Them Vols offseason thread

[BenTenn]

That sucks. I am pumped about this trip, even though we will probably get curb-stomped that night. Just a cool opportunity to see DEM VOLS play against another traditional powerhouse outside of the SEC.

I bet Smalls wishes UT bought out of it, puss.

So Mosely checked it at 378 this week. 40 lbs north of where they wanted him.

Wow. And there was a thread in FF saying he should start. Lol

Yeah I would be shocked if Ladarrell holds him off very long. Secondary talent is gonna force some changes.

Reports that I've received state similar to what's coming out of Butler High that Riley Ferguson has until Monday and will wait until Monday to sit down with Tennessee football coach Butch Jones. Sources tell me this is not due to disciplinary action as a result of a violation of team rules.*

Ferguson must decide if he wants to play at Tennessee. Jones wants players that want to be at Tennessee.

Ferguson must also understand that he must flat beat out his competition to be the Volunteers' starting quarterback. With the least amount of experience of the four, he must show that he can lead men and will teammates to play above their set of skills. He must also embrace the stress points of the job, which include a tremendous amount of work outside of the NCAA allowed, coach-led workload. Ferguson has been seen by IT getting in extra reps with pass-catchers post practice.*

Tennessee faces as tough or tougher competition as any program in the nation. That means facing numerous Sunday-bound defenders and several high-profile defensive coordinators and staffs. The work goes far beyond the physical side.*Vols quarterbacks must win the play at times pre-snap by having the proper play call and knowing where the football must go. Ferguson has plenty of quarterback talent to get this done, but he absolutely has to improve from the neck up.

He gone?

According to LWS, Butch shut the door on it Tuesday. He wants people that want to be Vols

The idiots in the Mosely thread are the exact reason I won't give any info I have to that board. And he isn't 372. He is 378. My buddy was helping record the weights.

This is exactly why all the good posters, that actually know something, get run off.

Funny thing is... Even the people saying "yeah he's probably 378" weren't saying it's the end of the world. So he red shirts. Sawyers and Barnett and maybe Owen could have been better even if he were in shape.

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

Switching gears, I think Jashon is gonna go straight beast.

 

[005]

Not being a dick but... Inside info there or just like him as a prospect?

Haha no I just like him. Vol74 seems to like him a good bit also, he keeps up with him through Jalen.

 

[005]

Seem to remember a "strongest newcomer" label on him being mentioned a couple days ago. Can't be a bad thing.

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

We lucked into him. He would've been highly ranked if he wouldn't have shut it down so early. Thanks Franklin.

Multiple sources indicate to IT that mutual time was not set side for a meeting Monday between coach Butch Jones and redshirt freshman quarterback Riley Ferguson. As we are starting to see more and more often across the UTAD, those who don't want to be on Rocky Top will not be courted to stay. That's why it spends thousands of dollars on recruiting all over the country. So, Team 118 will go into the summer with Joshua Dobbs, Nathan Peterman and Justin Worley as its three scholarship quarterbacks. The staff still intends to sign two trigger men in the 2015 class.
