I think offensively Malone and Hurd.
Defense will probably be Weatherd and the berry boys.. The berry brothers will have special teams impact that reeves Maybin had last year.
I like a lot of our new guys, but I for some reason have a gut feeling we're going to hear the name Jakob Johnson a lot. CBJ called him the alpha male of this class and he looks like he'd be a beast on the field.
I'm taking JJohnson, Gaulden, Hendrix and Weatherd on D and I'd say Hurd, Malone, Pearson on O and I wouldn't be surprised with TK and Kreamer doing well also!
That's what I was going to say. I also think Vic will have an impact as well. Obviously Hurd and Malone. A dark horse for me would be Johnson. He could become an absolute monster LB.

The Vols have a history of producing at running back. With the qb and o-line up in the air a big talent at running back is an absolute priority on offense. I hope the year off due to the shoulder injury doesn't hinder him. If I was prepping my Utah State d-line for 8/30/14 I would be showing a lot of Hurd tape. That's a good sign.
