Number 77 looks like he is playing patty cake out there, actually a few of them did yesterday. It's time to grown up and at least try to play like grown men. I am all for Wiseman and Sanders getting a chance if this 5 can't give no better effort than that. Bring the competition on. GO VOLS!!
 
I don't easily offend,and usually just lurk.

I do appreciate the info some of the posters bring to the board, but I could do with a little less pettiness.

I even appreciate your brand of sarcasm.

Copyright pending. :wink2:
 
At this point we are all baffled that CBJ seemingly refuses to try something else. Maybe after watching our starting 5 get manhandled by UTC he'll be open to trying something new...but I wouldn't hold my breath on it.



"It's all about keeping our focus on the process. We have to trust the process & know exactly what we're doing schematically & then you'll see the gradual improvement necessary for competing in these great environments.

These kids have an affinity for the University of Tennessee & take great pride in their craft. Trust the process."


I feel like that's pretty accurate.
 
I remember reading about how they lifted in fall camp and Austin was one of the stronger kids there. It will be interesting what is said and done after they grade the film of yesterday's game. We'll probably never know but I wonder if some kids look better in practice than they can play in a game and vice versa. I believe I had read somewhere that UGA's Gurley hated practice and was not always 100% into it. We also don't know exactly what a coach is looking for out of a player. I certainly hope Austin moves up.
Antone Davis says Austin is "Killin' It!" In practice!

If the process is so complicated that you give up 6 sacks to UTC, and can't run on them at all then maybe you need to reevaluate the process.

Pulling for Austin............that's my boy, is Austin more of a guard or a tackle.........i thought he was a tackle in high school
 
They better give him a fair shake. If it is because of promises made, then we don't have the right coach. By the way, I think we do but we better get 6 wins or he better show marked improvement in 15 and 16. He gets four to five years but I hope he is putting the best players out there. I am seeing guys out of position and on the UTC sack/fumble, we had two guys hit nothing on the left side where the DE blew thru the line.

CT and JR weren't 5* guys. I find it hard to believe "promises were made" to those two.

Something isn't right. After 6 games the same mistakes are being made and no improvement is in sight.

Explain to me why you don't give someone else a chance.

If this is the best we have then I would hate to witness practice.

A blind man on crutches could lock up with a defensive end better than our current tackles.

I thought someone from Rogersville would know enough to understand that it takes time for freshmen OL to gain strength and experience. Its like explaining why a freshman from Cherokee has not received a scholar ship offer from a D1 school.

Here we go again. Then play the kids that are older and been in the program longer if the freshman obviously can't get it done.

So, your a square peg round hole person.
