Wisconsin RB denied admission, lists Vols

Wonder if the staff got wind of this and may have played into the Jacque Bruce situation. Him being late for class seems like a minor issue, certainly not worthy of dismissal from the team.
 
From what I understand he wants to commit very soon so that he can enroll and get into workouts ahead of practice.
 
Fortenberry just tweeted a 4 star has just been added to orange carpet list of expected visitors tomorrow. I'll bet it's Jordan!
 
Just looked at Tennessee, OKState, and Nebraskas roster, we have the most favorable roster to be on for a RB.

Both three years removed from high school, one of those years being a redshirt. I'm not seeing a huge difference. Also the one and done jucos already mentioned are a pretty good comparison.

I'm not saying guys don't leave 3 years removed from HS, that happens every year. I imagine few play 1 year juco and 1 year D-1 and leave. The point is our fanbase builds guys up so much before they've done anything and then label them a bust if they don't meet our unrealistic expectations. Talking about depth possibly being an issue in 2016 cause Kamara could leave is getting way ahead.

Moreno had two 1400 yard years; we haven't had anyone close to that in 5 years.

I'm not building him up. Dude is a great player and in the scenario I came up with its not totally out of the realm of possibility especially if Hurd gets injured. Now is it likely? No. But can it happen? Absolutely it could. Calm yourself. It will be a great year and things will play out. We still only have 4 running backs right now. Not a lot in the grand scheme of things. Kamara will be a great back here. I guess I was thinking proactive. Still feel we need a '16 RB even with Stevenson.
