where is inky? As for wilhoit no idea why he is on there

Umm, I dont know maybe because before he caught the injury bug he was a FRESHMAN ALL-AMERICAN. And, he is finally healthy again.

I hope you're right. He's kinda lacks ideal size though.


I thought for a long time that ideal size what important, but while reading a ton on this past NFL draft, they showed some stats that smaller CBs have fared better in the NFL than taller, stronger ones. Does this mean it works in college? Who knows, but if Morley is talented as people say, his size won't hinder him.

Will this be the best DB since 98?

Don't know where you guys are getting that... Morley has more than enough size. He is around 6'0 190 and most CBs are 5'11. He is basically the same size as Champ Bailey. I still don't understand why the coaches are putting him at safety he could be an absolute shutdown corner. Even at safety he still has enough size. Troy Polamalu is 5'10. Ed Reed is 5'11. Bob Sanders who was in the probowl last year is 5'8, Hefney actually reminds me a lot of him.

I think Tennessee has the talent to be a good team. I think we have some question mark areas, obviously, we just went 5-6. I think depth on the Oline is a serious concern. I think our starting unit can be pretty strong. Obviously we have to be concerned about the QB position to some degree at least. I think Ainge can potentially have a big comeback year and Crompton has some talent, but after last year, I will remain cautious unitl AInge shows the improvement I think he is capable of and Crompton is a RS Freshman. I think the heath of our RBs is a concern. They could all be fine by the time the season or fall practice starts, but right now, it is a concern. I think depth at DT is a bit of a concern right now, but Dan Brooks always has the young guys ready. Youth at LB could cause for some early growing pains at times, but I think the talent level is very high. I personally think this group may leaves as the best Chavis has had. I think our WRs will show their ability this year.

Thats just some of the "question marks" we have. That doesn't mean all those things will be problems. We might end up really liking the "answers" to those "questions".

I think thats a pretty good list for our guys. I think Sears is going to be terrific this year. Harrell is the man. Hefney is very solid. Arian Foster showed a lot of promise as a RS Freshman last year, but hasn't played enough to deserve higher on the preseason list, IMO. I think 3rd team is a good spot for him. I think McBride is a really talented player and is going to showcase that this year. I think Jon Wade has a big-time year. I think it all "comes together" for Wade. I think he makes himself a lot of money with his performance this year. I'm predicting he ends up 1st Team All-SEC. Just got a feeling.

Others guys have lots of talent as well. I think Inky is rock solid opposite Wade at CB. I think he did a very good job trying to replace Allen last year after being "thrown to the wolves" as a very inexperienced sophmore. I think Morely is a terrific talent as well. I think the secondar will be strong this year. I think Meachem has a lot of ability. I think young guys up front have lots of talent. I think Robert Ayers is primed for a breakout year, as is Xavier Mitchell. I love Mayo and McCoy at LB.

Not a Wilhoit fan. I mean obviously I pull for him, just don't think he deserves an All-SEC Team.
