Wow! All eleven coming back! Huge! Should be one of the very best defensive teams in the nation.

I was thinking that he would. Another good year as a starter should do a lot for his draft status.
Great news!
Go Tigers!

As much as I love him, I don't believe boulware was drafted was he? He did have a couple of tryouts.

Has a team with a top 15 defense ever had everyone come back? Heck, has any defense ever had all 11 starters return?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Nolan Turner is coming back


Jan 15, 2021, 2:16 PM

Hoping for 3-4 new starters - summer camp will be competitive.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Re: Nolan Turner is coming back


Jan 15, 2021, 2:42 PM

I'm hoping for 1-2 new starters(but not necessarily 1st time starters) and lots of fresh, fast, strong legs coming off of the bench and destroying opponents' hope.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Nolan Turner is coming back


Jan 15, 2021, 2:26 PM

Turner going to take reps away from talented players such as Mickens. He does not have the athleticism to cover elite WRs. Are we supposed to be excited about this?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Nolan Turner is coming back


Jan 15, 2021, 2:44 PM

If Mickens was better than Turner, then Turner wouldn't be taking plays away from him.

Turner is a returning ALL-AMERICAN safety.

Sorry if you don't get a lot of support on this take.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

No offense but when Tyler Venables plays over...


Jan 15, 2021, 2:59 PM

Some of the other guys at Safety, we know the best player isn’t playing.

Turner's a coach on the field and an outstanding player in the ACC. He is not extremely competitive covering NFL-level receivers.

I like Turner’s awareness at times, but...


Jan 15, 2021, 2:56 PM [ in reply to Re: Nolan Turner is coming back ]

I was really looking forward to seeing the younger more athletic guys get a crack at that position. I’ll welcome NT back with open arms, but I still believe we need a serious shakeup at LB and Safety.

Re: I like Turner’s awareness at times, but...


Jan 15, 2021, 3:02 PM

We need more athletic guys there badly, and we we have them. However, they sit behind players like Jake Venables and Nolan Turner. Of course don't tell the average Tigernet poster this becasue they're convied that these are elite players. The truth is, guys like Turner and the Venables boys would never start at Bama or Ohio State.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: I like Turner’s awareness at times, but...


Jan 16, 2021, 10:05 AM

Disagree. The reason why the Venables brothers played and Turner starts is because the higher rated more athletic players are not grasping the defense as well and are not where they should be.

If Bentley was grasping the playbook for example, we would be seeing allot of that kid.

It is obvious that the ones that are not seeing allot of reps are too much of a liability to the scheme from an mental execution perspective. The coaches sons are going to know what they are doing much quicker as they grew up around it.

Bottom line is we are going to have a very strong 2 deep (3 deep at some positions) with a good rotation next year.

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Oh, that must be why there’s no drop off when the second string comes in.

Getting Nolan back is a plus for reasons on and off field. He makes us better. Younger players will benefit from his leadership. Against top teams we played this year, our defense had tough time. We have players with little paws on helmet playing through ACC, but against those two teams, looked slow, overly dependent on the sideline and unable to catch those quicker opponents. I respect our coaches. Just an observation.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Agreed


Jan 16, 2021, 9:21 AM [ in reply to I like Turner’s awareness at times, but... ]

I'd love to see us pick up Henry Too'too if he leaves Tennessee. He'll probably transfer to a SoCal school, though. Apparently homesick and is a Cali guy.

Re: Nolan Turner is coming back


Jan 16, 2021, 11:35 AM [ in reply to Re: Nolan Turner is coming back ]

Agree 100%. He's not going to get any better. Would he play for Ohio state or Bama? Will he play in the NFL?

Potentially Justin Foster as well? So is that 12 returning starters? ;)

If we are going there then you can count XT as the 13th on the list.

Re: Nolan Turner is coming back


Jan 16, 2021, 8:41 AM

Before the Ohio State game, they said that with all of the injuries that we had last year there were 23 different young men that started on defense. My guess is that close to 20 of them will be back, and I have faith that Coach Venables will correct the miscommunication issues.

Not to discredit this post, but where is the source? Unless I've missed something on twitter (which is entirely possible) I haven't seen anything to confirm his return.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Nolan Turner is coming back


Jan 15, 2021, 2:53 PM

I haven't seen it either, but apparently he made a general remark on social media but didn't make the noticeable gesture that others have made.

I am excited about it but our defense needs much improvement to help win a Natty.

He (Nolan) posted it on Twitter....but as soon as Ywitter found out that Nolan voted for Trump they cancelled his post. Just sayin

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Someone straight up asked him in the comments of Ross’s Instagram post


Jan 15, 2021, 10:53 PM [ in reply to Re: Nolan Turner is coming back ]

Paraphrasing a bit but the person asked Nolan if he is coming back to join Ross and he said “yeah we back” or something along those lines.

I was hoping we could bridge the gap the half he was out but our guys looked so lost. Still amazed what he did was targeting but whatever.
