New Roster relesed over weekend...

Tightends Branisel and Downs are under 230 at 224 and 228 respectively. Interesting strategy for our TE's.

Ryan Jenkins has also gained 21 pounds since the last update and is now at 206.

"Individually, the Vols gained 419 pounds and lost 135 since the last roster update to net a 284-pound gain."

That's bull. Highly unlikely each player has gained 419lbs and lost 136lbs. Now if you mean collectively, sure, but individually? Hardee har har. That makes them freaking yoyos and unhealthy ones at that.

Jason Croom, man oh man, he start catching passes, it will be no fun to tackle that hulking WR. Six foot five and 234lbs? That's mean!

Alden Hill - I hope he gets his chances. Hurd not withstanding, i think Hill is a bowling ball of a RB. It will be lost to not use him.

He is out for the spring, but should be ready by the time Summer comes. He will be firmly in the 2 deep mix.

Agreed. Saulsberry and Carr have the most upside of any of the DTs that are currently on the roster. Before TS got injured last year, he was playing well.

Players that needed to lose lost and vice versa,which equates to more overall team speed and stamina.

Jordan Williams is almost big enough to play every spot on the DL depending on what down it is. should help being versatile. hoping Carr comes around and Troy Lewis can help some. He has gotten big.

Hope that Hendrix and Henderson relegate Williams to being a depth guy by midseason or sooner. Both are more talented and project to be studs at UT .... don't see Williams doing much because so far he hasn't. Hope to be proven wrong.

Don't know how accurate this link is. Dobbs is listed at 193 lbs. Butch has said more than once over the past few days that he is up to 210 lbs.

youre setting yourself up if you think true freshman are going to be instant impact on the d line in the SEC. thats a grown ass man position. i know they are more talented but how much of a diff do you think they really make in year 1?

Might want to take a second look at the link there Pack. It has an old weight and a new weight. Old = 193. New - 203.

And upon what facts do you base your opinion? Not being a jerk here, just wondering

I recall reading that Emmanuel Mosely had put on a bunch of weight since enrolling in January, but he's still listed at 5'11" 165 lbs. If true, that is a disturbingly low weight for somebody expected to tackle SEC runningbacks in space.

Man I dunno about you guys but I can lose 6-8lbs between bed time and the morning, and about 2 or 3 after a good piss. This stuff is cool I guess but I'd like to see updates on 40 times and/or weight room maxes, things of that nature.
