Does anyone have anything on his status?

I havent heard anything recently and didnt know if anyone had any news. Thanks in advance and sorry if I missed it! Go Vols!!

:hi:

No news is good news. At the end of spring practice he was admitted back into team activities. I don't want to hear anything about him until fall camp. And then I only want to hear how he's pushing Neal for carries.

 

[IBLEEDORANGE16]

I agree. I was hoping that since there wasnt anything being said that was a good thing. We need depth and he should have a great year behind our OL.

Exactly! As long as we're not hearing anything that's a positive.

By all accounts(Hubbs, Fort, TSR crew, Ainge, etc.), it seems as if there is cautious optimism that Lane will be back.

 

[vol2002]

Hubbs and P Fort on the VQ podcast last week indicated it would be a surprise at this point if Lane wasn't back with the team in early June. So, I'm expecting hear he is fully back with the team, once June workouts roll around.

Eric Gordon? Not so much...

I'm ready for Lane to live up to his potential. He was a HIGHLY sought after recruit that we snagged. I hope CBJ and CRG can get him to where I know he wants to be.

what's up with gordon?

Probably because it has something to do with peeing in a cup. It's science.

Eric Gordon has probably played his last game in the orange and white. I hate that becasue he would have been our starting Nickle and we need depth and experience.

Lane has a lot of potential and I was hoping this new staff could bring him to the level of play that we all know he is capapble of.

 

[btrotter]

What were Gordon's personal issues they have been referring to?

Higher expectations, maybe.

 

[Volunteer forever]

Dang I got nervous when I saw this thread!!

 

[CNCVol88]

Higher expectations, maybe.

As in the coaching staff has higher expectations of him I assume

He would have lived up to his potential last year if those clowns would have given him more than 5 carries a game.

Yes. It was a thinker.

This!

Isn't that the damn truth. He was running very hard everytime he touched the ball.

 

[terrypedigo]

He will be back, got to sweep the parking lot a time or 2.

 

[terrypedigo]

Isn't that the damn truth. He was running very hard everytime he touched the ball.

If you remember started putting the ball on the ground, if he could hold on to the ball he would be our best pure back.

 

[Col_Cathcart]

He woulda gotten a lot more carries last year if he could have avoided the fumbles, especially when Neal was hurt.

You bammers wrote the book on that sh*t. Deer urine, you remember. :yes:

Exactly! I hope to see him get 20+ carries a game this fall.

I mean, wasn't he averaging like 6 YPC?

He had 120 attempts in 12 games. It's ok though, I make up facts all the time.
