Rod Wilks (UT recruit)

I saw this guy play.

Better than 50% chance he could start at receiver and kickoff/punt returner next year IMO.

Not likely. And they have said the same thing for the last 8 months about Kenny O'Neil.

He'd fit right in he's droped 2 td passes in as many weeks.

Rod returned a punt 46 yards to the house last night in a win against Oakland.

SEC > Murfreesboro Oakland High School

Really? Get outta' here. I had no idea there was a difference.

I've seen Rod play almost every game of his high school career, and I can safely say he's the real deal. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see him start at punt returner next year, and get a little bit of playing time at WR. He is physically ready for the SEC right now.

He looked terrible against Blackman. 5 dropped passes.

He was amazing against Gallatin. Granted this is the worst team Gallatin has fielded in probably 40 years or more, but I was still very impressed. He's got good speed, good hands, and was very physical against our db's.

It is very doubtful he will be playing as a true freshman. Also, I bet he ends up at Safety and turns into a better safety than he ever would have at WR.

I agree, he won't see much,if any, time at WR

 

[volfan2024]

Time will tell.I personally think he has a shot at about any position he is playing in high school.I have seen him play a lot over the last the years.

careful when you bump "THE" Mr Wilks.

The DIVINE ROD must approve of this. The server has not crashed yet.

Damn good call.

This thread deserves a sticky...























































If that's ok with Mr. Wilks, of course.
