This young man has some talent and I'm definitely not questioning any coaches in their recruitment. However what I am saying is he will be a long term project for any program. UT has had many if those over the years but most of the players that have had a big impact on the program have been early contributors.

I have seen this young man play in 10 football games from the time he was a sophomore unt this his senior year. His foot speed and agility are lacking, he has poor hands and lacks explosiveness. The only time he lined up at any position on the offensive line in the last couple of years was due to an injury to other players. He is a large young man and is very slow at the line of scrimmage.

I may be wrong here (I have been wrong many times in the past) but I would not pursue this young man unless I had depth in front if him that would allow him the time to develop. If all you are looking at are his measurables and his offer list, without actually seeing his play, then you're missing a big part of the picture. There are much better options available to UT.

He's right. Word is Bama (among other programs) has backed off recruitment. I wondered why until now.

There never has been a relationship here for UT. I understand your point as it relates to Tennessee high schools I general but this. School is less than 20 years old and this is the first true D1 talent to ever take the field here. That's not a knock on the other players from this school.
Excuse me....I meant repairing relationships across the state that Dooley ruined....didn't fully clarify and didn't mean this school in particular....texting on my phone in my car as my wife drove when posting that.

I have seen Mosley play since his sophomore year. He has impressive size but that is about it. He has terrible feet, bad hands and was blocked consistantly by linemen that he should have donminated. His first movement at the snap is up. His success at the next level will be limited unless he developes a serious mean streak. He will be a project for any program and there are definitely better players available out there. He will not be an impact player for any program for several years.

Mosley or McCullers?

I said somewhat the same thing earlier, not quite as harsh but to the same tune. I think he finished this year with 14 tackles in 11 games check me if I'm wrong but those are not d 1 numbers I've seen several games
And never been impressed with anything other than his size. he could be great but he's going to have to be pushed hard and needs some time to get there.

Personally not looking for another announcement for '14 this weekend. Just not feeling it yet, but that could mean there will be. These kids seem to enjoy surprising me.

Maybe, just maybe, an early commit or 2 for '15.

If Butch has a big fish up his sleeve he was saving for signing day or something, he needs to be giving that kid a call to commit on Monday because this is rough.

And I think we can all do better than using this word as a whole. People with disabilities can't help the way they are, so let's try using ignorant or stupid when bashing someones post we feel is dumb. Sorry, I'll get off my soapbox, I just find that word offensive since I worked with kids with disabilities.

This country has become WAY too sensitive!!
