So, here is something I don't get, Bru McCoy is waiting on the ok from the NCAA and his eligibility is in question because he transferred from USC to Texas for spring practice, back to USC, and then to UT, right? I think the question lies in the rule that a player can enter the portal once without sitting, but then has to sit a year on subsequent transfers. So Dixon transferred from Clemson to WVa for spring practice, then is transferring here. Why is his eligibility not in question? Is it because he never actually played after his first transfer? It's a little confusing, since I don't know if McCoy played for USC after transferring back.
Dear Haters, read this slowly so you comprehend this simple concept...here goes...ready?
The more weapons we have, the better the chance of winning. Coach Hype knows what do with talent, just ask the Hooker!

One of his transfers might have been as a grad.So, here is something I don't get, Bru McCoy is waiting on the ok from the NCAA and his eligibility is in question because he transferred from USC to Texas for spring practice, back to USC, and then to UT, right?

You aren’t wrong there… but still **** em lololConsidering the mess UT has been for a while, and especially during Dixon's recruitment cycle, I wouldn't have come here either. The choice he made at the time was common sense, and I'm a diehard Vols fan. Yet smart enough to understand you make the best possible choice for your future, not the worst or less viable choice.
Most people thinking this is the first time his names popped up. He chose WV over us last year too.. college football is ruinedIf I’m trying to look for the positives here…
Maybe he didn’t come because he didn’t like Gump?
Not too many players would have gone to Knoxville over Clemson at the time of his recruitment.

Sounds like Darrel Middleton lolHeup was an unknown in terms of being a F5 head coach. And coming as we had players deserting the sinking ship in droves. Which seemed to suggest the UT would continue to wallow and bathtub of dumpster fire. Common sense ruled again, he went where his chances were not in severe jeopardy as they seemed at the UT. Thankfully, Heup seems to be the right hire to fast track us out of better than a decade of attempted football program suicide.
A big back is not necessary for this offense.
Speed>Bulk in this offense. I’m not stating a big back with speed would not be better but you take the best you can get. Remember the 4 star RB committed a couple of years ago but from accounts on VN, Heupel told him he was not a good fit. I can’t remember the name at the moment.Disagree. This is the SEC, backs with heft on them live longer. Plus, the Purdue game did show we need a real bull to punch it in from 5 or fewer yards out. Scat backs are nice until they get drilled by an SEC LB or even a safety, as we saw with Small and Evans last season.
Quite amusing that you said snaps instead of carries. You do realize he only ran the ball 32 times for 207 yds and an average of 6.5 YPC don't you?Quite amusing seeing people that consider losing Whitehead for the year a big blow after playing 63 total snaps and gaining 207 yards last year now questioning bringing in Dixon.
Honestly, some of you folks don’t know where you pooped last.
