Luca Wolf

And it is obviously a need right now after Dodson's injury.

Yeah, and does Luca Wolf, the freshman tight end, who I think is a great story because he's in his third year of football, he ended up with 20 snaps against Furman.

And that was by design because you've got to figure out what he can do.

This was a team that a year ago played Jack Van door slayer as a freshman, a bunch, cause they had to now he was limited in what they asked him to do, but he was a part of that 12 personnel as a blocking guy.

Can Luca Wolf emerge as maybe a guy who you don't play him as your sole tight end when you're in three wides, but do you play him in the, in the two tight end stuff, giving you more flexibility with the song brain and the slot position.

If that's where you need to go in your passing game.

I think that's pretty, pretty interesting.

They think there's some things there with him.

Luca Wolf is a physical player, but he's young.

It's hard to see a freshman make a ton of impact there, but we saw Jack Van door slayer play quite a few snaps at tight in a year ago and limited.

And what they asked him to do was limited.

And you could do that certainly with a Luca Wolf.

It's just, is where does son brain fits into all of this beyond being a really good athlete to me remains a question, um, heading into week two and heading into the rest of this season.

He repped the slot position at the end of last year because they didn't have any depth there, and they were trying to find some things for him.

But for me, man, I'm looking at the tight ends on offense.

And what do we get from Trent Thomas? What do we get from Luca Wolf? What do we get from Brain? Three guys that haven't played a lot of football here in Tennessee.

And remember when we got Miles Kitzman from Alabama, we thought he was a run game type of tight end.

And we underestimated his athleticism and his ability to be a pass catcher in the passing game.

Well, Trent Thomas is labeled kind of the same.

All right, man, run game, tight end.

What if he gives you more? What if he's different when the game is on? Luca Wolf, we had a freshman tight end last year that – Saw some significant reps in big games.

He's no longer he anymore.

I think he's got to keep, I think he's got to keep the gas pedal pressed, but I think he's just got to keep doing what he's been doing.

Luca Wolf.

Luca Wolf needs to keep doing what he's doing, but he's a little banged up, going to miss a couple of days of practice.

So that's got to get back to the practice field.

How much, Austin, do you look at the fact that Tennessee was comfortable playing Van Dorslayer last year as much as they did as a freshman? Part of that was out of necessity because Kitzelman was banged up and Ethan Davis had banged up.
