Tennessee Drill

Here's a link to the page

Yeah, I was talking in another thread about how McClendon was a beast in the weight room benching 525 and squatting 600.

That was a fun video. Good to see our guy being physical and fired up. :rock:

Looks like Cutcliffe may be having an affect on the Offense. The offensive players won the drill a good majority of the time and showed alot more enthusiasm than last year.

I think almost everyone looked good and was playing hard. McClendon never went up against one of the better DLmen though.

Dan Williams, IMO, looked very very solid.

It's probably just me that's fired up but our guys look intense and hungry to me.

Maybe this is very common, but I love the energy from the coaches after each battle. Taylor may never be a HC or an OC, nor do I think he has the stuff for it. However, it would behoove Tennessee to keep him around for a lot of reasons.

He was going against Chase Nelson and Hostetler, but yeah, he looked solid.

We have 12 kids on the sideline that do the same thing TT does on a field. Once he shows results on the field I will apologize for that. He was RB coach and how many games were lost because of fumbles? When the WR can actually catch this year, and YAC does not equal zero, I might be impressed. They could pay me $200K to chest bump and I would draw rave reviews too.

I wasn't even referring to your or your statement. I personally don't believe TT to be HC material. I do believe he is a good influence on these kids and has great energy on a staff that has lacked it.

Last year the Tennessee drill was mostly freshmen vs freshmen to size up the incoming class.

:crazy: ....yea umm his first year on the job he had two 1,000 yard rushers. He motivated Riggs and got him to play to his potential when no one else could. Then in 05 the player that he coaches- Arian Foster is the only bright spot on offense. Still certain people will focus on those two fumbles as a reason that he is not a great coach, but if Meachem had blocked his man instead of watching the play Cory Anderson would've never fumbled. Besides, the rest of the coaching staff shouldn't have put us in a position that one fumble should decide the outcome of a game anyway. Then add to that he is the best recruiter on our staff and the players love him. I'd say he is doing a hell of a job so far. Texas and Georgia seem to think so as well seeing as they have both tried to hire him. As far as the chest bumping goes..seriously who cares?? Pete Carrol throws the football around before games and plays pranks on his players. Their staff is full of young energetic coaches who highfive chest bump, etc etc and they have best program in the country. Some people are going to feel really stupid talking about his chest bumping when Meachem has a breakout season and the WRs finally perform up to par.

That video, along with Cutcliffe's affinity to man-block, makes me very optimistic about 2006.

Like the tone. Coaches giving the players room to play hard. They are definately giving it their all in that clip. That effort in game will have positive results.
