'18 SC WR Bryce Thompson (UT commit 5/30/18)

[Chief Vol 13]

Y’all acting like we just signed Ted Ginn Jr. I don’t know how good he is but something tells me many itt need to pump the breaks

That's typical of a lot of these posters on here. Simply because he commits to Tennessee the player is automatically a future Hall of Famer in their minds. We'll see how it goes.

Big time pickup...this kid reminds me of that WR USCe had a couple of years ago that absolutely tore us up...I’m drawing a blank on his name though

Cooper, receivers with that name tend to have career days against us.....

 

[Glitch]

i'm gonna go out on a limb and say that this staff did the homework.

"I don't like that our coaches are doing this kid's homework for him. Shows bad judgement on the coaches and probably indicates the kid is lazy. Probably doesn't have a workout partner either. Don't want."

- Bruin (probably)

Some gems from the SC rivals board in the thread where the news of Thompson to UT was shared...

So beautiful. Thanks for posting this. Made my day.

Looks like he will be starting his career off as a WR here, according to his twitter .

 

[bignewt]

Good that is where he needs to be.

Letting them keep Taylor at CB to refine his craft.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

The catch in traffic at the 55 sec mark is real nice.

From watching that, Ricky Person has a little AK in his game. Not an outright burner, but quick with great balance and very shifty.

Was about to mention him. I was like, “Who is THIS guy?” Want, want, want. It’s NC State, so we might have a shot.

I think Taylor will end up special wherever he ends up..

A few of you guys insist he counts toward the 19 class. But I keep reading these stories referring to him in the 18 class. What gives? Is he 18 or 19?

Playing in 18 but counts forward to 19

He’s a blue shirt. So he counts forward. ‘19 class.

Hmmm didn't see anyone say future HOF. Once again you're on here spewing your garbage.

Thompson by a good deal. Muschamp thinks he could be an elite corner which tells me all I need to know. Thompson and AT might be our starting corners at some point

I would not be against this...

Need playmakes outside the hashes too

 

[85SugarVol]

PLay Bryce & Alontae both at Corner

 

[griddie]

I like him at RB

 

[Blake25p]

Looks like Kamara with the ball in his hands.

USC wanted him at RB at first. Then he started showing out at camps wherever they stuck him. Very versatile guy.

Bro Sham isnt going anywhere

Every time there’s debate about whether a guy should play corner, I always say put him a corner. This one is no different. Good corners are better for a team than good receivers. It’s MUCH easier to hide a weakness at receiver than it is at corner. All the great defenses have great corners. Not all the great offenses have great receivers. And of course... defense does win championships

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

This guy is too good with the ball to stick on defense in my opinion, unless therev is just no other good option at CB and he is the best. This cat is explosive.

Lol

But does he fit Pruitt’s profile? Obviously Taylor does, but he starts a lot heavier.
