......Kid is a STUD. I hope everyone stays healthy and we can redshirt him....But it just doesn't seem right that he won't Have a significant role this year.

I have been saying since Flummo signed him he reminds me of Barry Sanders.

No doubt the kid can play. No way to keep all 4 guys off the field. They all look fantastic. Credit to the OL for a change too.

I've been wondering why he is sunk so deep in the depth chart for 2 weeks now. I would just like a fukin explanation why this kid is not playin. He tore it the fuk up in spring.

....of the "way things are".....He's NOT one of Kiffin's recruits and he's playing a position that Kiffin Recruited two Stallions to play. Kiffin wants to show the rest of those H.S. Sr's,Jr's & Sophs that he REALLY will put your ass on the field if you are a Player.....Poole is just in an Unfortunate position.

Makes sense Hawk, but he deserves playin time...he worked his ass off in practice. If his tme doesn't increase soon he will be outta here.

He ran hard today on his few carries. Wanted to see him him get in the end zone but he got subbed and Oku got his 2nd td.

Damn, fat fuck is gone guys. The days of playing favorites and depth chart politics is over, this staff has proven that. The best players will play no matter who recruited, signed or nursed them. If Poole proves it during the week, he'll get to show it on Saturdays, period. It's time to get over the fulmer mentality even though after all these years it is tough. You just have to refuse to let your mind go back into that cesspool. And if he wants to leave, so be it.

Kiffin said that Poole had been dinged up coming out of the pre-season. That may be why he is where he is at on the depth chart. That statement seemed to have not garnered much attention as I saw it in a live video but haven;t seen it written about.

Poole looked a lot more explosive than I remembered him being but so did all of our backs.

Right....he got a concussion in the final scrimmage.

I'm not so sure about that. I think there may be a teenie weenie bit of truth to what HAWKie posted. Poole got a mild concussion in the last scrimmage. While Oku looked good today, if I have to get a 1st down against UF or Bamma and those two are my choices, I'd go with a healthy Poole.

Kiffin doesn't need to show all of the bullets in his gun just yet. Those games are coming, but not today.

If he can catch, move him to WR.
