lol at "crunk"

Really interested to see how the running game is working out this year. We need to be at least 6th or better in the SEC to take the pressure off the new QB and give the D time to rest.

 

[gardners_51609]

The article said, that Jason Carr was "bigger"- I wonder in what context?

 

[SpringBokVol]

Defense needs to get right quick. I can't be any worse than last year though.

 

[Vols188]

What a surprise

 

[TnTech_Vol]

I may need some clarification, but on Offense vs Defense wouldn't the offense always win since O's job is to score and D's job is to stop. How does the D score points is my question? And confusion.

It looks like the D will be in white a lot this spring trying to beat the big OL.

when they use this kind of format the D will get points for forcing a punt, getting a 3 and out, sacks, and turnovers. You will see this scoring format for alot of spring games.

He preached family and he meant it. David Ricky will be around for Pro-day and Tyler Bray was at practice to watch and throw a few balls with old teammates. Coach Jones is the truth.

We talkin' bout practice. We ain't talkin' bout the game.

 

[OrangeBlood4life]

After last year, I would be just a tad worried if the defense won lol. But we will be in better shape with new staff

 

[orange parmejohn]

pretty cool as VF4L just stated that Bray was there and DaRick coming for pro day. Its no coincidence that former players are coming, touted recruits are coming, and committing early. UT is buzzing.

From what I saw on VQ videos (limited examples) the O-line was dominating and the D-Line had a lot of trouble shedding 1-on-1 blocks. Danny O'Brien had a nice shed and tackle though which was nice to see.

Bump, if anyone can answer please.:hi:

 

[NMVol]

The O-line looked strong in the drills on video. Gotta be a good thing. Seems like in years past the D was presumed to have the advantage in early practices.

Not a surprise that our defense lost. They usually did last year as well. No guarantee that the same players will be any better this year either.

 

[Catbone]

I'm super worried about our defense.

I'm fairly certain it was Bill Bates who spent extra time in town...Todd Kelly lives in Knoxville.
