"I saw where one of your (scouting friends) was touting Lousaka Polite from Pitt as his sleeper, late-round fullback. Good call. I can't disagree with that. But the player we like at the position is Troy Fleming (of Tennessee). You might like him to be a little bit bigger, but he's got enough size, and he's got tools. He kind of reminds me of (former Vols back) Shawn Bryson in some ways, like a 'tweener' guy, but he is probably better suited than was Bryson to play the NFL fullback style. He doesn't mind blocking and it looks like he catches the ball well. And he seems, just from talking to him, to be a motivated kid. The kind of kid who, you know, will do whatever it takes to get a roster spot."

Apparently some of the scouts are pretty impressed with Fleming.
