Worst Recruit Pass in UT History? (Hindsight)

[ScreaminVolHawkins]

Different question to ponder. Would Willis have gone on to become as great of a player as he did if he didn't feel slighted by us? If he would have, he wins it hands down. Best LB in the NFL right now.

i dunno but i think along the same lines terrell owens might not ended up such an *******

Davis Tull. Because he is from Knoxville and all we had to do is let him walkon. He is a beast and will play in the NFL.

No. 1 defensive end and No. 6 overall player in the nation according to Phil Steele’s FCS Preview

Sims over Newton to this day just makes me crazy.
Bryce brown over T.Richardson is pretty dumb also.

All Kiffin to blame for those mistakes.

We had a shot at getting Richardson? Thanks a lot Lame Kiffin!

Speaking of Ogden, Lemming said that Orlando Brown is similar to Ogden. He said a lot of the scouts said Ogden was too slow and too heavy in HS to be a big time player. He said if you compare their HS film they are very similar players. Of course it depends on how much Brown is willing to keep his weight down and build more strength. However both were light on their feet for their size.

People will gloss over it because he is an FCS player but he will play in the NFL and we literally would not let him walkon.

Why wouldn't we let him walk on? I personally know 3 guys that walked on around the same time this guy would have been trying to and this guy obviously has way more talent

Bo Wallace.

Patrick Willis

Not the biggest pass, but Jeremy Jarmon. Phil told him "when he grew into his feet," he'd be a heck of a player, but didn't opt to offer him.

I know georgias biggest miss...eric berry. They liked caleb king more lmao

and Jasper Sanks over Jamal Lewis

Willis wasn't that bad because we still ended up with Jerrod Mayo.

actually it was Daniel Brooks
