Title: Re: Looks like Kirkland is gone Post by: SmokeyJoe on May 25, 2018, 02:54:16 EDT I know he showed flashes, but never had the opportunity to flourish because of injury. Could be better for both parties. Also, I think UT ultimately gets Kennedy from bama 👍
Title: Re: Looks like Kirkland is gone Post by: VinnieVOL on May 25, 2018, 03:25:00 EDT Hard not to think what could've been, but I barely even remember him playing for us... He was out so much.
Title: Re: Looks like Kirkland is gone Post by: Tnphil on May 25, 2018, 03:33:31 EDT Hate to see him go....but not sure he fit in the 3-4 defense. Wish him the best.
Title: Re: Looks like Kirkland is gone Post by: BanditVol on May 25, 2018, 11:47:28 EDT Was very good when he did play, seems like a loss, but Pruitt does know defense. I expect a big improvement in our D, which isn't saying much.
Anyway, good luck Mr. Kirkland. Title: Re: Looks like Kirkland is gone Post by: Black Diamond Vol on May 28, 2018, 11:36:51 EDT Hmm. Not so fast?🤞

Title: Re: Looks like Kirkland is gone Post by: BanditVol on May 29, 2018, 07:20:30 EDT Word is Kirkland and Pruitt had a long talk....It will be a plus if he doesn't transfer. Yeah, I hope so. I was thrown off by some of the comments above implying he didn't do much anyway due to injury. That was true in 16 and 17, but when I looked back into it in detail, in 2015 he had a monster season. I'd love to keep him in Orange. Title: Re: Looks like Kirkland is gone Post by: PirateVOL on May 29, 2018, 04:26:55 EDT He's staying with the VOLS!

Really glad he's staying though. :thumbup: |
