'15 NC DT Shy Tuttle (UT commit 9/26/14)

[BigVol80]

When do the EE's arrive?

More importantly, when are they locked in?

When class starts in January, technically they are locked in when they attend their first class, still nothing on paper until NSD.

 

[SteelerVol]

the defense is going to be a lot of fun to watch over the next few years.

Next year every offense we play in the SEC becomes one dimensional.

Mr. Tuttle, welcome to the family. This glass of Willet is in your honor!

I'm going to the FL UT game next week. I'm 0-4 when going to games.

Sir can you please step away from the tickets.

Got chills

If the game is won in the trenches, we are getting some big soldiers!

 

[VOLorNuttin]

Imagine this guy (commit Marques Ford) playing next to Tuttle. It ain't even gonna be a fair contest.

We won't have a DT under 290 next year

I disagree. Danny came into college at 300+ so I'm guessing this is the weight he likes playing at.

I think the coaches are going to try and get his, and both Williams' weight up to 300 or better, by next year.

Janzek was asked just before the start of the season if the undersized DT's was a concern. He said it was, but they would try to do some things technique-wise, to offset that.

Strip has been asked about the DT's size a few times and he said similar things. So, you can be sure they WANT those guys up to 300lbs. If they keep Mosley at DT, this is going to be the nastiest DT rotation I've seen since as long as I can remember.

The reason I could argue this won't happen, is DOB and Owen are probably our two strongest DTs. I think if they gain any weight it won't be much. McKenzie and Tuttle will bring the beef, I don't think we change our current guys unless it's 100% for the best. I wouldn't mind weight gain in theory though

They really pushed Jordan Williams to gain as much weight as possible, to move him to DT. It's not a lot of bad weight, either. So, I suspect they will continue to put on as much good weight as they can.

Both of those guys are relatively short, so it may not be so easy getting to the 300 mark.

This is probably the most glowing review of almost any player I've ever read. I was very excited about Tuttle before that article, but, after reading that article, K-Mac and Tuttle seem to have the potential to be Haynesworth and Henderson 2.0.

 

[VOLorNuttin]

This is going to be like watching a trainwreck on most every defensive series....but in a good way, for us.

 

[UTvol1fn]

apologies for getting in so late.....

 

[Nashvegas31]

Tuttle and McKenzie would have been huge today. No push from our interior

 

[RiseToTheTop]

they really werent that bad. broke down some in the 4th qtr but thats what happens when your offense is stalling in the middle of the 2nd half.
