Volquest answers your Tennessee football, baseball & recruiting questions in the July 11 mailbag
00:31 SlappyVol: Talk about this roster compared to previous UT teams - who does this team most resemble from a talent and storyline standpoint?
6:00 AkensVFL24: Does Gass play LB or Leo if we land him?
How has Kaleb Beasley recovered from injury? Where does he get looks in camp? He seems versatile to play all 5 positions.
6:46 Volken: If you are given the impossible task of making that prediction now before any pads go on which units are you picking?
9:59 JRockUT: How do you judge/grade Coach Joey Halzle to this point? Did having Joe Milton as QB1 make it unfair to judge Halzle yet?
11:19 Dirk Digler: Would y'all consider TN baseball to be the so called cool school for baseball players?
13:11 Jet_3: Does Heupel get an extension if he gets Tennessee into the playoffs?
15:09 ThatVolGuy: Do y'all get the sense that baseball winning the title could be a breakthrough or watershed moment for the athletic department as a whole? Like shaking off the championship inertia a bit?
19:23 DalVol5: There are plenty of stories of recruits that had the story written and ended up not at Tennessee, but what about coaches? I’ve always heard that Dave Aranda was basically a done deal under Butch.
24:04 BearVol: Will Seldon and Lewis be available for NC State? If so, will there be a pitch count on their carries?
24:28 AP: What is the main strength OSU has going for itself when it comes to Sanders? Would you venture to guess that both UT and OSU are offering the same when it comes to NIL?
27:07 Is Faizon trending to the good guys? I would love an infamous AP percentage on this.
27:43 Bonus: For Dooley, Butch and Pruitt, can you think back to a certain game for each when you knew they weren’t going to be able to get it done long term?
30:17 Dekalbcountyvol: Baseball and basketball seem to be to the point where they just reload every season. How close do you think football is to being there as well?
32:21 GroverLevy: Doug Mathews mentioned on Big Orange Sunday that UT had 15 or 16 public commitments, as well as several private commitments, and that in some instances coaches have asked the recruits to hold off on making an announcement so they can stagger them. Do you believe that to be the case with this class?
34:05 SethDaddy21: With us looking in a good spot for Travis Smith does that have any effect on Juan Gaston?
34:16 With Georgia taking 7 offensive linemen last year and looking at taking 4+ this year does that give Gaston some doubts with them?
35:24 Forever Faithful: What is one recruiting rule change that has taken place that has bettered the recruiting process, and one that has made the process worse?
38:42 TPSReports: I've heard people describe neutral site games as beneficial for recruiting - how does it help? Is it just an easier unofficial visit for prospects in the area?
39:15 The ADaug: Tennessee seems to be going up against Georgia/Ohio State/Alabama more this cycle as opposed to Auburn/Florida. Is that indicative of recruiting a higher caliber of player, or just how it has worked out this time around?
41:18 Rheltney 4 Life: How is Cam Seldon coming along? When is the expectation of first contact?
2. Is Bru McCoy full go for pre-season or does he still have some restrictions?
3. If we win 2 of 3 from Georgia, Bama, and Oklahoma are we in the playoff?
42:44 901VFL: Tell me why I shouldn’t be worried about safety recruiting, seems like it’s consistently our weakest spot on the defense.
43:19 Athrun: Where do we stand with Sanders with his commitment on the horizon? Why does the rest of the nation think that Heupel’s offense does not develop receivers? He has sent more wideouts to the NFL since being a head coach than pretty much anyone. How big will it be to be getting Hunter Ensley back next season? How many DL do you see us taking in this class?
46:10 Nike_Vol: How would you handle the Running back workload for the games in the month of September?
47:12 Pine: I feel best about the DL and ______________ going into fall camp. I am most concerned about _________________ going into fall camp.
48:06 IBelieveICanVol: Perlotte and Gass seem to be Vol leans as of now. If we get both are we done at LB?
