Left tackle is a disaster

[allvol123]

I know Butch is gone but just a note on this subject.

That spot on the line is dreadfully bad.

Whatever we did to get him away from Ole Mi$$, we overpaid.

Why isn't T. Smith at LT?

Because we have high school coaches.

Just ANOTHER 5* bust under Lyle

Kendrick is patheic too

 

[volsarelife1]

We would have been better off with the Dooley method and skip a recruiting class

TN Football is a disaster

 

[madbamahater]

Instead....Smith is stuck at right guard for some unknown reason....

 

[Orange Swagger]

Trey Smith should be starting left tackle. And what a joke Walt Wells is.

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

And people are upset that Cade Mays is visiting Clemson when we have 5* recruits become 5* turnstiles.....

Yes, that is true also.

Smith hasn’t had enough leadership reps to move out to left tackle

 

[Volfan76]

It's almost like somebody took the quality control coach of the worst oline coach in the country and promoted him to oline coach.

 

[Rockytopvol86]

As bad as our O-line is it isn’t completely the athletes fault it comes to coaching

There are approx. 60 something Power 5 schools and only 1 Power 5 coach, Butch Jones, thinks Wells is a Power 5 assistant.

Is Butch right or everyone else wrong?

Richmond looks like he is standing in cement the way those guys are running by him.

Why single just one of them. The entire line outside of a freshman is not SEC talent. We recruited MAC talent and gave them inferior coaching instruction.

By next year at this rate, Trey may look just as bad as he gets more coaching from this staff

Bad day for us when Richmond switched from Ol' Miss to Tennessee. I can't believe he was a 5 star recruit. He is one of the worst OL players I have seen in years.

Yes, both tackles are terrible. The sec is won in the trenches and we are bad on both sides of the ball. I don't care enough to look it up but I would be curious at how sought after our O-line was. I know Richmond was but if I'm not mistaken, he was a right tackle in high school and has never been able to make the adjustment to the left side. Of course, Smith was a great get but that's about it and it shows.
