The Replacements

[mitzustu]

Ryan Karl and now Jerod Mayo are making their exit from the linebacking core. What does this unit look like next year.... Which of these start we look pretty deep

1. Rico McCoy
2.Chris Donald
3. Dorian Davis
4. Gerald Williams JUCO Transfer
5. Nevin Mckenzie
6. Adam-Myers White
7. Elix Wilson
8. Jerrell Harris (Possible Commit not yet committed)
:salute:

Harris to ASU and Williams will play End from what I've read

 

[k-sny-vol]

I say Ellix in the middle.. McCoy and McKenzie on the outside.. with Meyers White and Davis the backups for OLB.. and Donald the backup MLB..
Gerald Williams will be a DE..

we have plenty of depth..

 

[rockyg79]

we always reload at LB. That is why a co-DC would be huge. It will allow Chavis more time to focus on the young LB corps

What?

 

[govols182]

Don't forget Savion Frazier. He will play MLB too and he won't redshirt. He played a little bit this year. As everyone has said, Williams will be DE and I would think that the starters will be McCoy, Wilson, and McKenzie. Davis and Myers-White will be back ups and if Donald gets his head straight should be second string in the middle. We will see.

Who was the Freshman this year that was highly recruited as a LB and moved to DE due to depth issues? Was/Is that a permament move? I thought it was Donald but could be mistaken.

 

[DC Vol]

I think Chris Donald will see some time at MLB as well. With Ellix Wilson as a Senior, they'll probably want to start getting Donald some time in live games.

Ya Wat!!!! all i''ve read says he's been eagerly waitin to come back to tennessee.... and rivals has him a solid commit:salute:

You're right, and I doubt he's projected to stay there. He R/S'd this year I'm pretty sure, but they listed him at DE in case of dire emergency.

o o sorry i was thinkin Williams sorry

 

[DC Vol]

Ya Wat!!!! all i''ve read says he's been eagerly waitin to come back to tennessee.... and rivals has him a solid commit:salute:

He was saying this guy committed to ASU:
Jerrell Harris - Football Recruiting

He was also saying Williams was going to play DE, which he very well might.

 

[mitzustu]

Where are you getting that info on Jerrell Harris... ASU isn't even on his list on rivals:salute:

 

[kkep48]

Chris Walker was a LB but he'll be moved to DE

 

[OrangeEmpire]

Ben Martin = Freak OLB

 

[Abeachvol]

Ben Martin = Freak OLB

only if we were a 3-4 squad imo

 

[VolColts03]

my bad guys.... lack of sleep catching up to me... Jerrell Harris isn't ASU commit, Gerell Robinson is.... my bad

That's what I thought you were talking about... as there was loose talk about Gerell Robinson coming here, but I didn't want to jump the gun.

 

[OrangeEmpire]

Brown, Williams and Ayers.

 

[VolColts03]

sorry about all the angst this might have caused... back to subject... I'd like to see Nevin take one of the OLB spots with some great play

I think Chavis' idea is to bulk him up a bit and keep him there.

 

[kidroot]

is LaMarcus Thompson still around for 2008? Does anyone know the status of Chris Donald? Walker for that matter as well?
