SR AJ was a beast

SR AJ had 101 tackles, 9 TFL, 2 Sacks, 1 INT.
Banks 96 tackles, 9 TFL, 4.5 sacks, 1 INT.... That's not including this week's win against Vandy

Jeremy Banks vs AJ Johnson. Who would you rather have and why?

AJ and it’s not even close. See this for details on AJ’s performance: A.J. Johnson - Football - University of Tennessee Athletics

I remember watching AJ. Wasn't that long ago. AJs SR stats vs this year's Banks stats are very similar. Banks are actually better. We haven't gotten to this year's awards yet, so you can't compare there. They just move very similar. Banks seems a bit better in pass coverage and AJ seemed better against the run. But very similar stats

You would think that LSU's last coaching search ending with ogre would have taught their fans that making a homerun hire is far from guaranteed.

Agreed. It is extremely difficult to poach a successful head football coach from another power 5. Stoops may be their exception but he's definitely not a Riley level hire.

(Not gonna happen) but Imagine if Riley goes to LSU, Huep goes to OU and then Kiffin back to Knoxville

 

[JT3]

Thanks @Freak

 

[Paper_Towel]

I don't think Heupel leaves, but if he did, he'd instantly become the most hated man in all of Vol-dom. He'd stiff arm Kiffin, hurdle Pruitt, and claim that #1 spot all for himself. Many things would be burnt, and there would be mayhem in Knoxville. We might very well just kick off the apocalypse.

But I think he stays, and in doing so, he's basically saving the world.

He might not make it to the airport if he does that.

If AJ had not been falsely accused of a crime and made to miss part of his Sr year, the stats would not be as similar. AJ was a true leader on the team and, after sitting out three years due to legal issues, still made an NFL roster. AJ was All SEC as a junior and was estimated to be a 4th round draft choice after his Jr year. Do you expect Banks to get drafted at that level? Banks makes some good plays, but is often a liability. His temper can get the best of him at times as well. I appreciate Banks contributions, but I just don’t see him at the same level as AJ. Different opinions, but that is what Chatrooms are for.

Few things. Stats don’t tell the full story, AJ’s was in only 10 games. AJ was also on a much better defense with the likes of JRM, Maggitt and Barnett in the front 7, Randolph at safety who always sucked up a lot of tackles. in 2012 on that awful defense AJ had I think it was 145 tackles. Banks is on a bad defense playing beside Beasley so there’s a huge difference there between Banks now and AJ on that 2014 team

But I do think Banks gets too much hate and I think he’s actually really similar to AJ, I just think AJ is a little better. Banks is AJ lite

AJ. Because AJ didn’t let Offensive lineman block him.

Jeremy Banks has got to learn to get under OL blocks when they come out to him, instead of getting blocked by them and allowing the up the middle run.

Well that was weird. And it wasn’t even at a Waffle House

They don’t know how to do it properly. What can we expect…..

I’m still not sure why they even got mad at each other. I read the thread twice.

Think it started over one calling the other a Nancy

 

[Volnatic]

Oh, right. I’d forgotten about that. We all call each other much worse than that regularly on here and never resort to taking vague, blurry pictures of empty fast food parking lots next to hooker hotels, so I guess that’s why the Nancy comment didn’t resonate with me.

Didn’t even know people still got offended by that term

 

[volbeast33]

Anybody know if Hooker's injury tonight was bad? I hadn't heard anything about.

I heard on the call in show that he was fine…. Cut his hand and required a few stitches.

[NMVol]

Schiano started the season 3-0...only to end up going 2-7 the rest of the way. Lmao.

Well, it was good start.

 

[NMVol]

Are you the guy? Is that guy reading VN, seeing my post, and getting offended? Maybe get over yourself?

Irony much?

 

[JCP201]

So, they are going down the VOLS road of coaching searches? 100 percent positive that he's coming and then he doesn't.

 

[BigOrange15]

Because you took a big moment in this guy’s life and tried to make a joke, and you made a bad joke

You new to the internet or something? Come on man lol
