'14 DC CB D'Andre Payne (UT commit 4/3/13)

[RiseToTheTop]

Still wanna see Foreman get a shot at KR.

Lol at that writer "He wasn’t just the best player on the field Thursday — he transcended the competition on the grandest stage" talking about a HS game and trying to sound all intellectual but essentially saying the same thing twice.

Don't disagree with you about him going overboard with that sentence but that game is a very big deal up there.

 

[sigchig]

Wharton will do both kr and pr imo. He is ridiculous at both in his film.

He's not completely back yet. Yeah he's hitting well but I see other things like his change of direction isn't all the way there yet. You can judge that by some of the angles he's taking.

I see it being more of a mental issue than a physical issue with his knee.

 

[RockVol]

I'm thinking Wharton for punt returner and Evan Berry for kickoff return.

I thought Pearson was supposed to do returns also?

 

[BornToBleedOrange]

Man we are going to have all kinds of speed on our KO and PRs! Pearson, Payne, Wharton, Berry, Foreman and if we get Adoree...:loco:

Is Foreman red shirting this year?

Is Foreman red shirting this year?

I don't think so, but not positive. I know he played in the Georgia game, so just guessing he didn't.

Thanks, I hope he can, because he has some great speed

EE or not???

EE or not???

His countdown to being at UT was at like 30 something days last I checked on his twitter.

Pretty sure he is and OCI just missed him.

Another poster also said he wasn't EE. I don't Remember who

EE or not???

Yes according to 247 FWIW

Dang, didn't he only play like half the season or am I thinking about someone else.

EE or not???

Yes, he is. I had not seen it confirmed and had seen some doubt on VQ, but that doubt appears to be gone.

Jones is expected to log more miles on Tuesday as he's expected to see D'Andre Payne and likely Neiko Creamer as well. Don't be surprised if Jones spends some time up in the Virginia, Washington D.C., Maryland area tomorrow or Wednesday as the Vols continue to make an effort to make that area more of a priority moving forward.

From all I've seen, Payne will be an EE. CBJ said in the last week that he expected 14-16 EEs. Now, that is 2 higher than he said before. Maybe there are people leaving or have left to free up 2 additional EE spots. I'm just not sure how they will make the numbers work. Wouldn't 16 be the seniors plus 2? What 2?

Not exactly going to be the best day to be traveling in the DC area.

Snow plow escorts. IMO

"Jones stopped at several schools in the Washington, D.C., area Tuesday before joining defensive backs coach Willie Martinez on an in-home visit with Top247 cornerback D’Andre Payne. Another projected early enrollee who’s committed to the Vols, Payne is scheduled to take his official visit to Tennessee this weekend."

I love Payne's athletic prowess and his overall game. A young T. Fair.

Can't wait for him to put on for the Vol Squad
