The forecast for 75% certainty is about 25% to 50% probability for 100% accuracy to be about 37%*off, plus or minus 15%. But that could change between now and September.
His size limits him. I like him more as a FS or WR. However, I have no problem with the UT staff making the most of the scholarship dollars being spent on him

Making opponents start on the 20 yard line would be huge. Better field position from kick offs and punting will help us win games that would otherwise be lost. This is especially true in close games where you can kick it deep and make it difficult to get in FG range.
I would think he is a lock to handle Kickoff duties from day 1.
He will be the favorite to take over punting duties as well.
FG's may be the position in question. I am sure that the staff will have at least a minor concern that using him in all 3 phases would over work him, especially as a freshman. Does a healthy Lincoln take extra points and short FG's? Does Mathis stay with the team as a walk-on and challenge Lincoln for that duty? The coaches have been looking at 2-3 in-state guys (good year in TN for kickers) that they are hoping they could get to walk-on.
