'14 TX DE Dimarya Mixon (UT commit 11/9/13)

Of all people StoVol you pick a fight with Ron SWANSON? He's pretty much the most liked and informative person on this board. I don't think someone pissed in his wheaties, I think someone took a gigantic $hit in them.

Don't bob your head too fast sig, I'm concerned you might get whiplash. Just looking out for a fellow Vol fan.

I think it will look something like this:
DE: Vereen, J Williams, Hendrix, Lewis, Henderson, Vickers
DT: Saulsberry, OBrien, O Williams, Carr, Clark, Barnett
My list would look the exact same except maybe Barnett over Clark, and I would definitely have Jaylen Miller in there at DE somewhere.

Also if Owen Williams could find a way to start, that would be great. I think Danny O is and will be good, but I don't think he's ready to get tons of snaps. If Owen isn't ready to start, we have no choice though.
 
The thing is we have been waiting for years for a bonafide game changer at DT they are one in a million. To be quite honest with you the change in offenses to more spread base you won't see to many of them.

I believe that we will continue to recruit jumbo DE's who could be a hybrid. Thomas and Hedrix will be very good. Outside of Suh as of recent their hasn't really been true game changers recently at DT more are at the DE position.

Dominique Easley, and we as vol fans should know this more than anybody
 
I think Vickers is a DE

I feel like someone posted some accurate current weights and Vickers and and Brown were getting into the 260-270 range

I believe the poster said they both will get a shot inside this Spring - again I don't know this nor do I remember if it came from someone like Hubbs or if it was a poster's opinion but it seems like they are trying to add weight to both of them to give themselves some more options inside

This would make sense because a few guys will HAVE to move inside in the spring/fall
 
Coach Steve Stripling on Mixon: "Dimarya has athletic ability, size, and plays with great effort. He is explosive and uses his hands very well. He is a motivated young man who we hope can contribute quickly."

Some high praise from Coach Stripling for Mixon. Encouraging.

Actually that should be able to be said about all of our recruits if they are doing their job as a recruiter correctly.

I doubt they'd be saying "we hope he can contribute quickly" about every single one of their recruits. To me it says "we expect him to play this year."
 
No game changers at DT in recent memory?
Just off top of my head, Aaron Donald, Dom Easely, Timmy Jernigan and Will Sutton this year alone were savage game changes

Louis nix last yr at ND.

Few years ago Nick Fairley and Gerald Mccoy were unblockable



Star lutiea (sp) also


i hope one or more of our guys can turn it on. Specifically and especially Carr.
 
I guess the last one we had was Big Dan Williams was drafted in first round same year as Eric Berry.
 
Impressed with his film. He uses his hands to get off blocks very well. We need more of that for sure.
