The CheckerBoard

+1 on the info. I know it doesn't always translate to game speed but how does Coleman compare to Teague in the speed department?

LOL!!! I agree volfan28!!!

Can NCAA universities hold "tryouts" in the early summer where graduating high school kickers could come and work through a camp and then be offered a scholarship? Just wondering.

Im sure they could come to summer camps at UT. In the case of these 2 kids a staff member could of jumped in a car on most Fridays and been to their games in 45 minutes or less.

Kind of curious what the reason is that in four recruiting classes, we have little speed at the DB position? It would seem like speed would be one of the top qualities looked for in defensive backs, well especially CBs. With the speedy skill position athletes that most teams in the SEC have, it would seem this would be a priority year in and year out. I know the last few years have been very different and difficult with the coaching changes but sure seems like sometime in those years they would have recruited some guys with SEC quality speed. It's a little late to be thinking about it now but sure hard to run a gambling type defense and leave your corners one on one when they don't have the speed to hang with the wide outs in this league. They may be able to hang speed wise with some of the non conference teams but every team in the SEC has speed at the skill positions on offense.

Sounds like maybe the 40 time needs to be a point of emphasis during recruiting season .
