Could very well play out that way. Stacking up kids at one position in one class is looked at differently by some. Just have to see what Bussey does. I think UT taking Kelly opens the door for Bussey to flip. JMO

Its not stacking recruits at one position when only two are the same class. We now have two soph rbs and two freshmen rbs. One of which will most likely redshirt.

You may see it that way. I just look at it if I were a recruit. Kamara just got to campus and is part of the 2015 class. He will figure into the other 2015 guys seeing carries or not.

I would usually agree, however, the depth chart is so thin I think he understands why we are also taking kelly in addition to him and Kamara.

RBs realize that it is in their best interests not to carry the ball every down, which is why UA is able to consistently sign 2-3 4* RBs every year. You can redshirt or play special teams for a year or two, get sporadic work for a year or two, be the featured back for a year, then go to the NFL as a healthy RB without a lot of miles.

Boom!!! Welcome to Rocky Top, Mr. Kelly!!

Good news today = Kelly committing and Coach Jake leaving!
Bad news today = LebVol is back, and still spewing uniformed diarrhea that Butch is a shady.

Not really. We are thin at RB. With Kelly's commitment today, that puts us at 4 scholarship RBs going into the 2015 season. If Bussey were to flip, look for Tennessee to turn up the heat on Love.

I think RDAIV will see some carries in 2015. Also Paulk could be in the discussion.

Pretty sure 95% of other schools will have more rbs with experience factoring into seeing carries than we do. We have ONE, let me repeat that ONE returning rb. Other than that theres a juco transfer whos a year older and a "lesser" rb committed. This is how i would guess a recruit would look at it if we are playing that angle.

Scatback/return specialist whos a senior and a guy whos future is nowhere near settled. Stud recruits are cocky and see playing time in their futures regardless of competition, especially at rb. Why else would bama, georgia, lsu, auburn, ohio state, oregon etc... continue to land big time players.

@D1JohnKelly: I'm officially a Tennessee Volunteer. Now it's time to get paid #GoVols #GBO #DreamTeam119 🍊🍊🍊

Please tell me "time to get paid" is weird lexicon youth use nowadays for something else.
