Montori Hughes

[bburger991]

Just wondering, but what do you guys know about him? I remember hearing Jamie Newberg saying he was the best player in Tennessee the year of Donta Hightower, Aaron Douglas, ..etc, but I really don't remember hearing much about him. I'm guessing he just redshirted or something?

he went to prep school and his enrolled right now.

i never saw him on rivals or anything. Does anyone have any videos/stats on this guy? Height and weight would be a start.

nevermind, I found his stats on rivals. 6'5" 255lbs. No picture or anything else.

6'4" and weighed in at 312 when he got to Knoxville. They will get some of that off...

 

[bburger991]

Ok, that makes more sense. Thanks. I'm hoping he comes in and contributes right away though, we need him.

Whoa!!! I knew he had gained some wait but geeez. I thought he was around 275 now. At 312, I hope they get some of that weight off.

 

[TEX_VOLFAN]

what position?

what position?

Def. Tackle

 

[TEX_VOLFAN]

Nice we need some big guys up there. Coach O said in the PC this morning we are a little thin in the middle.

 

[BeecherVol]

I think 290- 295, is his fighting weight.

I hear he is doing well.

 

[Sabanocchio]

I hear that he still has aways to go. The coaches are pushing him extra hard though. We will need him come fall.

 

[mrgqsmooth3000]

why no one talks about james green or eric gordan

 

[bburger991]

Because Gordon probably won't qualify and will have to go to prep or JuCo, and Green isn't as flashy as NuKeese and he's not a homegrown guy like Teague.

Did we sign Eric Gordan?

I hope so. Whats our DT rotation even looking like?

Williams
Walls
Langley
Thomas
Hughes

Maybe? I'm not too sure on that.

thanks for the update

Looks about right, a lot of potential. But unproven as of now.

Add Nelson

 

[Sabanocchio]

Wes Brown will shift over to help some too, seems to be the prevailing thought.

 

[armchairvol]

After Williams, it's clear that we are thin on talent and experience at DT. QB, DT and WR are our three biggest areas of concern--and it's not good when qb and dt are your weak spots.

 

[Sabanocchio]

Hubbs said that Montori gave a lot of effort out there in practice today.

 

[StarRaider]

Montori played with my kid in hs in Murfreesboro, he was a beast on the d-line and played hard every down and made plays all over the field. He was a bit of a hot head but I think he has matured enough so it won't get him in trouble.

I'm from Nashville/Murfreesboro and saw him play a few times in H.S. Hughes was projected as a project when he signed. He has all the potential in the world. He just has to work at it and keep his mind on football. If he does, he'll be a very good player.
