Zues doesn't have the quickness needed to play LT and especially not in this new system. He's a Fluker type (size wise) of RT.

I completely agree I don't see Zeus as a LT, he's more of a power road grader fits better at RT. and I think the Dj Fluker comparison is right on the money. Unfortunately I'm still unsure of who our future LT will be, hopefully we get Blair to ease transition. We really need a big touted LT in this class or next.

Would be nice to get the 5* tackle to commit to us, I know I'm dreaming but it can't hurt all the exposure that tiny is getting, has to help. The best thing for us is if tiny stays for senior season.

I believe the only way Tiny will stay is if, god forbid, he gets hurt early in the year. He's a first rounder.

Richardson did not get the accolades of some of the other players in the SEC Media Days Pre-season All-SEC Team.

Maybe he secretly wants that and may want to be part of turning this program around into the future.

wish the Alabama LT had to play Clowney, would be great to compare.

I guess I'm one of few that actually believes tiny stays, he's always bled orange and he loves tennessee, he's smart got a good head on his shoulders. Plus I don't think his stock goes down if he plays another year, if he was skill position I'd understand but the risk of linemen getting hurt is less than a player who is out in space. In my opinion. However if he is a top 10 projection i think he does leave. But if its just first round I think he stays. To help bring tenn back and improve his craft even more. Just my opinion.

If you are projected to go in the 1st... Go for the money!

I think he is suggesting the need for him to get some experience in.

I'd rather have an extra season with him. Opions of most out of Hs were that he wasn't yet physically ready.

With our depth, I doubt he'd get any real experience anyway. Redshirt him, and he'll be a major contributor next season.
