Been a fan since the late 60s. I have seen the Vols when they are good. This aint' good.
OL is serviceable but inexperienced and there really isn't a left tackle. No All Conference players here.
QB: If you have 3 still in the running, you don't have one. All of them have something different but none of them have greatness
RB: No real homerun threat. Against the defense they played against on Sat, some back should have broken at least one long TD. Nothing explosive
WR: No proven WRs. No SEC defense will have to double team any of these guys. That will also hamstring the running game.
For this type of offense to work, an offense needs an above average OL, an elite athlete at QB who is a threat running and throwing the ball, and a homerun RB. This offense has to have big play capability and I haven't seen the guy who can do that at any position.
Not sure there is one player on that offense who will make All Conference. Not even sure there is one player on that offense that would start for any team in the top half of the SEC. Sure, some will make a case for Cade Mays (didn't see it last year), Hyatt (WR) hasn't proven he can sustain success, VJones (did OK as the 3rd receiver last year)........
I hope I'm wrong and I will be at the home games but, every UT fan will have to be patient.........again.
