Hey Huntingdon people. I heard a rumor that Fulmer was in town last week talking to Coach Mans about C Donald coming to The Hill in 07. Is this true? I know that Chris has said he wants to play on Rocky Top.

pretty sure it is true...we have a huntingdon connection on our staff....old OC....he said Chris is solid on the Vols

You are talking Coach S. I know him. I have read that Chris loves the Vols. He fits perfect into Coach Cheif's defensive scheme. Fast, built and will clean your clock when he lays the wood you.

Fulmer and Trooper Taylor flew in Monday morning and flew out after lunch. Austin Peay was there as well. Fulmer got the most attention and request for pictures. He never spoke to Chris but they talked with Coach Mansfield for a long time. Reports are Fulmer was very personable and very open with everyone that spoke to him. Very much like he was back before and during the time of the National Championship. I'm intrigued that Taylor was present and that they are considering him as a running back. I've liked his look and abilities as a linebacker or if he grows more a defensive end. But, you know, next year we may see just how good he could be as a full time running back in our backfield with a very seasoned offensive line.

Good to know Tennessee is taking the recruitment of Chris Donald seriously. Sometimes the good ones slip to other schools because a college thinks they have him in the bag.

I am looking forward to seeing how defenses scheme against the Mustangs next year. You lnow they will put at least 8 in the box at all times and cheat with 1 or 2 more blitzing trying to fill the holes. Can Donald take a full season of being the man and getting tackled 25 - 30 times a game? No doubt he is one awesome player, a joy to watch. I hope he is able to stay healthy. It should be a fun season of football in Region 7-2A next year.

Trooper is a great recruiter. He recruits all positions, if Fulmer brought Taylor on the trip with him, he wants Chris bad. As he should, he let Patrick Willis slip through his hands, I guess another talent like that coming out of the same county kinda open some eyes. Hasnt he already a visit from a Tennessee recruiter, I heard about 3 weeks ago that somebody from Knoxville was there talking with him.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
