Unbelievable, we need their depth

 

[VolinArizona]

Marc, I was wrong, and I apologize. I put my trust in the wrong outlet. You were right, I was wrong.

You behaved poorly, but I'll take the crow. Good call.

Sadness.

 

[GAVol]

Makes you wonder if it's that academic progress rule that was rumored to have been an issue a couple of months ago.

 

[Ohiovol09]

Damnit!!!!!!

 

[VolinArizona]

As much as I gave crap to LG about bringing it up about JUST Ramar, when it's both of the guys who were said to be in academic trouble, then I do cast a curious eye.

Could be the green, though.

 

[NEW COACH]

I believed Maggard all along.


This sucks but atleast we have some schollie's and should get Maze and Rashanti Harris.

Here is a link. Anyone know REAL reason why, not speculation and could they come back?

I'd rather have duke and ramar.

 

[VolinArizona]

Maze isn't worth wasting a scholly when the 2009 class is absolutely effing loaded.

 

[TennesseeFan07]

Will Harris be playing for the Vols next year?

 

[VolinArizona]

Harris hasn't been offered afaik

 

[NEW COACH]

I was just trying to stay positive. VIA, we need 2 PG's right? JP can't play PG so who else other than Maze?

 

[TennesseeFan07]

Maze isn't worth wasting a scholly when the 2009 class is absolutely effing loaded.

Do you want to throw a Freshman out to the wolves or to have to rely on JP playing point guard? I agree that the 09 class is loaded, but you're screwed pretty much. You have to get a PG for next season and unfortunately that's going to take us a scholly away for next season.

Daniel West, genius. Pay attention.

I don't think that JP is a good point guard option at all. However, I don't think it's fair to say that he proved that last season. I think that if he approached the offseason as a point guard and actually had time to practice and re-develop the position he could serve as a backup.

 

[Ohiovol09]

We have what we need for next year, although I really would like another PG to help back up Daniel West. Save the scholorships for the 09 class with the exception of a possible PG.

 

[TennesseeFan07]

Harris hasn't been offered afaik

But he doesn't have to go to any prep school or anything? He could enroll and play for the Vols next season if he's offered?

 

[VolinArizona]

Maybe Maze is great, but I'd rather them sign Michael Dixon.

Same here.

 

[NEW COACH]

I know D. West! who else? I'm not counting JP !

 

[doozer]

any word on why?

 

[Ohiovol09]

I guess JP could play some minutes at PG to give Daniel West a break, and with more practice and experience JP could only get better, although I would rather have a true PG.

 

[VolinArizona]

Or neither.
