And he took a **** on KSU


Anyways, he’s ran for 1300 yards both seasons. He’d be the best RB on our roster, shouldn’t even be up for debate at this point.

All I said was “I hope we go after him” and then I get the Lewis fanboys come out of the wood work. (Not you)

Let’s even see if we go after him.

I forgot he played another SEC opponent. He had 19 carries for a 3.7 ypc average against Oklahoma. That was with their starting QB.

He might be the best RB on our roster next year if he came to Tennessee. But it absolutely can be debated. At least until he does something against the kind of competition he’d face at Tennessee that removes any doubt. To this point, he’s whiffed on those opportunities.

Portal guys who are productive at mid majors don’t automatically translate when they move to the SEC. We’ve seen that many times. But maybe he would/will.

Ohhhhhhh we’ve contacted another RB, not sure how serious though

Just saw it on Twitter.

The Penn RB, Malachi something

Malachi Hosley?

If this is him, then I can see why we're talking to the kid.

 

[SagginVawls]

Lewis will be good. Came in a lot in short yardage situations for some reason. With more coaching and experience I think he will be a solid option. Still need another spot in the room though. Better competition, rising tide raises all boats.

 

[Ned Ray McWorkher]

A top shelf Safety wouldnt hurt either.

We need a couple of top shelf safeties honestly...

 

[Ned Ray McWorkher]

Nobody on here truly knows what we need. It’s all speculation.

We all can see the games being played and that we need actual SEC starting safeties.

I find it interesting that we’re going after smaller backs

Mahdi and this kid both smaller than what we lost.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Not sure how interested we are.

Already visited VT, GT, and Cincy

Wish we could find a player with moves like a Percy Harvin/Tyreek Hill/Peter Warrick type. Somebody extremely dynamic.

Staley is apparently really fast

I think Jourdan Thomas will be one of the starting safeties next year. People forget about him because he was out all year, but he should be good. I also think Jakobe Thomas will be a good one next year. But I halfway agree with you…I’d take one good safety from the portal, if we identify one.

 

[bigorangekicksazz]

But we don’t

Yes, I was referring to why the WR pick Georgia. Makes no sense.

 

[Ashevolle]

Let's go SMU, Clemson, and Vols

Those Tyreek Hill type guys are a dime a dozen.

I hope you puked after saying you're pulling for Clemson.

For those of you that are NOT star gazers :

"of the 11 UT players in the portal, all but one was a 3* or less", Leacock being the 4*

but don't let that change your minds

 

[Ashevolle]

?????

Texas is legit. I want them out of our path. Clemson, we can handle.

About what?

Also, Cam Seldon was a consensus 4*.

 

[Adam Sandler]

Are we getting Travis Shaw or nah? @KingVFL

I just can’t root for Clemson.

Nope. They are about as arrogant as OSU fans.
