land
more talent from the State of Georgia.
