From a poster on VQ who does a great job putting this together.
"For how many Freshman you start equals how many losses you will have? better bring your program on Saturday. Youth is served. tells you where they are in the depth wise. starting FR Sutton at one corner. 3rd corner is FR Foreman. 4th is a walk on Sr former track guy Reggie Juin. 4th safety is Max Arnold another walk on. will play special teams. will be some growing pains. the starting 4 ( Sutton, Coleman, Randolp and McNeil )is a better group than last yr. more athletic and more physical. just obvious depth concern.
Cam Sutton's upside? a lot of intangibles. great competitor. does not get rattled when something bad happens. he was starting over Jones even if Jones was healthy. plays physical. last yr corners could not run with people. Cam brings the atheletic ability you want
Worley? Butch wants more fire from him? patience had been greatly appreciated from the staff due to so many young receivers out there. young at TE as well. patiece have been needed. patience should be checked at the door now because its time to play now. he wants Worley to have a sense of emeregency. more demonstrative. demand excellence from the entire offense
What does your gut tell you on how TN will deploy the QBs? if things go according to script you will see 3 QBs saturday. was a little surprised to see Peterman as the clear number 2 ahead of Ferguson. both FR pushed Peterman hard. Ferguson is ahead of Dobbs now.
OL bonding through adverse situations? (several coaches over the yrs)? should be a great appreciation for the SR's on this team. easy thing to do is when it gets hard is to leave. Heinstand was hard to play for. they embraced Pittman to the point where they went to Hart and pleaded to keep Pittman. They have bought in to Mahoney. same thing for DL line. they have bought in. TN should be proud of this SR class.
Pig Howard? maturation? staff has some confidence. want more consistancy out of him and Young. youngest group of WR in the country. not anybody in the country younger at WR than TN. Pig has to prove it. he is more comfortable now. so does all the other WR's. staff has an idea of who the playmakers are but they got to prove it.
How much do you expect to see how TN stands after Saturday night? think its fools gold to think they have arrived if they play great this weekend. you can learn some mindset. learn on how to prepare. yesterday was a great ex. of that due to the heat and bunch cramped up. Butch talked about the lesson for the young guys on how to condidition your body. how close are they to understanding what it takes Mon-Fri to get ready for a FB game.
Frank rambling.....early signs to see for what the fanbase wants to see? thru out fall camp they did not have 100 play scrimmages. most of it was situational. where is the football IQ of this team, whats there tempo, wheres your checks, do they understand why things are happening? Understanding why will help this team win games. there football IQ is very important
4 coaches last 6 yrs? what stands out about Butchs staff in getting ready for the season? the teaching element. level of teaching going on every second. all hands on deck. this team is very different. Kiffins team had a young OL but had a QB and others that played. this team has more teaching going on because of inexperience. Coach Z has not beat them up mentally.
Candice Parker retireing number? well deserved. she is a icon to womens game. captured the sport by the way she played. she one of those that revolutionized the game. it means the world to her.
That's all folks! Go Vols!!!!!!"
