I wonder if Kagawa will get significant playing time this year? I think he was a last minute signee but there has been too much talent in front of him it seems.

My pleasure. Trying to make these "dog days" more interesting. Funny how we ease into the other seasons almost seemingly because football and the other sports glide into each other. Awaiting this oblong ball season is even longer, thanks to last year with the injuries/youth.
Still trying to find out about Ben Jean on the first page of this thread. The only number not given out, and by all accounts he seemed like a lock for being a PWO enrollee.

I feel really good about Mitchell and P.J. at 2 of our 3 LB spots. We have some good depth across the linebacking corps. When you have a potential stud like Alexander as a backup that says a lot about the guys you have in that unit. Hoping a guy like Curry can and will step up at the rover backer position and make some plays. P.J. is now the "old man" of the group and needs to be a leader of the defense along with Gamble & Rook-Chungong.
It is very likely we return 8 starters on D in '17 with 18 or 19 of the 22 two-deep as well.

You're right about '17. We have a ton of players returning. On both sides, minus QB. It's going to be interesting to see who can step into that spot. That first game against UT is going to be interesting. Whoever it is, hopefully it'll be a smooth transition. Like JT's first year as starter. He's going to get thrown into the fire real quick. I just hope we won't get burnt.
Regarding that UT opener in '17, the Vols will be replacing their starting QB, Josh Dobbs, who with a successful season this fall as many are projecting for the Big Orange could be a Heisman candidate come late October. As normal, UT will find out what they are about by that time (late October) as their schedule is front-loaded as always. They have a bunch of guys this year who are juniors and will potentially be entering the NFL Draft a year early - for Tech's sake in that '17 game, we hope so.
Unlikely to happen, but if no guys enter the NFL Draft early, UT could start as many as 13 returning starting seniors in that opener against us in '17 including stud RB Jalen Hurd (who I think along with as many as 5 other juniors may bolt to the NFL after this season). Regardless, the Vols have recruited well and they'll be very strong. We will return a lot as well less JT5 as you point out on both sides of the LOS. Can't wait.

PJ is a solid LB. He was a player that the recruiting services rated very low simply due to his height. He's listed a generous 5-11, in new cleats. He is certainly a great college player. Hope he gets All ACC honors again this year.

39 days sounds so much better than 40. It's like how my small amount of intelligence is constantly offended by the marketing weezils who sell things for $7.99 instead of $8. Of course, this is probably bordering on math and we said there'd be no math on this board.
(just 5 more days to this pathetic month...please Dear Buddha, get me through the remainder of this week and to the finish line)

July is an awesome month, don't wish away your life. Now is the time to go back and watch all the great games from the past.
Go watch the GT Orange Bowl, it'll take your mind off things.

I'm not wishing away my life. I'm just wishing away July. I've watched enough great games of the past. More than ready to watch some great games in the current and coming up in the future. I'd rather get my mind on things rather than off things. Hence, why July sucks so badly. To each his own, but thanks for the attempt to make this last week until preseason drills get going a bit better.

Unlimited potential and I'm as excited about what he (#34 MM) can accomplish at Tech as any RB since Dwyer signed. Could be one that we look back at one day as one of the greatest RB's in Tech history. Just stay healthy.
edit note: looking forward to MM's brother playing for *MY* Redskins as a rookie this season.
