Anyone have a guess as to the odds that Marlon Brown will get to play this week. I think CMR puts him into the game just to rub it in our noses! Not to fret though......we can always parade EB back at him! Hope he's parading all over their receivers this week......Go Vols

I don't think he gets in, and if so, he doesn't do much. Maybe 2 catches for 32 yards. I'm sure Coach Richt will have his hands full already with our D without trying to rub any noses.

I really think they should have a special defense just for him. Called the, "Eric Berry is going to knock the ____ out of Marlon Brown" defense.

Seriously, it's a win win.... If it's a play to MB, EB's there to lay him out, or to atleast, "give him the business..." Or if it doesn't go to MB, EB lays the wood on a "block."

Orson Charles is a much bigger worry than MB as far as freshman go. If he's in, the D should look for the run, at this point MB is a much better blocker than receiver.

Marlon Brown will continue to help pass out gatorade on the sidelines while Teague and Richardson continue to see the field in orange.

I heard the AJC writer that covers the bulldogs say that Brown is not as advertised. He's apparently not near the player to live up to the hype that he was given. He'll play but they still have a lot of more talented receivers ahead of him.

If Marlon Brown plays this weekend it means we are winning by 21 in the 4th quarter. I'll be surprised if he plays.

"Learn the playbook, kid. In two or three years we'll see". OOPS, a flashback.

My son went to school and played ball with Marlon. He was telling me this weekend that Marlon is really unhappy with his playing time. I think he may be wishing he had not listened to Granny.

I'm pretty sure I read that Tavarres King has a concussion and may not even travel to the game. Marlon will probably see some playing time.

LMAO... really you think the coaches or EB are concerned about getting back at MB. You apparently haven't had much experiernce with college football.

Orson is a freak and should be much more of a concern to the UT D than Marlon.

I highly doubt Richt cares one bit about Marlon Brown sticking it to Tennessee.

or we are up by 21 in the fourth :)

Some of you guys are crazy. Just because a kid is not starting by the 6th game of his freshman season he is now unhappy. Come on.

You will see him some this week because we just had another wide receiver (T.King) that will be out with a concussion.

According to Chris Low on his SEC blog at ESPN, he will get a chance this week. I would post the blog, but I can't get to it from my work computer.

Reeeeeeeeeeeeally, is this the same coach that sent his whole team out onto the field after scoring a td(in the first friggin quarter). The same coach that allowed his teams to stomp on his opponents midfield insignia, that coach. He finally put a stop to that after comeback win against powerhouse Vandy, after they won all the Georgia players ran out and started stomping on the Vandy insignia, Georgia fans must have been proud.

I may be wrong, but I think you're referring to Caleb King, apparently he broke his jaw and got a concussion in the LSU game and will not travel.

Georgia's Brown may see role grow against Vols
October 8, 2009 11:16 AM

Posted by ESPN.com's Chris Low

Georgia’s thinning receiver corps may mean that true freshman Marlon Brown will see his most extensive action yet in his home state.

Tavarres King, who had a key 46-yard catch last week against LSU, suffered a concussion in that game and isn’t expected to make the trip to Tennessee. He was the Bulldogs’ third leading receiver.

Georgia now has just five healthy scholarship receivers, including Brown, who has played in just one game and has yet to catch a pass this season. He was highly recruited coming out of Memphis and ended up choosing Georgia over Tennessee in a fierce recruiting battle.

The day he was introduced as Tennessee’s coach, Lane Kiffin said during his press conference that he was heading out later to visit the top player in the state (although he never mentioned Brown by name) and was in Brown’s house several hours later.

After Brown wound up signing with the Bulldogs, Kiffin suggested that it was Brown’s grandmother that wouldn’t let him come to Tennessee.

“We wish Marlon the best of luck, but he called last night and said he loved it here, but that his grandmother wouldn’t let him come,” Kiffin said back in February on national signing day. “I don’t know what you do about that.”

Brown later confirmed that there was a disagreement with Tennessee recruiting coordinator Ed Orgeron and that his grandmother was turned off by it.

“Coach O came at me the wrong way. He had said a couple things to me and my family, and it wasn’t happening,” Brown told KQPN-AM 730 in Memphis.

For those that know the football in Memphis this is not a shocker at all. The league Marlon played in comes close to the equivalent of TN playing 12 Western Kentucky's. He never played anyone that could come close to matching his athletic ability.

Yea same coach. he said it was to motivate his team. That is why he suspended the lineman that was dancing and taunting the florida player.
