[Weee'rre Baaccckk]

This thread is for positing any information regarding rumors or confirms of players goin pro.

Any updates on Bray, Hunter, or CP?

 

[10ac_Vol83]

Heard Hunter is gone, Tyler not saying much and CP might be back if he is eligible

 

[Turbo5351]

I would guess most players are not saying anything until the new coaching hire. I hope they all stay so the new coach has a chance to do a quick turn around for the Vols.

I hear that bray wants to leave because dooley is gone

I find that hard to believe. This last year it became evident that Dooley and Bray did not get along well. If Bray goes pro it's not because Dooley got canned.

No Bray might stay now that Dooley is gone. I dont believe those 2 liked each other.

Couple of broken sarcasm meters ITT.

Rucker tweeted all considering about a week ago ... I remember McCullers & Jawuan James were going to gauge interest.

Not sure if this info is still current tho

How many "first rounders" made the 1st team sec?

 

[Dool-Aid]

Bray won't leave. He doesn't have enough pro stock yet.

 

[Pro]

Someone rang?

Thats cause he knows the next coach will most likely bust his balls for some of the things that Dooley would let him get away with .

 

[rocktopper16]

Motrilla gonna be back

 

[RockyTopForMe]

Can't see McCullers going pro, he couldn't make it a full series this year...

 

[Rudy123]

Bray won't leave. He doesn't have enough pro stock yet.

Bray threw for 3,612 yards this season and if Hunter, CP, are gone, then he will have lost 99% of his targets, being Rogers, rivera, Hunter, CP.

IF they all leave, then I doudt he will get the 3,612 yards again next season. Thus, next season will be a drop off for him and his NFL stock will fall.

If C.P. returns, then he and Bray need to work ALOT together this summer......

So his targets will be Downs, Crooms, Pig, Drae and Dallas....

Got here in August and you're allowed to start "official" threads?

CP = gone
That is all

James is staying. Cody Pope asked him about it, and James said he was staying.

If you can only make the 2nd team in the SEC then your draft stock isn't going to look too good going against the other guys in the entire country.

CP needs lots of work as a WR, needs to learn how to run routes, read the D and learn the playbook.

Bray needs to grow up and learn how to become a real leader, learn to read the D alot better to do proper checkoffs at the line and needs to work on better consistency on shorter, ball control routes.

Hunter needs to work hard to get past his mental fear situation, drop less easy passes and prove he can get more YAC instead of falling down whenever a D guy is within 10 yards of him.

We'll all know soon after a new HC is hired what all our juniors will do about the NFL and how many other players we'll lose that will transfer out to get a fresh start elsewhere.

VFL...GBO!!!

Oi vey. Personally, I think the "big 3" are all gone...the question mark is Bray. Depending on the new coach and what Bray's final draft grade is prior to having to announce his intent to enter, I think he's probably gone. Hunter and CP received 1st round grades from Kiper recently. Unless something really changes, they'd be silly not to move on...first round money doesn't stay around forever (and an injury could derail them from ever making a dime). As much as I wish they'd all stay, it's likely in these boys' financial best interest to declare.

 

[vflgolfer]

Bray is in one of my classes and he has not been there for the last couple of lectures. If he is not there for the final, which I expect him not to be, then we will know he is 100% gone.

Not a bray hater, but i do think we are better off without him.ifwe played in the big 12 it would be different. we need to be more run oriented to compete in the sec

We do need a run game...like saban said about the game with goergia, who ever runs the ball better will win! And he is right IMO

He will have an elite OL and some very talented WRs to throw to. I think Bray, especially with the right coaching, could match or improve those numbers if he came back next year.

Also, I think Pig Howard will end up being very special.

There was a lot of pro talent on our offense. But right now they are not great pro prospects. There are some good players around the country with out the down sides of our stellar players.
