Stone seems to be put in occasionally as a defensive enforcer, but not in key moments. As noted, he contributes little to the offensive production. I'm afraid if we bench these new kids with potential they will just leave to go somewhere else for more playing time. Redshirting is a thing of the past. Find what these kids strengths are and make them feel like they are contributing other wise you'll lose them...unless they just hang around like Stone and Allo.

Wasn’t Tennessee ranked #8 when we beat them out in Knoxville in the 70’s? GMG

Stone = Dwight Powell nothing wrong with that Vice = we will see

Random Thoughts: I remember that on a long bus ride back from Monroe Louisiana you wanted Dickey fired. I agree that Dickey did more with less than any Coach we have had in this Millennium. The 4 Bowl Games in New Orleans, especially the win over Cincinnati, are still among my favorite memories as a fan. If Dickey had dumped Ramon Flanigan very early and replaced him with a competent OC he would have been more successful. I was told that Dodge wanted to keep Defensive Coaches from Dickey's Staff and RV nixed that idea. I have never asked RV if that is true. However, if Dodge had kept the entire Defensive Staff from the Dickey years, I believe he would have been successful.

Kind of my point. I want him to succeed but he's just not made much progress if any at all. Why him but not these other kids? There's no way they can't match his production, he's scored zero points this season.
