'19 TN DT Elijah Simmons (Tennessee signee)

[swchandler1988]

And Middleton

At 6’7 290-300, wouldn’t Middleton be a DE?

 

[Catbone]

Every single position should be bigger and stronger this year. Now we gotta coach em up

 

[KeyVol14]

In the 3-4 scheme the defensive ends go anywhere 290-310 range

Not sure. I guess I have been used to 260lb DE

 

[BigorangeBoy]

Only have Simmons and Cox committed. I would think they’re still going after Savion Williams and/or Kristian Williams.

What about the other DT from Nashville? Lester Mcclain's nephew?

 

[SoMissVol]

Well one of the silents is so silent anymore...... stay tuned.

And it ain’t this guy?

Wasn’t there mention the other day of an impending mutual parting of was with Cox? So this kid plus Williams and Williams? And of course Middleton.

Mitchell too?

I remember reading that about Cox but hadn’t heard anything else about it. I think i would prefer Williams/Williams/Simmons

 

[Bauce]

How many spots do we have left?

 

[swchandler1988]

How many spots do we have left?

11 i think. We have 14 committed at the moment

Wright, Bogle, Crouch, Knox, Fields...then some combo of those 4-5 DBs. Filling up fast

 

[KeyVol14]

How many spots do we have left?

Total? About 6-8 I would assume

 

[Dooby15]

Can’t wait to see this guy in the circle of life

 

[Nashvegas31]

Our recruiting class looks bigger than our seniors

 

[Caleb59seal]

How many spots do we have left?

A lot less than people think

 

[Mightyvol]

Ka-boom!!!!!

 

[Jester7968]

Zionwho?

 

[volfanCLT]

Simmons will probably play at a lighter weight than he is now. Still a big boy.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Zionwho?

Logue. Committed to GA.

Lose 20 lbs of fat, put on 20 lbs of muscle just leave him be

But seriously, that would be awesome. Losing that much fat and adding even 10 lbs of muscle would be awesome considering he benches 410lb as a HS junior

I’m really curious about that myself , you would assume that to be true but he moves that 350 ponds around really well . The kid runs track or ran a leg in track that’s amazing . So I’m looking forward to seeing at what weight he ends up playing at

I’m thinking he’ll take the Payne from Alabama trajectory.

I think he came in at about 335 and they got him down to 310-315 playing weight.

6’1 330 and strong as an ox sounds good to me
