Witten a vol next year or a pro

He's a different kind of TE. The bottom line is, Jason is 270lbs and at that weight is a tremendous athlete. But because of his large frame, he isn't able to be as light on his feet as Shockey. That's all I'm saying. They are different kind of tight ends.

 

Also, re: his draft status, there are maybe two or three TEs that will go ahead of him this year. It will be hard for him to crack the 1st round. if he can put up some impressive workouts at the combines he may have a chance.

witten needs to leave while he can, ut is going to start going down for a while. i am a big ut fan and things just don't look good, it is going to take two years or so to recruit great recievers and get them into the system and by then clausen will be gone and they will have a new qb. i think witten should leave and take the money and run with it. why stay at ut, they have no shot at twinning the national title next year. so go to the NFL and make some dough.

I hope he stays b/c contrary to what some UT fans Think they are not on the downslide.Lets look, if Anyone would have told you that UT would finish the season at 8-4 or 7-5 depending on the saturday outcome in August most people would have said you were crazy. Now, if you would have been asked the same thing then told that UT would have 18 starters miss at least one game, Kelley Washington would basiclly not play all year, Clausen would be hurt all year and play at about 70% if that, their best RB would miss half the year then would you have thought they would win this many games? Wtih the returning players next year and hopefully Witten will be one, they will be a contender again. Take that many starters off at Miami or Ohio state and see how they do. I think the receiver corp is getting better and will keep improving Brown, wade and Montrell Jones will be good receivers along with possibly Banks out there next year.

    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
