With everything negative we're hearing around here... who would have thought that the guy with "attitude problems" out of high school would be the opitome of a Vol.. freakin Derek Barnett- VFL. Lifeblood of our team- sick of hearing about Hurd. Let's show appreciation for our boys who want to be remembered.

At times he has been unstoppable. On the comparison to Garrett, no doubt Myles has tremendous upside with his mobility at his size, and who knows, maybe he turns it up a notch when he gets to the league, but for now you cannot begin to argue the he's been more impressive than Barnett as an NFL prospect. And it's really not even close. I believe that right now, Barnett would outplay Garrett 100% of the time. Really Barnett has totally dominated Garrett in stat comparisons for his entire career.

Btw, I say the above in reference to a few comments I have seen on Volnation and elsewhere that Garrett is a better prospect at the next level.

Barnett had a forced fumble, interception and 2 sacks while working against fellow future 1st rounder Cam Robinson. He completely took over a game in the 2nd half against a now #11 ranked team. Any NFL team that picks Garrett over Barnett is really going to regret it.

Really pulling for him to break the sack record. I think Reggie White would be honored.

He probably won't even be All SEC.
Those teams are a joke
It's ALL about hype. What you actually DO is irrelevant

I'd go into battle with Barnett and Jennings right now. Behind them, of course.

These two warriors are the heart and soul of this team. They are two of the best to ever wear the beloved Orange. Having said that, let's finish what we need to do and win out...

It was a worry yeah- got kicked out of a couple of games- there was some video back then of a personal foul he got that was just out of control -

So people on here would talk about his attitude and heart before he committed to us
