Did he play against OSU? I don’t remember his name be mentioned at all. Maybe I just missed it. Did he have any sacks or hurries?
He's not just a one dimensional DE/OLB. He had some great, gap shooting tackles this past year. It would be awesome to have him another year, but that's a selfish desire of fans. I can't see him doing it. He would be taking a chance staying for another year. His best bet is to go to the NFL right now.

Lol. He's not coming back. He hasn't publicly declared because it's a forgone conclusion he's a top 20 pick.
Wouldn't say it's a guarantee. Many NFL experts consider him small for his position and isn't very twitchy. He didn't help his cause this year. Was a top 3 pick coming into the season, but stock has dropped. Guess we will see. He's one of my favorite players and would love to see him in Denver or Atlanta.

He kinda is. He doesn't several things good, but nothing great. His stock dropped this year compared to before the season started. I wish him well either way

Just heard so much hype about him and never really saw him dominate in big games. Seemed invisible against OSU.

Any "NFL Expert" that doesn't think Pearce is "twitchy" is unqualified to do whatever job they do.

Heard so much? Didn't watch many of the games?

I heard the announcers talk a ton about him but it just seemed like every game he was hyped to be this sack machine and it didn’t happen. I’m not saying he isn’t a great player. Just didn’t seem to have a major effect in big games. I could be wrong. Just seemed our DTs caused more qb hurries than the DE.

That’s my guess. I don’t remember seeing much social media stuff from him posted on here. Seems like a low key guy that doesn’t need all the constant attention like so many others do these days.
Good point. Players in the 70s, 80s, and 90s didn’t want constant attention…

Probably not a popular opinion, and definitely goes against my selfish wishes…..but……


James, thank you for giving your all! You’re a VFL. You represented well. Now go get paid for real and excel at the highest level of the sport. Go try your hand at etching your name in NFL history. And good luck to you! Go Vols!
