Players you are excited to see play

[Vol_guy]

Obviously everyone will say Nico and that is a given. Who else are you excited to see play this year?

For me:

TE Miles Kitselman
WR Brazzell and Matthews
RB Peyton Lewis

DT Jaxson Moi
DB Boo Carter
LB Really excited to see the combo of Keenan Pili & Arion Carter

 

[VOLLeeann]

Boo

 

[Vol_guy]

I love all of our players and really believe this is the most talented team we have seen in the last 20 years.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

Brazzell on offense and Arion Carter on Defense. Additionally, I am really looking forward to see what Seldon can do once he is healthy.

 

[Vol524]

Of course, Nico. But, I think Boo Carter is going to be something special on Rocky Top!
That young man is a BALLER! I just hope they use him to his fullest potential.

 

[GoBigOrange_2309]

I’m anxious about the corners. I think Gibson and McCoy can be a really good duo

Those are great...I'll add Jermod McCoy and Rickey Gibson at CB. I think they are the athletic, talented CB pair we've been missing for a long time.

Pili. He was greatly missed last year.

 

[AllThingsTN]

Man I started to make a list but I was going to end up naming nearly everyone on the roster.

 

[Hulavol]

Im excited to see the big fella at center …. And the big fella at defensive end… and the big fella toting the rock.

Don't forget about Jeremiah Telander

Bru McCoy, Boo Carter, Jeremiah Telander, Jordan Ross, Edwin Spillman

Same. We need some lockdown corners. Wish we had a Deon Grant style safety as well.

Some will say we have a great Deon Grant type at safety.

That's a pretty good selection, I'd say.

Chas Nimrod. They can't quit gushing about him over on VQ

Seldon, Carter, Boo, Pili, Nico, Bru, Matthews, p Lewis, Staley, Big O, Telander, Jenkins, Mays, Heard, Campbell, Brazzell, White, Thornton. . . the list goes on and on and on. We are absolutely loaded at basically every position.

 

[Lefteye]

You got mine by 18 minutes. Best hands on the team last year. imo

 

[WillisWG]

 

[volunator]

Any or all, just ready to get this party started.

 

[perico]

Lance Heard

Thorton healthy and playing to his potential

He’s maybe the best story of fall camp thus far. Nimrod is entering his third season with the program and was forced into action due to injuries as a redshirt freshman last fall. He had some moments, including a nice touchdown reception down the sideline against Kentucky, but that didn’t stop the coaching staff from going to the transfer portal for another play-making option this past winter (Chris Brazzell).

All Nimrod has done is work, however. He’s transformed his body and put on some good weight. The wideout looks bigger and is playing with more physicality. He’s explosive off the line of scrimmage and has been making some nice catches throughout fall camp. Nimrod is a solid depth piece on the inside behind Squirrel Whiteand has already shown the ability to play on the outside in games.

Nimrod will play this fall, but with a good showing in Friday’s scrimmage, maybe that solidifies himself as the first wideout off the bench? If anything, making some plays will continue his positive momentum, because he’s been good. Tennessee will also likely be without a couple of wide receivers in the scrimmage, so Nimrod should get plenty of chances through the air.

[snappervol]

#7 and #10 for me. Arion Carter and Mike Mathews (I anticipate him getting some snaps this season). Carter will be a terror for whoever has possession.
