'24 TN WR Amari Jefferson (Tennessee)

[WebbCobb]

Mickey Mantle struck out 1,710 times in his career with the Yankees. And your point is?

I think he was just showing some pride in his son. Nice to see and understandable.

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Oh, I thought you were hating on Jefferson. My bad & congrats to your son,

That’s how I interpreted it also.

Translation is lost in text a lot.

 

[WebbCobb]

Oregon was also the #1 team in the country and undefeated so us scoring less than they did isn't a knock on us.

Also, theirs was a neutral site game

I can’t believe Matthews decided to stay after all. This slander is outrageous.

Watch, Mike will enter the spring portal all because we thought he was Tate.

As little as he was played by this staff, I'm surprised he's not on a milk carton. Hardly a surprise fans wouldn't recognize him.

Thank you for clarifying. I spoke with Amari after that game and told him what a fantastic player he was and hoped he changed his mind and become a Vol. Will be cheering him on. He’s really a fine young man.

It’s a red flag that 9 WRs recorded stats for Alabama this year and Jefferson wasn’t one of them.

No it’s not

Regarding Jefferson, I think he probably would've played some garbage time in cupcake games later in the season (i.e., Mercer) if he hadn't had the hip surgery after the Vandy game. So the hip issue (which is fine now...he will participate in Spring), combined with a loaded WR room is the reason he didn't play. It's not because he's not talented.

Heupel and Saban both wanted him badly. He showed out among other top recruits in the UA All American Game. He's talented. If Tennessee gets him, that's a great pick-up.

Yep, totally agree... at this point we need to grab any WR with talent we can...

 

[volKano]

Bama has been stacking receivers so its understandable a freshman would normally redshirt.

 

[marcusluvsvols]

Numerous people also think Alabama, South Carolina, and Ole Miss, Miami belonged in the CFP
Numerous people also think Indiana and SMU did not belong in the CFP
Numerous people think the seeding was totally screwed with the byes.
Numerous people think the Committee was B10 bias.

The selection process has and always will need fixing as long as there is a committee. The NCAA is to blame.

Pretty damning that all 4 conference champs that got a 1st round bye LOST their 1st game...including #1 Oregon and SEC champ UGA. Those stupid rules will be gone next season...but it doesn't unscrew us out of our home playoff game vs ASU etc. Luckily as UT fans we are used to being screwed in bowlgames and such so we won't complain too much about how ridiculous the seeding was.

Bama and SCjr both losing their bowlgames to teams they were favored to beat means we dont have to listen to them yap anymore about being left out at least.

HMMMM….. agenda based posting has it’s risk now doesn’t it?

Is it a red flag that Braylon Staley didn’t play? I mean come on. They’re both redshirt freshmen and have 4 years to play. Idk why everybody is in such a rush to say no to such a talented kid

1. Staley did play. But yes, I would like to know why he didn’t play more.
2. I didn’t say “no”. I said it’s a red flag.
3. Within a couple minutes of my post someone explained that it may have been due to a hip surgery over the summer.

If you and your buddies want to only look on the bright side of everything, that’s cool by me. But when a kid doesn’t play at all it’s 100% fair to question why.

 

[bpalmer28]

its. red flag that Deboer wants his own guys?

Yeah he should throw Ryan Williams to the curb

 

[Jackcrevol]

Yeah he should throw Ryan Williams to the curb

That's illegal, Ryan is only 17.

 

[bpalmer28]

Staley only caught 3 for us and Matthews only had 7 and Bama’s WR room was significantly more talented than ours. If Nick Saban wants you chances are you can play. He just needs some work, the size and athleticism are definitely there though

I hope we get him. Should at least provide some depth.

 

[bpalmer28]

I had no idea!

I agree with you but asking Pope to mold any receiver is just scary. Guy is garbage.

No it’s not

Prove that it’s not

Amari Jefferson is a player.

 

[bpalmer28]

He redshirted and then had surgery sometime after Alabama played Vanderbilt.

He earned scout team player of the week the week after the Vanderbilt game so it must have been after that

 

[bpalmer28]

Amari Jefferson is a player.

I really do hope we get him. It hurts my feelings that many who I thought were my friends have accused me of having an agenda.

 

[NighthawkVol]

Prove that it’s not

You can't prove or disprove an opinion. You think it is. Fine. I don't.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Prove that it’s not

He red shirted. You do realize that not every single FR player plays right? You trying to equate him not playing to some kind of mythical red flag is silly. The guy has talent. Look at the team he was on. Good grief.
