What's going on with NUKE?

If Nuke wanted to play more, he should have been fielding those punts when he was in there and not playing high hurdles over the ball. He's not getting to play because he didn't do his job. I think he was recruited as much for making a statement to everyone about us being able to get players out of Florida that Meyer wanted. I may be wrong, but that's how I have always seen it.

Anyone know if Nuke is still in Knoxville because a friend just text me that he's in the Muck at Pahokee High.

CLK is working a trade. Just like at Oakland.:eek:lol:
That's why he's waiting until Tuesday. We can all start rumors.

I was thinking this too. If he's not happy with the Vols then he is best off to leave. If he's worrying more about himself than the team then - good riddance.

Exactly. I would love for him to stay, but this is a team sport and if he is crying over a lack of playing time in one game, then I guess we would be better off without him.

If he is homesick, I feel for him, but I think that he will regret the decision as I honestly believe that something very special will be going on in Knoxville over the next several years and he could have a front row seat to it.

Um, he's on campus. My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Nuke eating a pizza burger at Gus' last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

I don't think they complicate it this much. My sense is they just play whoever is doing the best in competing for the job. There's no upper class loyalty bias. If the upper classmen are better, they play. If the under classmen are better, they play. And, the competition is NEVER over.

It's a system that doesn't work for players who don't like to compete.

I agree with that... See J. Jackson.

I've heard that Nuke is actually DEAD, and they're doing a "Weekend at Bernies" thing with him until this kid Dunkley makes up his mind. That's why, if you see Nuke, he will always be near another player. Look for Kiffin to make a statement on Tuesday that the team is with Nuke 100%, despite his "declining hygiene." Once Dunkley commits, NUKE is going to be "doing laps" at the Body Farm for a few weeks just to let it all blow over. You heard it here first.

I was trying to start a rumor or fuel anything just asked if anyone knew if he had left campus besides that usually the first way to tell if a player is leaving the program.

Kiffin needs to show nuke some love and guarantee more playing time and bigger part of the offense. Stars like nuke want to shine.

I heard that Nuke talked to Tyler Smith, and he is debating on whether to transfer to Cincinnatti to be closer to home.

How ironic, I heard the exact same thing, but he actually passed out at 31 flavors last night. Maybe he had pizza earlier.

Apparently Kiffin will address the issue at his weekly press conference, Tuesday. Hopefully to say that they worked things out (fingers crossed)

if he is disappointed about the playing time, lets run some wild cat, we hardly ever do, and 75% of the time it works all the time

I would personally like to see him run the Wildcat more as well. Run that 3 times a game, then late line up in wildcat and let him PASS. No one would expect it.
