Every year.... I've been here a long time and someone like you does this every year. It is almost always followed by disappointment and declarations of various players being busts because they didn't produce right away.D Johnson and K Bennett combined....for 4.5 sacks. That's not going to cut it.
I think Joseph can easily surpass that by himself.
Wanya Morris and Darnell came right in and took spots from Marcus Tatum and Jamir Johnson. Henry T came in and took Ignot spot...
Morven Joseph has already been playing the position of OLB in the 3-4 unlike Crouch and Harrison who had to try and learn on the fly. Luckily Crouch had that spring to help get up to speed faster.
FSU and UF both wanted this kid terribly. He is the next in line to earn a spot as true freshman.

Of course you know you're being a little loose with those stats also. D Johnson playing behind Taylor was 3rd on the team with 2.5 sacks. Bituli had 3. Taylor had 7. Bennett playing as a back up for most of the year tied with six other players with 2 sacks each. UT did it by committee and that probably won't change until the Vols have a Barnett caliber pass rusher.
I personally am not sure Johnson will ever be very good for the Vols. He's a Jr and didn't seem to have the trust of the coaches even when Taylor needed a break. Bennett is a Soph who came a long way.
