Tennessee receiver Kenny O'Neal has decided to transfer to another school, Vols head coach Phillip Fulmer announced Tuesday. No reason was given for his departure. O'Neal, a junior college transfer from San Francisco City College, played in 12 games for the Vols last year. The San Ramon, Calif., native caught two passes, including a 49-yard touchdown catch against Louisiana-Lafayette.

The reason is pretty obvious. He only caught two passes on a team where they lost so much at wide receiver the year before that any WR should have gotten a number of extra balls thrown his way.

O'neal never learned the offense last year. If he was in the game he either ran an end-around or a fly route (thus the two receptions). With the installation of the new offense the word on the street is that he was just way, way behind eveyone else. There were some academic issues as well--remember he was suspended for the Outback Bowl.

At any rate, I hope he does well wherever he catches on. Talented kid, just apparently not that bright.

I couldn't believe it, so I had to look it up...this is the same Kenny O'Neal that got booted from FSU. I think this kid just MIGHT have some issues. Check out his journey through HS and now college.

If he has grade issues he may end up at Ohio State!
