Boy it didnt take long for the lame azz Paul Bain jokes to start I see. Ugh. Anyway, how sick would our DL be if we getting this guy? I mean a rotation of KMac, Tuttle, Phillips, Taylor, Johnson, Brown, Sapp and Barnett? Whoa.

Starting to get some depth which is so crucial. Already being out Tuttle and Maggitt sucks, but in the future we will be in a better situation if/when someone goes down.

Yeah the Tuttle injury really hurts for the Bama game. Adding Brown would do great for depth. His film is great. Great motor and he seems really strong. Want badly.
 
This visit definitely helped Tennessee," said Brown. "It beat my expectations by a lot.

"It was definitely a great environment Saturday. It is the loudest place I have ever been. After talking to the coaches a little bit after the game, I put my headphones on to listen to music and my ears were still ringing from the noise in the stadium. I could barely hear the music."



"I was at Auburn a couple of years ago when Chris Davis ran that ball back against Alabama, and it was louder than that."



"They just keep telling me they want me to be a part of it there at Tennessee," said Brown. "They have told me it is about family there, not about individuals, and I see that."

If Butch pulls Brown, Hardman, and Davis out of Georgia then he's officially the greatest recruiter ever. That would be 3 out of state 5-star recruits with no ties.

Remarkable.

Seeing KMack and Tuttle play had to help us as well. Butch is seriously going to get mileage out of playing freshmen for three classes in a row.
There ain't no doubt he would be a regular part of the rotation. Aside from KMac and Tuttle, we have no size at DT. Everybody else is about 280-290. That might seem to be ok, but it ain't when you face teams with 330lb OG's from week to week.

I personally think we were exposed in that area by Ark vaunted OL. Bama shut Ark's run game down, because they have the big horses in the middle. So, we actually need a LOT of help at that position. Williams is a senior, so that's one hole to fill.

Love the optimism. Wish I felt that good about it. I think if we really had a chance at least one of those guys would've committed after the game. That didn't happen so I'm pretty sure they're all Dawgs. But who knows you may be right. If we beat Bama next week I would feel like you are 100% right.

Davis will most likely be a vol in a week

Brown and Davis are not Dawgs... could be Auburn Tigers but not Dawgs.

Hardman is probably a Dawg, though.

Don't be surprised if Butch Jones shows up at Lanier High School in Georgia with Robert Gillespie on Friday to see defensive tackle Derrick Brown. Gillespie is expected to hit up several other schools in the area Friday as well.
