SweetScience Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Rogan was 4.48-4.52 in HS. This kid is high 4.5s to probably consistant mid 4.6s. Will end up on defense somewhere. Yeah and that 40 speed is not SEC level speed. I'll trust Butch's decision though. I just don't see him being a star like you said or even a 1st team starter, but I do hope he proves me wrong actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The jump from HS to college is truly remarkable if the kid puts effort into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is though is Devrin and even Cody Blanc from Central were much faster than Joc and neither have really broke into top players. Yet at least.

That isn't the roll they were recruited for. They are depth/developmental recruits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lionheart111 Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Joq ran a 4.55 at UT's camp. They want him as an underneath slot receiver where quickness is more important than straight line speed. No one could cover him at camp. That's why he got the offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionheart111 Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 (edited) He ran a 4.64 a few months back, but started training with a track/speed coach and got down to a 4.55 at UT's camp. Edited July 1, 2014 by lionheart111 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetScience Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 I think UT should offer Cottrell from West. Talk about SPEED. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTV Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 (edited) I think UT should offer Cottrell from West. Talk about SPEED. That one is done. Nathan is firm to GaTech and isn't visiting or talking to anybody else. He fits the GaTech offense much better than he does UT's offense, anyway. Good spot for him and he's going to get a great education at Tech. Edited July 1, 2014 by HTV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's great. Guy has speed to burn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetScience Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Although I think if UT offered Nathan he would take a look for sure. Even said as much on sportstalk radio not long ago. Said he would "love to" receive a offer from UT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladerunner Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Hmmm....2 guys from Oak Ridge bashing 2 young men that don't play for OR. Perhaps a little jealousy since UT doesn't come calling on Oak Ridge kids too often these days? I'm guessing if Woods or Bruce played for OR you guys wouldn't be saying this. Nothing against OR, good program with several good athletes. But you 2 need to realize that the 2 men you are talking about have been offered by UT & from my understanding a couple other high profile schools have contacted them so I think they are good enough. Good Luck Joc, don't let the nagative nancys get to you. I think I may have missed where you played. Where was that again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
