Some still have feelings that he did not go to UT.

Does anyone beside me think that he made the best decision NOT to go there and be buried on the depth chart in the defensive backfield?

Everything happens for a reason and MannCobb is better for it.

Reminds me of another Cobb that got away from UT...

I dont agree w/ that, I think he could have had a similar role as he did w/ KY. Either way I think he will have a dynamite career playing the "slash" role in the NFL. I would even say he is the new edition "Slash 2.0".....

I dont agree w/ that

I don't agree with you.

Fulmer did not play Freshmen...Brooks did.

Cobb made his mark as a Freshman.

Cobb played three years.

Further proof...Manning did not start as freshman, until Colquitt got hurt and Florida sent Todd Helton into retirement. (his first start week 5 v Wazzu a 10-9 win)

As a starter, Manning STILL split time with Brandon Stewart until Stewart transferred.

There is a HUGE list of kids that did well that did not go to UT either because Fulmer came after them too late or the kids knew that playing time would not come until their third year on campus. (after Redshirt and freshman seasons)

Fine whatever, I really didnt care about it enough to study it, I still feel he could have played receiver K/PR even if he didnt play until his soph. year.....

Fulmer played freshmen. Maybe not as many as Brooks or others, but he played them if they were good enough.

You're wrong on Manning/Stewart. Stewart tranferred AFTER Manning beat him out.

I'm sure Fulmer did miss out on some players. Don't all coaches? I believe Fulmer also got some players from other states that did quite well in Knoxville.

All in all, I'll take Fulmer's overall record of winning over 75% of his games, playing in the SEC and playing top flite non conference teams every year, on top of the only National Championship most of us will ever see as a good thing.....in spite of him honestly telling Cobb he wasn't SEC QB material.

    • It is what it is. Sorry DFL.
    • One of the biggest loosing teams in Mid-State are the Macon County Tigerettes. I have noticed that the roster is smaller than in the years past. All the senior's have quit. We have a great group of Jr High players coming up. I sure hope they don't loose them, like they have lost so many others this year. With this young group of girls coming up, a weaker district, they should have no problem going to State. 
    • It was updated this season, because I did it.  Linder is the school's all-time leading rusher at 5,156 yards with 2,436 of those coming in 2014. 
    • Oh, I’m sure you did. Maybe you heard just a rumor, but considering we have a football practice field and a soccer field that’s frequently used for lacrosse games and practices, I highly doubt it. Let me change that. I know for a fact that didn’t happen.   Glad you finally stopped attacking a bunch of high school students, but still obsessed with the coaching staff for some unknown reason, even though you could name more than three (at most) coaches without looking it up. But now come up with something else.
    • You really mean the Price twin boys and Lyin Larry.
