'10 PREP OL Morgan Moses

What has happened to Revis and Schofield, will either be a factor next year.

They both will especially Schofield. A lot of us on here get caught up in the hype of having a new player. It happens but expect them both to step in and play well for us next year.

I think Schoefield will be an excellent RT for us...

I also think alot of people are counting out Revis for one reason or another and I think that's foolish...

Ausmus will put about 20lbs on him and then you'll have a 6"4" 285lb athletic center with a mean streak...ala Scott Wells

Pretty much what I was thinking. So that would be at least three spots on the line shored up:

LT: Aaron Douglas
RT: Schofield
C: Revis
 
The defense is alot harder to do. They move the DBs around so much. This my opinion, assuming we don't get Luc and assuming we get Riley...

DE- Smith, Jr.
NT- Hughes, Sr.
DT- Walls, Jr.
DE- Miller, Jr.
SLB- King, Sr.
MLB- Taylor, Jr.
WLB- Askew, Sr.
CB- Edwards, Sr.
CB- Gordon, Sr.
FS- Jackson, Sr.
SS- Riley, Jr. (Myles here if we don't get Riley)

Backups:
DE- Fowlkes, Bohannon, Copeland
DT- Willis, Jeffrey, Copeland
LB- Mitchell-Thornton, Nelson, Williams
CB-Oliver
S- Waggner, Myles, Wilkes

The depth is not as good here imo. We really need 1 CB and 1 LB in these final 7 spots...

Hey Vader I think Myles will start there even if we get Riley.
 
Man, you seriously have no clue. Have you seen our depth on the OL next year? We are NOT going to replace our only returning starter with a true freshman. It's not going to happen. Honestly, that would be retarded. Douglas and Shaw are 2 sure fire starters next year. The other 3 spots are up for grabs...

And everybody who I trust is close to the situation says Shaw will make a move back to guard next year. It's almost a given he will be at guard. They will load up the left side side of the line with their best players, Shaw and Douglas. You need to pay a little more attention before you call me out...


+1 on this. I expect Schofield to start on the right side of the line next year. He should be getting lots of PT by the end of this season and will be fairly experienced next year.

If Jose Jose gets in early and comes along quickly at C then I think we will be fine next year and have 4 strong starters on the OL and lots of young guys to provide depth.

Does anbody else think Hood might play the RG spot early next season until we can bring along some Fr? I just can't see him as a full-time starting OL for UT very long.

I know it's hard if not impossible to project the 2011 class but you have to believe alot of those spots (starting or backup) will be filled by redshirt freshmen or sophomores from the 2011 class...particularly at DT and LB

Edit: I know it's neither here nor there but here's my LB and DT 2 deep for that year:

NT: Walls - Hughes
DT: Willis - Johnson (2011 class)

SLB: King - Johnson (2011 class)
MLB: Askew - Taylor
WLB: Shirley - Williams

You're telling me a guy (Shaw) who's been playing O-line for years comes out of Fall practice bracketed as a starter with a guy (Douglas) who has been playing the position for 1 Fall camp... is going to somehow switch to Guard... and have no worries of competition from any incoming player we get??

That doesn't add up to me. Give Douglas an offseason, spring, and another Fall as an O-lineman and he will easily beat out Shaw.... oh but wait, you have him moving from Tackle to Guard. Not gonna happen. We can reflect on this next year when I'm right.

This week Shaw is starting at Guard and Douglas is starting at Tackle. HI!... :eek:lol:
 
Isn't it his ankle thats hurt?

Yea his achilles is hurt. But that's not the injury that's keeping him out. He got some sort of knee injury against Florida. Things are looking a little better for him maybe getting on the field against Auburn, he is not on crutches anymore. Kiffin said they didn't know for sure how long he will be out, but he will be out for "a while."

Will be interesting to see Douglas, I guess we are gonna redshirt Hood, Scofield, and reveis. Morgan was my number one recruit I wanted last year, even though its a year later, hes gotta be a Vol LOCK! Just hope we show him more love than Butch does.

Walls will not beat out Hughes. Lathers will be a Jr in '11... and will not be sitting behind Freshmen.

Dallas Thomas is getting PT this year and will likely be in the mix next year. I believe Schofield will be an absolute stud for UT.

I'm interested to see if Hood can make a move. Alot of schools would have been after him if not for the trouble.

"Monday I had a talk with coach Cregg and he said basically that coach Kiffin wanted me to make a move inside, I guess to help get the best people on the field," Shaw said. "Getting A.D. (Douglas) in there and getting him some quality reps in the game. Getting me some reps at guard. He basically told me that's where I'm probably going to be at next year, so it's good for me to gain some game experience there this year."

This quote came from Jarrod Shaw. Hmm, looks like he will be playing Guard next year...
