'09 GA LB Robert Nelson

[vols kick balls]

4 committed lb's right now

walls...will play DL based on his rumored size
shackelford
askew
mitchell-thorton
nelson and another will be needed

Shackleford will end up playing with his hand on the ground.

 

[VOL61]

Nelson is a OLB were Askew and Mitchell-thorton will play inside. We need Nelson. We also want Patrick badly. It will be alot tougher to get Tana though.

 

[NochNoch]

Shackleford will end up playing with his hand on the ground?

I'm confused, I read that as a statement but then you ended it with a question mark.

I'm Ron Burgundy?

Thanks, just a typo.

That is what I meant when I said he and Mitchell-thorton would play inside.

 

[NYYVol]

stats as a junior were absolutely sick.

176 tackles, 25 tackles for loss, and 18 sacks

That's Playstation sick...

Askew, Nelson, Patrick?

Nice trio.

 

[Knox9552]

don't forget O-Line.

Wouldn't call em the thinnest lol:lol:

Nothing the old S&C coach can't work out.

 

[chavisut]

Shackleford will end up playing with his hand on the ground.

I wouldn't be shocked to see NMT doing the same.

 

[rgvol]

Scout is saying Nelson is a commit

 

[The Breakerboy]

I like this guy. He's one of those fast and furious backers that comes to meet you in the backfield. He also plays downhill. Really like this guy. Great pickup.

[rgvol]

they say he is rated a little low becouse he is kinda small but fast and is a hitting machine

 

[chavisut]

Great fit for our outside.

Yeah it's his size that has him that low. But he'll be alright in our defensive scheme.

his highlights are pretty impressive

 

[rgvol]

great pick up GO VOLS

 

[gainesvol82]

I like his size(that sounds so gay). He will probably grow another inch and end up 6"1 but he is already pretty stout. He could easily pack on another 10 or 15 lbs of muscle without losing speed.

 

[dyer_maker]

It's a free one.

I think he is going to be, provided Tennessee offers this weekend as Nelson expects. Nelson told me today on his drive up that he did not have an official offer, but was told he was getting one this weekend.

Nelson said provided he was comfortable with the new coaches that he would be a Vol.

from Hubbs when asked if Nelson had committed

Great article. Had 40 school offers...including Alabama and Auburn. Love it.

 

[JMBIGORANGE]

I wouldn't be shocked to see NMT doing the same.

Remember this is Monte Kiffins defense not Chavis'. Could play LB.

 

[chavisut]

I know. NMT's best chance at LB would be in the middle and I don't see him beating out Askew. His speed is lacking to play on the outside. JMO and its really impossible to say right now. Who knows, he might prove to be the best player in this class and force Askew to move.
