Devrin and Lane expected to be back this weekend

[VolinWayne]

I did not see this posted anywhere. This will definitely help us finish this gauntlett. I am on mobile and I don't know how to link the article. I apolize for the inconvenience this may be for some of you! It was an article by Zack Ragan. Coach did say Devrin will be eased back into the game-plan. I hope he "eases" a punt back to the house!

Tennessee Volunteers' Marlin Lane should return; Curt Maggitt still out - ESPN

awesome! we need the weapons, not to mention depth.

Going to redshirt Maggitt? I am actually for this if he isn't going to be 100% this year.

Does Devrin immediately handle punt returns?

 

[VOLinPride]

Yeah, I have class with Lane. I asked him the other day if he will be back Saturday and he said he would for sure.

Not trying to be a killjoy.... but I'd trade both for Saulsberry. He was UT's best DT when he went down and could be the difference in this game. He was probably more disruptive than any other UT DL.

My guess is no coming off a hand injury. I'd expect him to be returning kicks though.

Is he out for the season or will he be coming back at some point as well?

I'd love to see him uncork a huge return against USC. Big Devrin fan.

Hate on me all you want, but I've never been impressed by Devrin. Don't understand why everyone thinks he's so great. On a different note, excited that Lane will be back in action.

Any word on whether Riyhad( Spell check?) Jones will play this weekend?

Im thinking at this point he might as well redshirt

Is it just me every time he goes back for a punt I think he is going to fumble.:unsure:

We could use him but if he is not ready this week put a redshirt tag on him, be nice to have him at 100 percent from the start next year.:rock:

Not saying I don't like devrin but when is the last time we actually returned a kickoff or punt for a TD?

Last year CP did took a KO and a punt to the house. DY has a total of 1 kickoff return this year and it was for 58 yards. As a punt returner I actually like JC better but he obviously isn't a home run threat either.

 

[jgvol1986]

I forgot about CP last year but not including CP last year i think it's been a long time.

Hubbs said on the radio that he would field kick off and punts, did in practice yesterday with no issues, but would be in the offense. Said Lane will rest Neal and Saulsberry would play only in pass rush situations.

Why wouldn't you include last year?

 

[VolinWayne]

I have not noticed that. How many punts has he fumbled? I honestly don't remember any.

 

[jgvol1986]

In case your eyes aren't working i said i forgot about last year!!

 

[Orange Blazer]

In case your eyes aren't working i said i forgot about last year!!

You also said "not including last year it's been a while."

 

[jgvol1986]

Yes but since i had forgotten about last year i wasn't thinking about last year when i posted so it had been a while is what i was thinking.

IIRC, his injury was a partial MCL. Normally he would be about due to return.
