'25 UT OG Douglas Utu (Oregon commit)

[LittleVol]

but what about the 2025 prospects?

Harrison is 2026

 

[swchandler1988]

We’re getting ahead of ourselves, let’s get through the 2025 cycle before we talk about 2025 recruits

 

[wmcovol]

When he committed in Dec ‘22 he had 3 years of eligibility left due to Covid season and a RS season

Karmic needs to prove he CAN play this year. Last year had to be disappointing

Karic*. Came in “too light” last year and I think the transition to SEC was a big adjustment. Hopefully a year in our strength and conditioning has done some good. Quality depth is needed. Regardless, looks like Lampley is taking control of that spot

 

[Buzzbait]

Let's go over 2025 first before we start discussing 2025

Glad to hear this; could have been so easy to skip 2025…..

 

[LouderVol]

Harrison is 2026

you may want to review your post to see what all the jokes are about.

Tennessee football commit, top Vols targets named MaxPreps preseason All-Americans

 

[VOLociraptorr]

Wiltfong said utu was as coveted on the interior as Sanders was as a tackle. Imagine the sorry defensive line who tries to get past Utu, Sanders, Warren, and Heard (I I have no clue who the center will be)

That is a championship level offensive line

Edit: I realize I have three offensive tackles on there. Here's to hoping one plays on the interior for playing time

Satterwhite at center

Satterwhite will be the guy probably.

Yes our oline is set.
All “blue chip” guys that will win a lot of games and play football for a long time.

And no drama guys! We have high caliber character as well. I remember being very impressed with Warren last year

Yes. High character, high talented guys

In 2026 season:
LT Sanders 6’6 320 So
LG Duncan 6’5 310 RsJr
C Satterwhite 6’3 305 RsSo
RG Utu 6’5 330 So
RT Warren 6’7 335 RSSo
That’s my guess

But we’ll still have the greatest depth ever.

RT Warren 6’7 335 RSSo

But we’ll still have the greatest depth ever.

LT Sanders, Heard
LG Ginther, Utu
C Satterwhite, Lang
RG Perry, Anderson
RT Warren, Duncan

 

[Go Fight Win]

Think Perry ends up at RT. Staff love his length

 

[NighthawkVol]

I like the Duncan at LG pick. I’m going with Jesse Perry there myself.

 

[NighthawkVol]

I think Perry will start somewhere. He’s gonna be good. So many great OLine prospects on this team.

Great story…and a testament to our coaches evaluation skills vs stars.

 

[LaagerVol]

LT Sanders, Heard
LG Ginther, Utu
C Satterwhite, Lang
RG Perry, Anderson
RT Warren, Duncan

That’s a lot of legit depth and doesn’t even include Ogumoro. Will Johnson III still be here in 26?

I think Utu is starting at one of the G positions by his sophomore year

 

[TrippieRedd]

Bright future on the OL.

Utu, Satterwhite, Sanders, and Warren, shewwww

So let's say all those guys retire from football.
We'd still have

Jamie's Heard 6'8 300 OT
Aiden Bussell 6'6 300 OG
Vysn Lang 6'4 330 OG/C
Moore 6'3 305 C
Gage Gunther 6'5 310 OG
Jessie Perry 6'6 320 OT
Max Anderson 6'5 305 OG/OT
Sham Umrov 6'6 320 OG
!!!

Nonsense! Elarbee can't recruit and when we do land big time lineman it had nothing to do with him lol.

Lol it was the insider that said this.

CGE is just kind of an introvert. Who cares? It obviously hasn’t hurt our ELITE OL class this year. They know they are gonna get developed by an excellent coach. And the staff has obviously built a recruiting apparatus that plays to our coaches’ strengths and makes up for their weaknesses.

There are very few questions left in terms of our talent acquisition if this class is any indication, and CGE is definitely not one holding us back. It makes no difference the role he plays in getting them here, as long as they get here. His job is to coach and develop, and they’ve obviously got the recruiting part covered.

Larry Johnson is a RS Sophomore this year, so yes.
