What players come to mind making a position change in college or pro that saw a big jump in production?

Jonathan Wade is one of the few for me.

Little and wilson would be the first two that come to mind. We also had a number of more successful RB turn LB under Fulmer. Then there were plenty of DL turn Ol that turned out very well too

Tim Jordan is the only member of this team I've been able to meet and the only one other than JJ that I KNOW actually cares.

I'll never try to pretend he's as good as Chandler or Gray but he damn sure has never done a single thing to hurt the team. And that includes Saturday. Especially since he's now being used for short gains. Not bad for a kid that wasn't born with the natural talent of the others and most like that would never earn their way to the field.

He's been nothing but a true VFL since the day he arrived. Folks always talking a big game about the kids with stars are great but give me the guy that wants to be here". What a bunch of bulls***.

Kid had his absolute best runs against Alabama, still fighting like crazy for extra yards, long after teammates had mentally left the game.
I think the little cheap shots many here keep taking for no reason, is about one of lowest things I've seen on VN and frankly, one of the few things here that ever embarrassed me.

I believe the former is probably true but I also believe Anderson pushed for Pruitt.

It might have been a scenario where he pushed for both and that’s why they were both in the final three. Neither of those guys were on anyone else’s radar so it makes some sense. Ultimately Phil had the final call and I believe Davenport had some say as well.

Pruitt also interviewed for the Mississippi St job a few weeks before Fulmer interviewed him, but Pruitt lost out to the Penn St OC for the MSU job. I was kinda thinking this would give Pruitt a little extra incentive when we play MSU this year.
