Cullen and Underwood are the two I knew about. Thanks for the rundown on the others, Vader.

Here's a rundown of 5 that I know of:

Chuckie Curry- 6-6, 310, runs a 4.8. very impressive offer list (UT, Bama, Ole Miss, etc.). UT has offered and he says the Vols are his leader. will enroll in January. I want Curry the most out of all these guys...

John Cullen- 6-6, 285, runs a 4.9. UT has offered and is his #2, trailing Utah for his services. will enroll in January...

Demarkus Underwood- 6-5, 310. teammate of John Brown. UT has not offered yet. loves UT. he is a Vol lock if we want him. will enroll in January...

Charles Wiley- 6-6, 305, runs a 5.1. played at Knox Fulton. "bleeds Orange and White". he had a UT offer on the table if could graduate this past spring. he is a Vol lock if we want him. “I wouldn’t even have to breathe before I commit to them,” laughed Wiley. “Getting an offer from UT would be a dream come true.” will enroll in January.

Roszell Gayden- on Scout, he is the highest rated of all these guys. UT has not offered yet but is recruiting him. he's interested but I dunno if UT would be his favorite if offered. will enroll in January...

There are some more JUCO guys that we should be hearing from very shortly. The best thing about these JUCO OL is that they are all planning to start school in January. Practicing with the team in the Spring is a huge plus...

6'6 310 and runs a 4.8? Really?? I would bet there are fewer than 5 people that weigh 310 and have ran a legitimate 4.8 flat IN THE HISTORY OF TIME. I doubt this kid is one of them.

I'm allowing for a few NFL DT's (EVER)and possibly a few Eastern European Discuss throwers. Certainly no OL from the NFL combine has done it.

When kids say something like this it makes me think they are really 6'3 instead of 6'6 and when someone quotes it like it's a fact it makes one believe he has no idea either.

Check out past combine results.

I'm not for sure about that. It's just my guess. Alot of people are saying we will still take 5 more...

Joe Paluka, I'm not sure Curry runs a 4.8, but I honestly could care less. He's got a good offer list so there is something these teams see in him...

He may be a great player and he may be damn fast for his size which would be a legit 5.25. I'm just sick of all of these H.S. OL's that say they run 4.9's when there is typicall 0 OL's at the NFL combine that run sub 5.0's. And these guys are 22-23 year old highly trained MEN.

Yeah, I know of two JuCo OL we are seriously looking at and that's it. Wouldn't surprise me if there were others.

Would not surprise me if there are not more. One of the easiest sells is a proven commodity. You show these "playmakers" the protection they will have and they will line up to play. I love the fact that CLK and staff want to win now. I had a gut feeling this staff will do something special, but I sold them short. These guys are awesome.

Everybody uses exagerrated/hand-timed 40's for recruiting. It's no big surprise.
