'20 GA RB Len'Neth Whitehead (UT SIGNEE)

[SouthKnoxVOL]

The CB's will probably start shifting to us in the next few days.

You guys got it all wrong.

He's not wrong technically. It's just that ... South Carolina will probably have to hire a better coach to get there.

It's difficult to think of too many coaches who have underperformed with loads of talent more than Muschamp. I don't even understand how he underperforms so badly given how good he is at coaching defense. He's the perfect example of the Peter principle; he's great as a DC and terrible as a HC. All it took was one year for McElwain to go 10-2 with Muschamp's roster; and McElwain was a pretty mediocre coach.

Where is Question Mark ranked in the Team Rankings on 247?

Sorry, could not resist...

So if we get this kid Tisdol, and Kaho that makes what, 6 LB's in this class?

Look at the depth chart for next year. Between OLB and ILB .. we will need at least 6 LBs in the 2020 class..

How many do we need for the 4 lb positions, 12 total ?

If that trashcan was toted around the sideline with Pruitt in charge he’d have a stroke. So lame.

I'm aware lol
Was just asking a question

 

[smokeyz1]

I think 12 total is about right. That would be 3 deep at OLB and ILB. You definitely need 2 deep that you trust to put in a close game.

Lame is hiring a coach who's moral compass points towards bargain isle at Big Lots, precisely where we found him - and that Turnover Trashcan.

What kind of a doucher goes from P5 HC to College intern? Wait! Got it! It's the 'beta' who preached 'alpha'.

I don't think he is able to analyze and learn from mistakes...Pruitt on the other hand knew he had made a bad mistake with Helton, and so he fixed it. He seems to learn pretty quick.

LBs also make up a lot of special teams positions too.

Latest 247 article makes it sound like UT has the momentum

3. Tennessee has regained the momentum with Len'Neth Whitehead.
Whitehead, a top-100 prospect in 247Sports' rankings, has been one of Tennessee's top targets for months. The Vols extended an offer to the four-star linebacker more than a year ago, and he has visited them twice this year, including his official visit to Knoxville the weekend of Aug. 31 for their season-opening loss to Georgia State.
Over the past couple of months, though, South Carolina appeared to have emerged as the team to beat for Whitehead, a standout at Athens (Ga.) Academy who could play running back or linebacker in college. He once planned to take an official visit to Wisconsin earlier this month, too, while Tennessee seemed to have lost some ground with him but quietly remained in the picture.

Things have changed a bit recently, though, at least in part because of South Carolina's recent struggles. The 6-foot-1, 230-pound Whitehead also remains very interested in potentially playing running back in college, and Tennessee has continued to tell him that it's open to giving him a chance to play there.
Whitehead once planned to announce a decision on Nov. 15. He recently decided to push back his announcement, though, and he's expected to visit the Vols again before making his choice. That bodes well for Tennessee in a hard-fought recruitment that once appeared to be trending away from the Vols. It might not be fair to suggest Tennessee now is the clear favorite to land Whitehead, but the momentum clearly has started to shift back toward the Vols.

He has always seemed to struggle with getting a quality OC, either at SC or at UF.

He screwed himself this year. He probably could have had a couple of established choices and instead chose to promote McLendon for recruiting and to keep him a away from other schools.

well, to be fair, McClendon was on a couple program's short list...ours included. everyone thought that was a good hire.....it certainly gave them a shot in the arm in recruiting.

He was our first choice for RB coach...never a candidate for OC. Helton had already been hired.

Yeah, I feel like the issue with Muschamp's OCs might actually be Muschamp. A bad head coach can make everyone else look bad. And pretty much every OC Muschamp has ever had has looked bad.
