sorry if i've missed it somewhere -- but is there a list going around of the penciled-in visitors for this weekend?

Last I saw, BJ Edwards and Chandler Jackson (PG from Memphis) were going to be here. And I've seen tons of names for football visitors, but I've not seen anything that has the names put together in one spot.

What I’ve heard from Heupel in the last week –

Evans could have gone back into the game against South Carolina.

We’ll have everybody back this week with the exception of Mitchell.

Evans has been getting more work in practice as the week has gone on.

SECstats defines explosive run plays as 10 yards plus. 21.92% of Evans 73 runs are considered explosive, 20% of Whitehead’s 25 runs are considered explosive, 15.91% of Small’s 44 runs are classified as explosive, 16.67% of Hooker’s runs, including sacks, are deemed explosive.

Evans leads the running backs in broken tackles percentage at 42.47%, Small is at 22.73%, and Whitehead is at 32%. Hooker is at 51.52%.

Whitehead is the only running back right now with no negative yardage plays, Small has 1, and Evans has 4. For runs of 20+ yards, Evans is at 4.11% of his carries, Small is at 2.27%, Whitehead is at 4.00%, and Hooker is at 4.55% of his runs.

I suspect Evans if he doesn’t play won’t be because he can’t play. I suspect Heupel is just managing our roster to put us in the best position to compete going forward through the season. The thought occurs to me that we want Evans at 100% and hungry as hell going into Alabama.

I said after the Florida-Alabama game that I didn’t think Alabama was up to its usual standard this year, especially on defense. Last week Texas A&M matched their season high offensive output of 41 points against Alabama to win the game. The only other game they mustered that many points was against Kent State to open the season. In that game they hand King at QB. They were 3-2 when Bambi showed up in College Station. Texas A&M’s offense, both total and scoring, after their performance against Bambi, improved to 84th best in the nation.

In commenting about the A&M-Bambi game early last week I said the only advantage I thought A&M had was they’d be at home. Well, this week we’ll be at home but that won’t be our only advantage. It does however need to be an unbelievably overwhelming advantage. Last week A&M fans affected the outcome of their game; we will do the same this week, only more so.

We jumped out to a 35-0 lead on South Carolina last week and then sort of mailed it in from there. A couple weeks ago Alabama jumped out to a 35-0 lead on Ole Miss and finished the game off with a 4th quarter TD.

I watched Pittman’s Monday presser yesterday and he pointed out the same things I did in earlier comments that led to their loss to Ole Miss, missed a ton of tackles and busted coverages galore.

We’re having to manage a bunch of guys with bumps, bruises, strains, sprains, aches, and pains. There’s still a lot of football left to play this year. If Evans is dressed and on the sideline then obviously he’s an option this week, if not then no.

After the game last week, Jaylen McCollough was asked about his interception in the endzone, the play which according to Shane Beamer was the most critical play in the game and could potentially imperil South Carolina’s College Football Playoff hopes. Jaylen revealed that he’s been playing with a cast on his hand and that has cause him to have extra focus on catching the ball. It was his 3rd on the year and is 2nd most in the SEC. He said he has to squeeze the ball more when trying to make the catch. Velus Jones was sitting next to him. Velus said, "don’t take it off. You need to keep it on. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it."

We're inside the 48-hour preparation window before kickoff. No time for whining. Get locked in. #GBO

@frank - can we get this man some media credentials? He can be the voice of VolNation.

Thanks for the content you produce @ChattaTNVol

Ok serious questions. The lady i hit earlier had been in an accident recently and her back end was already messed up. She said the only thing that I messed up is her back up camera and there’s some rattling now that wasn’t before. We haven’t reported to insurance yet. Here’s the kicker, I also rear ended someone at the start of this year so I could get dropped from insurance for two accidents in a year. I asked if she was willing to negotiate on a price where we don’t report to insurance and she is willing. So what do I do?

Stop rear ending people?
