He wants to play with a QB that can get him the ball. Like I said he is an extremely outspoken competitive kid. But hes not begging for attention with his recruitment like others are.

Wow Whop really got screwed then...

To get to BAMA's level, you have to have some elite speed in a few positions. Not all, but at least a few. Like sub 4.5......RB, WR, and DBs come to mind mostly. And if one or two of those could return kickoffs and punts to give us an occasional breakaway TD, it would be a big plus. The latest RB we have committed from Alabama has around 4.4 from what everyone tells me. That is good, and we could use several more like that.

We do not have a 4.7 WR or DB playing, well maybe Williams and McLaurin

Might be wrong, but I think he's saying that if Mingo would be ready to play and start next season then Whop definitely was ready to play and start this season due to his talent compared to Mingo's.

I think this is way over generalizing.

You don't know the football IQ, intelligence, or polish of a player even if they have similar skill sets.

That being said, I think Mingo has a little lighter feet than Whop which should leade to slightly more advanced route running.

Every WR we sign should have the chance to get a look. We're that bad at WR (and thin). Doesn't mean they'll play, but if they can, they will.

I don?t think any true freshman WR?s will start in this offense. It?s not just the QB who is supposed to be able to read the defenses in this scheme.

That would be awesome. Without any inside info though, I doubt it with us taking 2 RBs

Would think you'd make room in anyway possible.

What evidence suggests Gray has any interest in MSU? He has an official set up with OM but not us. Yea he would be a take but I don't see it happening.

Rosebowl said something must have happened between Tenn. and Gray, appears he is calling around checking his options.

From Commercial Appeal two days ago:

"With his commitment to Michigan "hanging in the balance," Lausanne running back Eric Gray says he will visit two more SEC schools before signing day.

"More than likely it will be Ole Miss and Alabama, and if not Alabama it will be Ole Miss and Texas A&M," said Gray.

The 5-10, 195 pound senior is the No. 3 all-purpose back in the country and the No. 8 overall prospect in Tennessee according to the 247Sports composite rankings."

Gray will end up at TN as long as TN new OC wants him & I expect whoever it is will want him.

There is no need to drop Walker
Hill prob tests the NFL water after next year
Gibson will gone as well
2020
You have
Walker SR
Witherspoon will redshirt no matter what unless we are by a injury bug RSfrosh
And if you sign Gray a Soph at worse ( maybe he redshirts )

No need to drop Walker .
And yes more than likely Gray ends up a Vol

This post right here. Thank you. Lot of folks can't see the forest through the trees. If we got Gray, we still might lose 2 RBs after next year. Why would you drop Walker, especially given he's a JUCO?

How do you think Gray would feel about Freeze as his new OC?

As long as the OC wants Gray I think he'll be at TN. He'd likely sell him on being a better Jeff Scott & Jaylon Walton.

If SaBear couldn't get St Hugh the Pious hired in the SEC no one will.... ever.

Yeah that just hit me. We're likely down to two known RB's on roster after '19.

I know numbers are tight but damn Everett Cunningham looks like a player coming off the edge.

What is the deal with Drummond looks like a player on film, gotta be his speed I suppose looks like a possession guy?

It should be very clear at this point that Moorhead prioritizes speed.

If Drummond has a speed question, the I doubt we offer. Just isn't what he's looking for

Yeah my thinking as well, not that I hate it kinda like the philosophy. As long as they have sure hands get all the speed you want. Really interested to watch how JoMo builds this team going forward. Just hope we keep our physicality while being explosive.

I like the philosophy. It doesn't mean that Drummond won't end being a really good player, it's just clear what Jomo wants, particularly with guys that aren't obvious studs

I doubt the SEC has an official rule allowing them to block it, and UT would absolutely be dumb/arrogant enough to ignore the "suggestions" and hire him anyway.
