'11 FL LB Gionni Paul

He should IMO, based off his Junior film & the Senior season he had. I'd like to see his Senior film but it has'nt been released yet.

I thought so too (although I might be biased since he's probably coming to UT :)).

He was killing it in the video. He had great pursuit, was instinctual, and was a hard hitter. Looks like a stud doing that against FL competition...
 
I think if anyone gets a greyshirt (even though I think the greyshirt talk is being taken a little too far) it would have to be Carson. However, I don't think the staff should because his film looks pretty dang good to me; his stats speak for themselves. I don't think it is unknown that it will definitely be interesting to see how the staff finishes off this class. We aren't going to pass on Dawson or Moore or Lanier if they want to come, but then again, we need DTs. An option could be just shifting around guys we already have on the team to DT (Miller, ie) and keep Lanier, Dawson, and such on board.

I don't understand all the talk about grayshirting or dropping Carson. He is probably the most underrated recruit we have, and he will be very good, especially as a NT in a 3/4 defense. Carson is a recruit that we will be glad to have here.

Paul is a better LB than A.J. Johnson imo.

If Dawson wants to come do You think aj will be moved to de? He reminds me a lot of Marlon walls and that's because he's a guy that has the frame to put on more weight.

+1... he is a guy people will fall in love with at ut. After Carson goes through Wiley and gets the bad weight off, he is going to be a dominant force at ut.

AJ could be a freak at MLB. IMO
 
Sounds like we have a great shot at getting Paul. I hope we get Dawson as well. Not only is he a great LB, but the meltdown on the UK boards would be epic.
 
This kid should be a 4*, He could be an impact player in the LB rotation right away. the way he diagnoses run or pass is freakish and that is just his junior tape. Even when he bites on Play action he has the lateral speed to chase down the play. It seems he also has an uncanny ablility to figure out where a play is going to go before it fully develops. I hope we get a public trigger pull soon so I can :loco: around my house.

I dont think Carson is really underated. I think he is going to have major weight issues in college as well as staying in football playing shape.

IDK.......Tough to say, but I see your point. However it worked out for Mt. Cody and he was well..........overweight

I was responding to someone else about the greyshirt topic. And where does everyone keep getting this idea that we're going to a 3-4? Just because CNS utilizes it? I never said I didn't want Carson, my earlier post says his stats speak for themselves and the fact he was dropped to a 2* because of one game is BS.

And he most underrated recruit we have, IMO, is clearly Randolph. Kid is a beast. 3* my a**.

“It was a great visit,” Paul told InsideTennessee.com late Sunday evening. “It was a lot better than I expected it to be.”

“I haven’t committed to anyone yet,” Paul said. “I will announce my final decision in the next week or so.”

Paul wasn’t the only one impressed with Tennessee.

“My mom and dad loved it a lot,” Paul said. “They really liked Coach Dooley a lot.”

“I like Tennessee a lot,” Paul said. “They are very high on my list.”
