Kiffin's 2009 class was highly rated but did not ever come close to even develop into a solid class. Udder fools gold, IMO.

So kiffin is fake cow gold? Isn’t that bull ? Which is synonymous with kiffin in the VN dictionary.

So Orange Bowl starters most likely will be:

Bru, Keyton and Squirrel.

Those 3 are also probably the favorites to be starters at next seasons first game, but someone showing out in spring camp and fall camp, plus potential of transfers, can obviously change that.

Need guys like Walker, Webb and Nimrod to be ready as well. At least clemsons pass rush will be less than it was 2 days ago

O

Well damn...hope we can atleast score 30 points in the Orange Bowl.

The WR room is full of playmakers.
No worries there.
Go Vols!

 

[LA Vol]

The Orange Bowl isn't the Birmingham Bowl. It's a game between #6 and #7. It means something. Beating Clemson would mean something.

 

[SoilVol]

Incoming big games from Bru, Keyton, and Squirrel.

So from the WR room we are losing Hyatt, Tillman, Holiday, and Calloway.

Good news is we add: 4* Leacock, 4* Seldon, and 3* Spillman. Wouldn't be surprised if we add a portal WR, especially since we already know they're talking to some.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

So clear starters for Orange Bowl are now Bru, Keyton, and Squirrel (those 3 were in the top 5 for receptions on the team with Tillman/Hyatt)

We won't have Holiday or Calloway (both in portal). Walker likely is in the rotation/game and then you wonder if we see any of the other freshmen WRs Nimrod or Webb. The rest of the WR group is non scholarship guys.

In other words we'll have 6 scholarship WRs going into the game.

Couldn’t be happier for Hyatt. I was disappointed for a moment till I thought how gutted I woulda been if he was hurt in the game. Good for Jalin, go get paid!

 

[SoilVol]

Unless Tillman is still struggling from his injury he really could've helped himself in the Orange Bowl. If he were to play and have a big game it would quell a lot of concerns and raise his draft stock back up.

With Carter we jumped FL and now are in 9th on 247

It means something, but not like it used to. 75% less than the heyday of bowls.

@InVOLuntary is your great grandfather?

That would make you his great, great grandfather.

Seems like we have a lot of opt outs, which is disappointing and hurts our chances to win a big game that is somewhat important. How is Clemson looking? Is it just us dropping like flies or do they have some big time opt outs, too?

 

[NeverWe'llSever]

The Orange Bowl isn't the Birmingham Bowl. It's a game between #6 and #7. It means something. Beating Clemson would mean something.

In my time as a UT fan, it is by far the biggest bowl game I will have ever seen Tennessee play in. It is the biggest bowl game Tennessee has played in since the 2000 Fiesta Bowl against Nebraska.

Exactly the conversation I had with my daughter.

 

[Dooby15]

Defense going to be legit during the Nico years.

Rivals has us at 8, but not showing Hobbs as a 5* yet. This class can still get even better. Man, I couldn't be happier with the defensive side of our recruiting class. Been a while since we've seen this kind of talent roll in here. GBO!

Always a good day when we jump the Gators.

He can't afford to not be as healthy as he possibly can going into the combine

He's proven what he can prove on the field, he just needs to run the best 40 time possible.

 

[Big Orange#1]

Top 10 draft pick edge rusher Myles Murphy has opted out. Pretty huge

 

[RudyVol]

Wish that Hyatt could have got the 34+ yards or whatever it was to get the single season receiving yards record, but he’s making the right decision for sure.

Not sure how to feel about that one really. I don't have a strong opinion on the playoffs either way but one negative is that they made bowl games almost totally irrelevant imo.

 

[Atzar]

Wish Hyatt was playing but I get why he's not. Hope he gets his bag and balls out at the next level. His performance against Alabama is an immortal moment in Vol history.

I'll root for him wherever he ends up.

 

[tnvols72]

Clemson thinking well Hyatt is not playing and now they really dont have a threat and their DBs will feast. Then Squirrel goes on a fly route and they hype begins for next year. Clemson will not take him serious, They going to learn

Who cut the onions? I’m really gonna miss that guy
