Our Defense has some allure. King is raw. I think we can shape him into a player

I have seen this kid play. He is a beast. He can get from sideline to sideline as fast as anyone in the SEC.

King will be a stud for sure,But I belive the biggest surprise may be this afternoon we are doing well in W Tn,I dont have any inside info But my gut tells me despite all the hoop la about GA and OSU we may have a real shot at Marlon Brown after doing so well in W Tn with the recruits we have already signed......JMO

He's the great Linebacker we wanted anyway.
He fits Kiffy's system.
He isn't afraid of the competition at UT.

Amean, what all the doom and gloom people do not think is the day is not over yet. The only commitmentment i'v went dang about was Graves going to TT, let's see what Brown does.
RoyaltyVol writes:
If we do sign Brown, then I don't think anyone could argue that coach LK and staff didn't do a great job these past 2 months. I feel like this 09 class will be better than expected!

We are all devastated that you won't be caring this season. All I have seen from you was negativity anyway. Please "not care" enough to stop posting on here! The real Vol fans will keep supporting our team.
