John Kelly Declares for NFL Draft

[aRmo]

Just confirmed through Austin Price, Good Luck!

 

[CountVolcula]

Don't blame him
Go earn that money young man

 

[NashVol11]

Agreed, wish him the best. But get ready for a lot of “he’s not ready”

 

[amillz]

I'll always wish we could have seen him run behind a good line. Good luck JK!! VFL

 

[k-town_king]

Good luck to him. Chandler is going to have a monster year.

 

[Volunteer_Kirby]

Would've loved to see him back but can't blame him for declaring. Good luck J.K., get that money!

 

[BloomuVol]

Go make that money and represent the University well. Good luck

 

[FearTheVols]

Don't blame him one bit, but would have loved to see what he could do with the new coaches.

 

[butchna]

Good luck! Prolly a middle round pick that’ll get a chance to shine.

 

[hndog609]

Well nuts. As a Vols fan I hate to see him go but he's shown himself to be pretty good and will have a lot of tread left on the tires. Hoping he does well and looking forward to seeing what Chandler will do for us.

 

[CountVolcula]

Agreed, wish him the best. But get ready for a lot of “he’s not ready”

Just hope he didn't get bad advice and goes unsigned

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Hate to see him go. His presence will be missed, both on game days and as a mentor to the young guys.

Hope he shows out like Kamara.

 

[GetEmVols]

Sucks he is leaving. I’m going to be optimistic and hope this helps Pruitt recruit another RB for next year.

Good luck J. Kelly!

I don't understand why we just think its fine that our Juniors seem to go pro, but Kirby keeping Michele and Chubb and getting them to stay for their senior year, when they were projected much higher than JK, shows what it takes to win. UGA wouldn't be in the CFP if those two declared last year.

 

[DaddyChad]

Huge mistake IMO. Phenomenal talent that would've been taken early if he had a year running behind be a decent line.

I think he will be good in the league but he likely won't get drafted early.

 

[RDU VOL#14]

Good luck to John Kelly. Really have enjoyed watching him play with such effort, talent and joy. Seems like a real genuinely great kid.

 

[1TallVolFan]

Is Banks going to be quick enough to be Chandlers backup? This could be a nice one/two like Hurd/Kamara was supposed to be. Banks 6'2" bruiser with Chandlers speed...

Georgia has been a lot more stable than Tennessee. We've just had a cluster and I'm sure some kids are tired of it.

 

[coffeevol]

Well piss, dang man...go make that Chedda young man

 

[dtnvol]

Good luck Mr Kelly...a lot of heart & talent...one of our few bright spots this past season...hope the TITANS pick him up 😃

 

[CladInOrange]

One thing I will never blame anyone doing is leaving early, especially in a sport like football when you never know if that snap is gonna be your last.

Yeah why should we be happy with a UT player wanting to earn millions./blue font

 

[UCVOL]

He'll shine in the NFL.

 

[dtnvol]

Good luck to him. Chandler is going to have a monster year.

I sure hope...with the coaching staff CJP has put together, our offense & DEFENSE should be well coached and hopefully prepared...:rock:

 

[PrattvilleVol]

Another solid year would have meant millions more in earnings potential. If college players can catch him, 5th round at best. Good luck though, solid kid that plays with heart.
