'20 TN DE/LB Tyler Baron (UT SIGNEE)

[VolzMan53]

You can't make an omelet without breaking some eggs.

It is impossible to achieve something important without there being some bad effects.

Idk why some people are acting like this isn’t a big loss. It certainly does NOT help.

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

He have a great end to his career at Georgia Tech.

He didn’t set the world on fire. It’s a loss but let’s not make this out to be an AA type loss

Nolan = Baron

“Heupel didn't fire Abernathy. That departure had to do with actions done with the previous staff” -Hubbs

When did he depart? My guy said he was over there during the season.

During the bye week.

It is a big loss…this guy primed for big production next year

For the record…. Tyler Barons dad’s resume sucked…. Shouldn’t of even of been our Director of Player Development….

Whoever we get to fill that role now is more than likely going to be Extremely more qualified

No he wasn’t. He probably wasn’t even going to see the field as a starter. He is too slow.

He was hired by Butch to get Derek Barnett.

“Heupel didn't fire Abernathy. That departure had to do with actions done with the previous staff” -Hubbs

That is technically true, however, he was on staff with this staff until late in the season, Then the departure happened. Heupel technically did not fire him, though, as it all stemmed back to the previous improprieties. He made it until the first of November, so that was hard to overcome.

I love how people just think that’s so easy to do. If it’s so easy, then why haven’t we just loaded up on these better players?

That seems to always be the assumption. Nothing wrong with being optimistic, but outside of Hooker, the portal thus far has taken much more than it's given.

This year - we'll need to merely match Evans and Baron just to break even. Maybe we do. Let's hope we do, because those positions need a LOT of help.

Don’t forget about Payton and Jones. But I get your point. I just don’t think the portal is gonna be this quick fix things that some think.

 

[wrangler]

This is most definitely a loss but fortunately not a "big" loss and can be filled with present/future projects for Garner.

Didn’t contribute much down the stretch because of his attitude and work ethic. I get it with everything that happened with his dad but there was never good chemistry between this staff, Baron and his dad. Not going to rip the kid. I’ll leave it at that.

-Bob_Vols

If true, will take dusting out those that mess with our present culture and locker room direction.

A lot of people underestimate the importance of these factors. I remember when Ditka took over the Bears that he steered the organization towards acquiring players with the right attitude, as a primary consideration. A few years later, they won the Super Bowl.

Or more of the same…or less depending on who we may bring in.

Tremblay/Terry were a clear upgrade over Emerson/Middleton and kept Solomon irrelevant.

You don’t know what you’re talking about, do you?

 

[butchna]

You don’t know what you’re talking about, do you?

I agree with him…so I’m hoping he does.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

You don’t know what you’re talking about, do you?

Nope…. Just like I never said Tillman would be a stud…. Or that Dayne Davis was a great pickup for us as a PWO when it happened…. Never know what I’m talking about…..

 

[butchna]

Nope…. Just like I never said Tillman would be a stud…. Never know what I’m talking about…..

Always got that one!

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

Always got that one!

Lol boy was I lucky with that guess, glad we finally got a coach in that knows how to run an offense though

 

[butchna]

Lol boy was I lucky with that guess

Better to be lucky than good imo.

He was “primed” since he arrived. Ain’t happened yet

Lame and if he goes to Ky then F Him
