Can't remember as I was very young then, did Dale Jones play in the NFL?

Yes

I could be wrong about this but I believe he got cut by the cowboys in camp don't hold that against me though. He's from my hometown incredible athlete I have seen films on him from when he played in high school and he was very talented

But technically he did play; he played on those scab teams during the strike.

is not about playing in the NFL, its about being a stud at UT then being a bust in the NFL.

THIS. Maybe the best college QB to ever play for Vols. Too bad he loved nose candy better than the pigskin

Lee Otis Burton. No question.

In the summer of 1979, Lee Otis was in the adjoining suite of my dorm room in South Carrick...nice guy. I remember following him up the stairs one day. He could barely make it due to some rare blood disorder. He was a mountain of a man and had similar potential to Reggie White.

I don't think Chip Kell or Tim Priest played in the NFL.

 

[Big Ugly Vol]

Munoz, Maybe Johnny Majors off the top of my head. Some people look at Munoz as a bust, he was hurt a lot here. Funny thing is his dad was looked at as maybe lacking some toughness due to a similar rash of injuries in college.
