I just looked up the pic of the QB Muchie L on TOS and that was definitly him. It had him listed as dual threat. What a bonus if he can run because he sure can throw.

Welcome to the board and thanks for sharing the great info.

I can't believe the turnout today. I hope it continues throughout the remaining camps.

First time poster. I took my rising jujnior over to the lineman camp today. There were at least 90 OL and probably a few less than that DL. In the AM session, my son said that all the kids went through drills and were grouped by grade level. After lunch, the kids WERE grouped by ability level. I came back and watched after lunch and clearly saw an elite group of OL being watched and followed closely. My son was not in that group as he is a rising junior and although he is 6-5, he only weighs 220 lbs.

My son said it was perhaps the most intense practice he has ever been through and at the same time said it was the best day of his life. The coaches were all participating and encourageing to all.

Around 3, the players were taken over to the stadium and the parents were asked to stay behind due to construction. I stayed at the indoor facility while ny kid was absolutely floored by the coaches locker room talks, followed by a running onto the field, kneeling down at the 50 on a power T, and listening to Coach Lane Kiffin deliver a charge that made my kid talk for 3 hours all the way back to Nashville.

Now, about what I observed while the OL DLs were at Neyland.

Coaches Reeves, Gran, Wilson, and one more were working out some QBs, DBs, WRs that arrived early for camp tomorrow. I do not know their names but I will tell you that I have NEVER seen that much skill at on a field togther at one time in my entire LIFE. Two of the 6 or so QBs really stood out. A tall, slender balck QB with dreds and a not quite as tall, white QB with a stockier build. DBs covered like aglove all over the field and WRs had to fight them off to get open. The two QBs I mentioned routhinely hit the receivers in a very small window 15-30 yards down the field.

As far as nobody being allowed, there were parents everywhere so I do not know why you couldn't drop by.

Well at least it shows Tennessee kids are interested in coming to UT. I would like this type of turn out to camps be the norm in the future.

Big day today. 3 of the top 7 WRs in the nation, a 5 star RB, the #1 Dual-Threat QB in the nation, some of the best athletes from the 2011 class, Munchie, and ALOT of QBs who are under the radar will have the chance to earn an offer.
