Who is your most UNDER appreciated Vol

[illvol]

Just thinking back to teams from the past I always wonder how one player may have contributed in today's scheme or other environment. I also think back about guys I didn't pay much attention to when they played but now see where they may have fit in and would love to have them on today's team.
Who is one player that didn't get the accolades or appreciation while playing but you would love to have on this team? Name and position.

I would love a Will Overstreet, defensive end. Someone who put his head down and worked quietly but would come up big in big situations.

Charlie Garner and Casey Clausen. Both accomplished a lot, but probably would not be on many Vol fan favorites list

Casey Clausen is one of my all time favorite Vols.

Interesting factoid, he's been busy coaching and turning around a former miserable high school program at Calabassas High in SoCal.

Isn't this supposed to be the offensive line, anytime they are good?

Mark Jones. Played WR and DB. Don't know if it still stands, but he caught the longest TD reception in UT history vs UGA. HE also caused a huge interception when we upset Miami.

Leonard Scott, dude could fly! Would love to see what he could do in butches hurry up offense, or out of a wildcat formation!

I'm with you illvol always thought Casey Clausen was fun to watch! Tough reliable and played with a must win attitude. One of my favorites also!

I would say any number of linemen who played 4 years, but weren't necessarily household names.

But the truth is most good players who contribute are not under-appreciated in their time. They just get talked about less and less as time goes by.

He's the 1st player to pop in my mind.

After reading another post today I think we might have a chance at another Overstreet in Vickers. If he can come up with the big plays you reference it will be a big boost to the entire defense.

Party Hardy!
But seriously, I'd go with Jimmy Noonan.
