The current University of Tennessee freshman and former Rivals.com four-star receiver is presently not allowed to practice after Williams' standardized test score, in this case the ACT, recently was flagged. The testing agency has granted Williams a retake of the exam, and that process is scheduled to take place early next week, no less than four sources told VolQuest.com.

For Williams, getting a special session scheduled to take the test potentially could help greatly expedite his return to the field --- as long as Williams records the necessary score. Multiple sources have said that Williams needs simply to score in the 18 range in order to be a qualifier.

Without getting a special session, which likely is to include just Williams and a proctor from the ACT service in the room, he was staring at a regularly scheduled ACT date of Sept. 12 and would have needed to be pre-registered by Friday. Anything thereafter would have required a late fee and also not a guaranteed spot for the test.

For me, the big question mark for the 2015 season is QB. We witnessed the spark in the Vols with Dobbs behind center. What if Dobbs gets hurt? Is there a QB on the roster who could step in and continue to propel the Vols O?

We don't know.

Hopefully one of the freshman will be ready...about the only option we have.

VQ QUICK HITS

Quote:
Everyone is going to be talking about Khalil McKenzie bulldozing Austin Sanders in one-on-one pass-pro drills. That was impressive, but considering the matchup, it was even more impressive to see Shy Tuttle definitively win his tilt with Marcus Jackson, pushing the senior several yards deep into the backfield and depositing him on the turf.
Quote:
Despite it being a skill players battle, Jauan Jennings impressed everyone and showed some toughness in the 'Circle of Life' drill, owning Justin Martin decisively in their matchup.

Derek Barnett was a total mismatch for Dontavious Blair in the drill, blowing around the corner and into the backfield with ease.

Drew Richmond notched back-to-back wins against Darrell Taylor while John Kelly overpowered Stephen Griffin. Richmond also more than held his own in a pass-rush set while Chance Hall got the best of Corey Vereen in 'Circle of Life.'
