Tennessee junior DI Kahlil McKenzie suffered a season-ending injury (torn pectoral muscle) just six games into the 2016 season, limiting him to just 152 defensive snaps. In that span, he earned the No. 2 ranked overall grade (78.6) among returning Power 5 interior defenders with less than 200 defensive snaps.

McKenzie also ranked No. 2 against the run among that same group of interior defenders, posting an 80. 4 run defense grade.
Though his pass-rush repertoire is limited, McKenzie picked up a bull rush pressure once every 18.7 rushes, which ranked No. 1 in the draft class.

He also ranked No. 1 in pass-rush productivity from a two-point stance at 26.8

Geez, a female ESPN reporter (maybe from SECN) was interviewing McElwain, and she asked about his 3 "dynamic" QB's.

When McElwain was talking about Franks, he said he has a strong arm but doesn't always know where it's going.

Somebody most likely said that about Peyton once upon a time...he was following Jerry Colquitt AND Todd Helton. Maybe give up on that 98 championship when Jamal Lewis's knee went kaput...what the hell is that scrub Travis Henry going to be able to do? :dunno:

Are you seriously comparing Jumper being next man in to Peyton Manning and Cheese Henry? Everybody knew those guys were going to be good even though they were inexperienced. You got a talent of that magnitude waiting in the wings at LB? Come on man..

I'd say he is probably referring to the underclassmen that nobody much expects to do anything. Jumper is known.

So I took my son today to the Appalachian Fair here in East Tennessee. While waiting in line for a ride, I noticed a family in front of me and the dad looked familiar. The mom was wearing a black football jersey with the name "Patrick" on the back.

An older man in front of them asked her about her jersey, and she said it was a college jersey for a community college in Mississippi. I instantly knew then how I recognized the dad. It was Camion Patrick and Isaiah Wright's father. If you've watched Last Chance U, you remember that they interviewed him in the second season and they went inside their home in Knoxville.

Anyway, he told me that Isaiah had left West Georgia and was visiting ETSU, hoping to be able to enroll. Would be awesome to see him dominating the Southern Conference!

If you don't know, we are opening our new on-campus, outdoor stadium next Saturday. I was the first person, according to my buddy who is the new AD, to contribute to the capital fund to build the stadium over 3 years ago, so I'm pretty excited. If you're ever in JC, come out and support the Bucs. We play in Neyland next year!

That's a Cool story 'bro! My sister graduated from ETSU many years ago - more years ago than when I graduated from UT! 😄 Always had a soft in my heart for the Bucs!

Is everyone low on Jumper disregarding any benefits another offseason would have given him athletically or knowledge wise? I think he will have improved, especially since the staff knew he would be relied upon this year. I think he'll be just fine. Maybe not the best option, but certainly not the worst.
