My prediction- Rollins completely balls out again this year, wins another championship, and gets a UT offer.

Bucknell offered today that makes 3 offers for him. Shouldn't be long before some bigger schools come knocking

I'd say they would have a great recruiting pitch. Outstanding academic standards and a degree from there would take him a long way in life outside of football. And not to mention he would most likely have immediate playing time.

We already have this kid on our team. His name is Devin Young. I'll pass.

I think this kid could help this team, possibly CB. Special teams. Has great speed. DY will be gone the next year. This kid can play

Come on man, be respectful to the kid and his family/process. My opinion and your opinion don't really matter anyway.

So I am supposed to kiss this kids a$$ because he is from Knoxville and some people here are fans of his?

Bottom line is that all kids are not good enough, big enough, or have the skills to play for the Vols. Sorry if the truth hurts.

You may not think he has the proper skill set but he may very well be a VFL anyway. These kids have teams they grew up loving and the fans of those teams should have enough respect for them to be a little more supportive of them. Regardless of whether a message board coach thinks they have the proper skill set. You are of course entitled to your opinion but you can do it with a little more respect for these kids and the process they are going through. Nothing but love for VFLs!

Get over yourselves. There are many kids who grow up wanting to be a Vol. However, there are road blocks to reaching that goal. I want to win at UT and that means we have to pass on some good kids and some kids who do not have the size to play.

You must not want to win at UT too bad since you think this kids skill set isn't worthy of the Tennessee staff's attention. Bottom line is the kid is a playmaker.

College football is full of players 3-5 inches taller than him, 30-40 pounds heavier, just as fast and makes the same plays. I'll take the bigger and stronger versions any day.

I do believe I said you could voice your opinion. I just said that you should do it with a little more respect. These kids work their tails off and yes some of them will not make it to UT but what happens when they grow up and have kids that are ballers and UT tries to recruit them. Do you think they will be receptive to UT if our fans were disrespectful of them during their recruitment. Lets think about how the kids view us and how they wil view us twenty years from now. That's all. Now you can come back with some defensive comment even though I never actually attacked you.

You may continue to walk on on eggshells for the rest of your life.

Have you heard of a strength and conditioning program? Tennessee has a great one and they can bulk him up. Who knows this kid might actually have some growing left to do.
