He would be in the '10 class. He would be one of the 30 that we can sign...

Wasn't the general feeling that this guy missed his chance here when he couldn't make it in last year? I thought everybody seemed to be under the impression that we might not even pursue him again bc of the better WRs we were going to sign in the '10 class. Does coming in in Jan. make all that a moot point?

Every receiver that steps foot on UT campus from January '10 on out will be better than any receiver we have on our roster right now

It seems like not that long ago people were calling this guy a chump and that we didn't want him. Everyone was saying that they are glad he didn't make into school. People seem pretty excited now........oh the life of recruiting.

I do think we are going to see a huge difference as we get these bigger WR's in here that actually want to be a part of the team (unlike Warren apparently).

I didn't say a single word about him. Didn't know what his situation was, nor what the staff thought about it.

Nu'Keese needs to learn the playbook and Teague just needs to continue to learn the position. ZR will also contribute. They're just true freshmen and could still have excellent careers.

Someone just called Hyams and asked about James Green. All he knew was he did not show up because of academics. Did not seem to know about the latest rumors. Volnation is a much better source of info than the SportsAnimal.

it seems like all of our wr's with the exception of milton are in the 6' 2'' range. i think we have enough talented short fast wr's and need some more tall guys.

Are you suggesting that 6'2 is short?

not short but in football terms i consider a 6'2 receiver to be a quicker guy, which is good to have, i'd just like to get a few more 6'6 guys to put on the outside. they would be a great complement to nuke, teauge, cobbs, ambles, meline, and green. especially in the red zone in jump ball situations.

6'6 is rare for a WR.

6'3+ is usually considered a big WR so I'm not sure what you're talking about. 6'2 is fine - Meachem wasn't much bigger than 6'2 (if at all and he was considered balanced/physical). It's better than what we have now.

6'6 is huge. I can't think of any WR's that height that are good. I guess Nu'keese is a "little person" then. I think R. Moss is 6'4 and that is pretty huge when you realize that DB's are around 5'9. I'm thrilled with our 6'2 guys personally

i agree that 6'6 is rare. and anybody that knows were to line up and can catch is better than what we got now. i think all our young guys and recruits can be special. i just think getting one of those rare guys is would take our wide receiver class from great to special

i thought aj green and julio jones were 6'6. just realized they're listed at 6'5 and 6'4. i am very exited about the guys we have coming in. 6'2 range is the type of guy to build a wr squad around. just 1 or 2 in the 6'3 to 6'6 range. with milton coming in at 6'6 adding one more guy between 6'3-6'6 would complete an already great wr class
