Oh But Kenny We Hardly Knew Thee…and for that I’m Thankful
Posted by Thomas the Terrible on May 15, 2008
Junior wide receiver Kenny O’Neal will transfer to another school meaning one less piece of dead weight is gone from the team.
O’Neal, who began his career at F$U before coming to UT after playing one season at City College of San Francisco, struggled failed miserably with academics while at Tennessee. Look at him he literally looks stupid. However I bet he can dodge a bullet better than Matt Patchan. Ooohh yeah Gator fans I went there. If O’Neal couldn’t learn Cutcliffe’s 2 plays, he has no hope of success at another D-1 school.
He was declared academically ineligible for the Outback Bowl on Jan. 1 and missed all of spring practice in order to focus more on academics. Which really meant he was somewhere in between coloring between the lines and reading “See Dick Run” both of those combined are lite years ahead of Jerrell Powe.
“We excused Kenny from spring practice for the entire spring to get his academics in order,” Fulmer said last week when asked about O’Neal’s future with the Vols. “We’ll just to have to see how he comes out through finals. We should know any day now.”
Well apparently that day has come. I was never a fan of this guy.
A highly touted member of UT’s 2007 recruiting class, O’Neal finished his UT career with a whopping two receptions for 59 yards, including a 49-yard touchdown reception against Louisiana-Lafayette who Alabama LOST to. 
No Phil didn’t kill Kenny his lack of focus in the classroom and on the field did though.

Alabama lost to LaMo, er Louisiana-Monroe, 21-14 on 17 November 2007. Damn good game if you ask me.

Yea, Louisiana-Monroe. I don’t know if it’s necessarily all his fault. I mean, going to class? Sheesh. That’s for losers. But either the Vols didn’t do a good job of working him into the offense or as you intimated, he couldn’t learn thew plays.
