STILL STARTING: Freshman Marcus Jackson will make his third consecutive start at left guard over sophomore James Stone, Dooley said, although Stone rotated with Jackson throughout Saturdays game.
But well still play James some, Dooley said. Waiting for whoevers going to take it.
Dooley said the Vols are going to probably keep repping James at guard rather than dividing his practice time between guard and center, where he started UTs first six games.
Bullard didnt have his best game Saturday against Middle Tennessee, Dooley said. But Dooley indicated that Bullard isnt in danger of losing his starting job because the snapping part of playing center is so important, and Stones problems at center mostly came from snapping.
Still, Dooley said Stone remains the Vols backup center.
How is it that we are "settling" in a center because he snap the ball correctly? Isnt that center 101? Our team goes through and entire offseason, spring, and fall practice and now we are starting a guys based only on his ability to snap the ball? We need a new O-Line coach.
