'10 CA DT George Uko

I think another year getting taught by Coach O & proving he can stay healthy because he has had some health issues this year will only make his stock rise for the draft.

Do you see any of the DL we got coming in being redshirted for next year?

If Willis starts off at DT, I'd say he will. Copeland will.
 
I just cant help but look at our DL commitments & DL that we might be getting & just get excited about how nasty & DL will be in a few years. It's just ridiculious.
 
I always forget about Copeland too. He probably will.

Willis may not though, just because we don't have much of anyone behind Montori and Marlon next year. Sykes and I think Mathis? Uhhhh
 
Don't Forget Donald. He is a DE now. If Crompton can be fixed so can he. Heck this staff has me believing they can turn anyone into a SEC football player. I plan on walking on as the 30 year old water boy. I will be in the NFL in no time.
 
It's nice to finally have some DL depth, i know it's been a few years since we had this much depth. I said the day we hired Coach O that i hope he will load up on some DL & we can have a rotation like LSU does.
 
Hughes and Walls would be my early predictions to start. Sykes will probably be a pass rushing DT for us. Willis could probably help in that department too.
 
I like our DEs next year. we are still a little bit thin in the middle. O was trying to get some JUCO DT to address this issue, but seems like Harris and Brown are not very solid right now. George Uko would be huge, but I still think we need one JUCO DT...
 
I think our starting DTs will be fine next year. We just need some people to step up so we can have a solid rotation.
 
Walker will definitely be back. The draft is loaded with defensive players and he's had to fight off injuries for the mid part of the season. He needs to maintain his health and add a few lbs.
 
Uko a lock according to VQ on TOS?

Just want a public announcement before jumping up and down
 
I don't know about this.... The kid hasn't even came on a visit yet. I don't see how he could be a lock. This is kind of out of nowhere. I am not saying we may not be in it but I think we would have to get a visit first to even be close to Lock status.....

-- Looks like O closed the deal... would bet it all on Uko to UT

There is not indecision there... like I said, Lock.

the guy that posted this is usually solid
 
Bluetick likes to post these type things.... Sometimes they happen.... Sometimes they don't.... But this one is kind of out of left field. You have to think he has heard something but I just don't see the guy as a lock when he hasn't even visited plus USC is really after this kid. He is the best DT I have seen on film from Rivals. He would be near the top of our list if he did come IMO. He looks the part and has a motor that doesn't stop. I hope we get him. But I will wait for Hubbs or at least a visit before I get to excited....
 
All we have heard for a long time was a USC/CAL battle, but both programs look iffy this year. USC just gave up 47 and CAL has been pretty bad on D. UT may be 5-4 but the avg person can see that we are on the rise and Monte's first string D has given up no more than 26 in a game.

he's pretty adamant about this one
 
We are doing very well with D line recruiting, but we need O line and we need em bad
 
We weren't even in Uko's Top 3, IIRC. This is something to be skeptical of for sure. We do, however, have the best recruiting staff in America.
