Vols place 5 on All-SEC teams

[TSwafford]

1 1st team offense - Patterson
4 2nd team offense - Tiny, D Thomas, Hunter, and Rivera

edit: also looks like it all but confirmed about CP and Hunter leaving.

Was blessed to make Second Team All-SEC behind 2 first rounders in the 2013 draft. The grind doesn't stop.

I sure hope CP stays!

I sure hope CP stays!

I believe Hunter, CP and potentially Bray leaves. I don't see any reason for Hunter and CP with as high in the draft as they are projected.

And I wish they would stay too.

CP hasnt been going to class so id say he is done.

Sal was DC of the year

pretty cool stat on CP:

Patterson is Tennessee's first-ever all-purpose first-team selection

Patterson became the first player in the NCAA to record a touchdown four different ways in the same season since 2008 and the first-ever to accomplish the feat at Tennessee.

no one on defense? shocking considering all the "beasts" i heard about all summer.

 

[Jax_Vol]

Congratulations to all five!

No defensive players selected...not exactly shocking....lol!

"Behind two first rounders." AKA The two tackles that made first team.

Why no Bray????????????

 

[Biopsyman]

Teague got robbed!

 

[volfan53]

Sal was DC of the year

No, he was the OC of the year for every team we played.

 

[captain chaos]

Why no Bray????????????

look at his stats vs the sec

 

[jhen713]

Sal was DC of the year

Selected by the OC's of the other 13 schools for sure.

Congratulations to the Vols that earned their place on the list!!

 

[Roustabout]

Rod Wilks?

Obviously this is not legit.

 

[Fijivol72]

Congrats to the fine offensive players that were named. Each deserved their awards.

 

[Spartacavolus]

You know, I know I complained about the O sometimes. And people talked about how they would bet CP wished he had gone somewhere else to show his talents more.

He made all SEC and will be a first round pick. If you have any perspective, there is nothing really to complain about if you are him or us. Yes, we could have done more. But the guy was on ESPN top 10 on multiple occasions and has his stock still rising better than burning out at the beginning of the year with a lot of pub and pressure.

 

[WillisWG]

Congrats to all.

pretty cool stat on CP:

And just think, had rivera gotten about 5 more yards, he would've had a TD pass too.

 

[SWFLvol33]

WTF no Palardy????? aka weapon X

 

[flowd82]

I am surprised to see no AJ Johnson.

I know UT's defense was atrocious, but 130+ tackles and 6 rushing TDs is extremely impressive.

AJ played his ass off all season, had a spectacular season statistically, and deserved recognition for it.

 

[vollygirl]

Serious question...why is it not enough just to compliment the players who earned the recognition (or skip the thread entirely and say nothing at all)? Why do some of you have to jab other players and the team and the program every chance you get?

I really don't get it.

They have penis envy.

how does A.J. not get first or second team. The SEC leading tackler has made first team the past 6 years, and he was also 4th in the nation in tackles.
