I see Thorton as a guy who comes in and gives us 700+ yards and 7-8 TD's next year then blows up in 2024 and is an all sec type WR. He has good speed at 6'5, Huepel will find a way to maximize his raw potential by the time he leaves here. He has a HIGH ceiling.

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

Good pickup! Boom! GBO

 

[Vol524]

BIG BOOM!

 

[VFL92]

BIG. Time. Get.

Kid's combination of size and strength are off the chart. Having a 4th WR with D1 experience is huge. I trust the WRs behind Keyton, McCoy and Squirrel, but this is a huge pickup for depth and a kid who could absolutely explode in this system.

So is it Keyton/Thornton at one WR, Bru at the other, and squirrel in the slot?

“I felt like it was the best fit for me overall,” Thornton told GoVols247 about his decision. “Just the fact that they’re a heavy pass offense and they have a great quarterback with a strong arm. I know that as long as I go out there and play football within the scheme and offense that they have, I’m going to be good.”

Shhhh. Don't tell him we run the ball more than we throw it.

Dude is 6'5!! Our WR corp next year are big boys! Milton just has to throw it up and let them do all the work!

AP said he can play all the positions, inside and outside

Makes up for not snagging Ra Ra

 

[cwbytruckers]

At 6'5 he could be a nightmare match up in the slot playing sort of a TE role.

Ra-Ra and Lovett can enjoy catching the 11 TDS between them next year. They can rock/paper/scissors for who gets 6 and who gets 5.

😂Thought that, too.

I fully expect to see a 4 wide more often with these weapons. Put Cam at RB and wheel route here we come.

 

[LA vol7]

of course he did, where else did anyone think he was going?!

 

[INDEFENSE]

There's a pay article on ON3 regarding what a Oregon insider said about Thornton's future as he sees it.Anyone have access to it?

 

[HighRockvol]

Boom!!!

Nico Suave to Dont'e T - Give Him 6 !!!
