So many. But I'll limit myself to ...

Croom at TE
Richmond new
Williams breakout
McKenzie breakout
Kongbo freak
Gualden breakout

... Haven't been this excited for the Vols in a long time.

Haha, shat; classic. Really burned me there! I'll just hunker back down now that you put me in my place. All praise to you and your "non-shat" throwing comments.

Also, just to clarify, seeing as you're probably one the more classy individuals on here, how may I voice my opinion on players or coaches without it being misconstrued as "shat-throwing"?

Lastly, do you still think Coach Zach Azzanni is the the weakest link over Coach Don Mahoney in regards to our coaching staff? That's probably not "shat-throwing" right? I mean you did post it on August 11th and someone of you're prestigious caliber wouldn't voice a negative thought would you?!?

You did notice the title of this thread is "Player you're most excited to see this season" not "Player you don't want to see this season"? Maybe you should start the " Player you don't want to see this season" where the handful of player bashers can all congregate.

Its an open forum and you can voice your opinion however you choose. I can choose to read your opinions or put you on ignore like I have chosen to do with a couple of other posters who berate the players which IMHO is hitting below the belt. If that's your definition of "classy", then I'll wear it with pride although I view it as simply showing respect for the efforts the young men make toward the success of the UT football program.

And yes, IMO CZA is on the hot seat in 2016 as over the course of the past 3 seasons his group appears to be the most underperforming vs their talent level. As a state employee making $355,000 annually, I personally don't feel its out of bounds to question the results of his work.

:hi:

Richmond- In one of the Toughest spots to play in the SEC
Croom - Could be a matchup nightmare for Defenses
Byrd - Speed Speed Speed
Warrior - He sounds like the Real Deal from Practice Notes

Lastly - Dillion Bates - I really want him to stay healthy, would love for him to be successful at UT

Can be a vet or newcomer.

For me its Preston Williams. I sure he'll be a great player at Tennessee. I'm interested to see just how great can he be.

Is he the next Randy Moss?

Or is he the next AJ Green?

Or at worst is he the next Dwayne Jarrett?

I'm excited to see how he looks.

I've decided on Malone.... IF Dobbs can get him the ball.

Never said that.

I said he "looks like he COULD be a bust"
if he can't beat out a guy like Danny O'Brien.

I've conceded that this could be another boneheaded personnel decision by Butch Jones ala Jumper over Kirkland and Kahlil is still set for a monster season.

Let's hope this is Butch being dumb rather than Kahlil not being able to beat out O'Brien.

Seriously, dude?

I'll go ahead and say it... Medley.

Has he got his head screwed on straight this year and able to nail a few key, possibly game winning, FGs? I know most will say we're going to destroy everyone so we won't need any key FGs but he is certainly the weak link in an otherwise top ST unit in the country. Kicking game will be THE KEY in at least 2 games. Book it!

If he goes all mental, do we have a dependable backup or we going to frat row?

Thunder and Lightning, Hurd and Kamara.

Hopefully, we will see them in the backfield at the same time more often. Imagine the nightmares this could pose for DCs around the conference.

Josh Smith. I think he has a great year this year.

I am worried about Richmond at LT. I am very curious how that works out. I am hoping for the best.
I am curious about Kmac and Kongbo on the DL this year as well. Hoping for the best there but not as concerned due to our depth on the DL.

I agree. We will need him in a couple games. He may very well hold the key to a trip to Florida this January.

Well since I know what our returning stars can do, I am most interested into seeing what Byrd and Warrior looks like.
