'20 MI OL Justin Rogers (Kroger Field, folks)

[VolInDayton]

If we can land him we will be in shape for a back to back good Oline classes with all the instate talent we have.

Building a good Oline is one of the most important and hardest things to do.

When we land this kid everyone can thank our heisman qb that folks wanted to see gone .

Couldn’t help but notice you didn’t say “our former IMG head coach..”.

Oak Park, Michigan offensive lineman Justin Rogers visited Tennessee twice in recent months. He's coveted by all the top programs in and country, but there is just something about Tennessee that peaks his interest.

"They have coaches there that I have good relationships with," Rogers said. "I like Coach Pruitt, coach Weinke and just the overall staff. I have a good relationship with coach Chaney and I like how he does as the offensive coordinator."

Tennessee continues to try and retool the offensive line. It was a priority in 2019 and will be so again in 2020.

"I want to play around other great players and I want competition," Rogers said. "I feel like I can play anything on the field. I think I bring a lot to the table."

Rogers could play just about anywhere on the offensive line, but if you ask him, he is best suited for anywhere on the field.

"I like defense," Rogers said. "I'm real explosive and I don't take reps off. Tennessee has told me I could play both sides. They say I could just come in and figure it out."

Rogers has plenty of interest from southern schools. In fact, most of his top schools are down south, which is why Tennessee, Georgia and others have him engaged in their sales pitch.

"I just want to get out of the midwest," Rogers said. "All of those schools have something different to offer and they have made me a priority."

Would immediately help either line.

Personally hoping we put him at DT. Build the DL like we started the OL rebuild this year.

Henderson, Haynesworth, and Rogers

I think the staff’s “get on campus and we’ll figure out your position” stand plays well with high school guys. Let’s them know they have a shot at playing wherevever they play best, not just the spot that the school needs the most.

This kid is a road grading Guard all the way

Yep, going to slide in perfect next to either Wanya or Wright. Like a game of Tetris he’ll fall right in place

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

There’s the Weinke mention, @Bassmaster_Vol

This kid is my top want in the early 2020 recruiting cycle. Talk about a good start....

 

[LibertyVol]

This is what is called out recruiting the big boys. With players like this it won't be long until Tennessee is back. Rogers is a stud.

 

[T Dog]

This could be the best DL we have had in a Long time.

This. Plus with all the OL we seem to be in on in next years class anyway.

We already have addressed one of the biggest needs (Bailey) in my opinion of the 2020 class, but I agree OL/DL is right there too. This kid would definitely fill a huge need.

 

[LouderVol]

kid is pretty smart. knows he wants out of the midwest.

 

[Bring_Back_Dooley]

It might as well be a commitment. He’s a Vol.

 

[swchandler1988]

Same HS as JK Shuttlesworth

Keep this kid on the OL. He’s an ELITE prospect at Guard.

Give me an elite O-Line that controls the clock and keeps our D-Line fresh.
