'10 FL DE Corey Lemonier

[Montrell Hardy]

I saw Copeland at TN's camp. IMO he simply does not have the frame to be a DT in college.

 

[VOL61]

Barton Simmons from Rivals said Tennessee may finish with a few suprises. He also said that Lemonier and Smith are really liking the Vols right now....

What do you mean? Big Dan is only listed as 6'3" and Copeland still has plenty of time to grow a couple more inches

He's not talking about height, he's talking about his physical make-up and structure.

I know this is the opposite of what normally happens, but what if he lost about 15-20 lbs, with his speed he could be a solid lb.

 

[hvwarrior58]

I don't see us having a 6'2 260 lb DE in this system. That's assuming he gains no more weight. That's an awfully stout frame for a HS Sr DE.

 

[hvwarrior58]

He would have to lose weight just to be a DE. That would likely not go over well with our coaches since it was there guidance for JC to gain weight in the first place.

 

[ooltewahvol]

someone that big would gain weight and be a DT for us

 

[Nashvegas31]

Lemonier is DE IMO and an athletic freak

There is a huge difference between height and a person's build/frame. Most people dont understand that. You cannot reshape a person's build.

Unless Copeland has added 35-40 lbs since camp he is nowhere near 260 lbs.

Agree. I really think Lemonier is suited very well to be a Strong-Side DE in the SEC.

 

[Orange Swagger]

He will be one STUD HOSS bring him on

 

[volguy0992]

MH, from what i heard JC has gained some weight since then... how much Idk, I may even be completely wrong, just what I heard.

 

[TheMayja]

I'm pretty sure Copeland's coach said he was between 255-260 in an interview....and that was back in August.

 

[k-sny-vol]

he could only be 6'2, but that doesnt matter.. He is very long which is a reason why he could get even bigger

 

[BillyHoyleVol]

Thats what she said!

Sorry, couldn't resist...

 

[hvwarrior58]

That's coming from his own mouth. He could be fabricating that, though.

 

[hvwarrior58]

According to an article written September 21, Copeland was up to 263.

:mf_surrender:

 

[Dudleys87]

DT or NT... at 263.

 

[Sabanocchio]

I'm sure there will be surprises. I spoke with someone close to Corey Lemonier and Calvin Smith last night and I know that both of those guys are really excited about Tennessee right now. With the names they are in on, Tennessee's finish will be maybe the most interesting finish in the nation.

Recruiting is a beautiful thing. :dance2:

 

[VolFromNashville]

THAT is what I like to hear. This will be fun guys. I wish NSD was closer!

 

[ninerplaya57]

I want NSD to come, but I can't wait till we see the EE's. I wouldn't think we would get a suprise on the EE's but you never know with this staff. After the EE's we will all have a better understanding of our needs and who our top targets will be.
