fwiw word on a premium board is Hunter was going to be Kiffin's NSD surprise (like he did with Janzen Jackson) and because Dooley isn't a complete tool and douche like Kiffin found out and got Hunter to commit earlier.
TitanHope said:Dang, didn't know that. Would've been a dick move, but a WR corps of Markeith Ambles, Justin Hunter, Matt Milton, and JUCO Kenbrell Thompkins would've been insane.
May not've just been a character move by Dooley, but it also keeps Vols spirits high and helps him build more momentum after getting current commits to stay and then still pulling other guys in.
I think defense will be ok. Our main threats FL and Bama will not have the strongest offenses next year. FL is basically starting with a whole new system. And the new qb will not be running it up the middle 30 times a game. And Bama just basically plays big ten football. I also think us starting alot of freshman and having freshamn rotating in last year will help us alot. Believe we still pick up some good d players and will find a very good coordinator.
I watched the vids, the kid seems good, but doesn't seem as fast as the 4.4 speed someone said he was supposed to have
Long legs = Long Stride
He's top end fast...really, really fast. You must remember, he's got track speed. He's quite a bit faster than Milton, Ambles or even Prater. How well that will translate to SEC football is anyone's guess, but I'd be willing to bet he ends up a coverage nightmare for any team he plays.
I've seen the kid run the 100m, 200m, and 400m. He's every bit as fast as any other 6 foot plus receiver in this class.
