After Worley's graduation, Dobbs should be set to step in and takeover the position full-time. SR WR Alton "Pig" Howard figures to again be the team's top target on the outside after catching 54 passes for 618 yards, but only 1 TD. Vols fans can look for fellow SR WR Von Pearson (393 yards, 5 TDs) to also make a contribution from the other side of the formation.

It is a pity Tittle never put the arm on a championship team, as a 49er or any of the other teams that he would play for over the next 7 years. A championship was his “white whale.”
