One game does not determine anything. Dude is out of shape. He won't be in a couple of weeks. The talent is there which is why he's so heavily recruited and projected as a first round talent.
He is a fricking kid .. come on... you had it all figured out at 17 im sure .. give me a break .. these non UT fans need to get off here trying to make the kid or his family think you are TN fans .. the kid is a fantastic talent . We need him bad !!!I'm trying to imagine a scenario in which I enter the season out of shape if I'm the #1 DT recruit in the country. If I want to be a first rounder, I need to eat, sleep, and breath football and treat it like a job. It is just very odd to me that we're not allowed to call that a red flag.
If the goal is to be a first rounder, what better way to show you're serious about it than by showing up overweight and out of shape. I was 17 and was nowhere near good enough with the measurables required to play D1 ball, so what I would've done in that situation is pretty irrelevant. The question is, does Nolen do all the things that the 17% of 5* recruits do to become a first rounder? I'm betting they don't show up on a make or break year overweight and unable to play 4 consecutive plays without laying down in the field of play.He is a fricking kid .. come on... you had it all figured out at 17 im sure .. give me a break .. these non UT fans need to get off here trying to make the kid or his family think you are TN fans .. the kid is a fantastic talent .
