'15 MD OT Pat Allen

I hope next year we go and get those 5* "can't miss" type of o lineman . It had been a while since we pulled top talent on the D line and Butch fixed that . Now it's time to do that for the O line


It sounds to me like he is doing that this year too.

CBJ doing work!!!

Allen also has a strong relationship with Tennessee’s coaching staff, and he is particularly fond of offensive line coach Don Mahoney, running backs coach Robert Gillespie and coach Butch Jones.
“Coach Mahoney is a great dude, along with coach Jones,” Allen said. “They are two great people to talk to, but then the running backs, coach Gillespie, and then (quality control) coach (Anthony) Parker, and they were fun to talk to.”

IMO really sounds like he favors Tennessee but waited too late. I wish Tennessee had room for both Allen and Richmond.

1. No room

2. They just got the OT they have always had at the top of their board.

Why risk putting doubt in his mind this late? Take Richmond and be glad you got him(along with 4 others on the OL).

If you saw the same line that I saw in '14, you saw an OL that needs tackles desperately. Is Blair the answer? I would hedge my bet by signing several top OTs with Leftside potential. Jack Jones is a Right OT (or maybe a guard). The cream will rise to the top.

5 OL guys is plenty in a class. 2016 countdown to NSD starts tomorrow. Ryan Johnson an OT is already in the boat. We're fine.

Boulware and Stewart project at guard
Blair still is an unknown @ LT
Hall will RS (achilles)

If the opp presents you take both Allen and Richmond to go w/ Jones

It appears Butch Jones does not agree with you. I'll trust his opinion on the matter.
 
I actually agree with Leb here. We have signed 5 excellent OL's this cycle. Jones, Boulware and Chance Hall all have frames and the feet to be OT's as well. It will be interesting to see how it all shakes out. We know Drew is going to play immediately somewhere on the OL.

To take it a step further, UT has already signed 4* Ryan Johnson and we are in on several of the best OT"s in the 2016 class. 2016's OT class is going to be disgusting as will be the secondary.
