I like Oku as much as anyone.... But, it's time to let performance speak for itself, he hasn't done anything on returns. At least he hasn't fumbled, but will we ever start a series past the 20? Let someone else have a shot please, this is getting old.

Oku cannot break one...does not have the speed. So it would be nice to see someone else back there on KO's.

I don't think Oku is the problem, the coverage is the problem.

There might be some truth to this, but I just see every return Oku is kinda jogging when he gets the ball. It's as if he's trying to be patient. It would be fresh to get someone that just turns the burners on as soon as he got it..... And yes, I know about patience and field vision looking for a hole, but Oku has had his fair chance, and his method isn't working.

I'll take any bet you want. You take Oku and I'll take Rogers(Z or D), Hunter, R Neal, J Jackson, Gordon or D Moore.

For what? A foot race? How could we possibly bet? They will never be racing eachother when either of us are around. Stupid post.

He hasn't broke a long return yet. My opinion is too tentative finding the seam. Let D. Rodgers or R. Neal get a shot returning kicks. If you notice they almost always kick to Oku that should be a statement in itself.

You said he was one of the fastest on the team. If you go 10 or 12 deep maybe he is. He's faster than James Stone, I'll give you that. And if you think my post are stupid, I feel I'm posting common sense things.

No. The blocking's been nothing special. He's done about as well as could be expected of him with the blocking imo.

How can every single team we face have better kick returners than us? It isn't all the blockers' fault.

If you're looking for a Demps on UT's roster.....good luck. We ain't got nothing close.

I like everyone else is tired of not having gamebreakers back returning kicks. Solid guys are for the birds. I want to see someone back there that can outrun some angles. Everyone else has them where are ours? When I see guys like Rodgers for Oregon St. and the RBs Oregon has I wonder why we don't have any speed on this team. Look at the Boise St. skill players and the speed they have. The only speed guy we really have is D.Moore. That's a shame for a program like Tennessee. Where BJ Coleman, Tyler Maples, Todd Campbell, and some of the others were brought in could be a few impact players.
