I'm not a stickler for titles
Although there will likely be someone else
I agree that these titles are somewhat scary - and I am someone who has written a bad title.
Now the rest in response to the original post. With respect to Gallon, if he can stay healthy, then I would bet he contributes. But if he does not contribute in his RS Frosh year, hopefully some will not "give" up on him. Some take more time to be ready to contribute at the college level.

I hear that
I was anticipating a coming-of-age story about Jeremy Gallon, only to find it was just some guy asking a question. Thanks for getting my hopes up, fake storyteller.

I heard that he was one of the wingless players in fall camp. Anyone know any thing about this? I hope it's not true, since I was hoping for a coming out party for him this fall.
It wouldn't matter
All the wingless players have their wings back now. Rodriguez was looking for several consecutive solid practices out of guys who weren't in shape yet. I think it was something to the extent of: "If you didn't arrive to camp in shape to handle two a days, then you don't get wings till you've knocked off that rust and can keep up."
Now everyone can.
Actually, if he was wingless,
Actually, if he was wingless, it would matter. Jeremy Gallon showed up to school out of shape last year. If he was out of shape this year, that'd be two years in a row. Not a good track record...
You heard wrong
And now you have painted him in an unfavorable light...

Over on the rivals paywall message board...
...one of the mods is saying someone else has left the team after a poor summer, and many posters are guessing it's Gallon. Pure 100% speculation, please wait until a real source (i.e. not Melanie Collins) publishes something before you start freaking out.
If someone quit and if it is Gallon, that would be disappointing.

In response to a poster's guess that it was Gallon because the weekly ITF mentioned Tay Odoms was returning punts because someone wasn't ready to.
The new popular guess is Austin White.
I put up a tough front, but deep down I just want to be held.

I wonder
how much attrition other programs face in the summer? I don't follow anyone like I do Michigan, so I have no idea - are the departures from the team running at a typical rate?
UM is higher
Florida and FSU have faced 1-2... thing is high profile universities with kids recruited by "names" are going to face pissed off kids when they're low on the depth chart, feel they're better and think "those guys probably would have started me." but UM is still facing higher than others.
Very common actually.
Very common actually. Florida lost two guys just this week.
Austin White
I've heard from a pretty reliable source (not a hot chick) that the player is indeed Austin White.
I always hate to see players leave, but in this case I don't think it will affect us at all--present or future. He was a lock to redshirt in the first place, and now we have an extra scholarship to accommodate Hart and another back (a Hayes decommit, perhaps?). Granted, this scenario is under the assumption that we impress some recruits with our performance this season.
I had a close friend who knew White from high school. He predicted that White would fizzle out rather early, but wow, 2 weeks into camp?
Ah, the fall from grace
The joy of securing the recruit to now bashing him... Aint it great to be a fickle fan...

I just want to know
If Gallon wears #10 on his jersey, would his helmet be a 10 Gallon hat?

Thank you very much. Try the prime rib and please tip your waitress. I'll be here all week.
Gallon is a tough dude
I liked in the spring game when he just trucked someone.

Steve Smith is the first name that comes to mind when I watch Jeremy Gallon play. I think of a short ninja who can still go deep and catch the bomb over a larger defender or grab a short one and pick up tons of YAC.
No excuses. Play like a champion.
he did
look pretty decent in that spring game.

our package is our package, and it’s pretty big. - Greg Mattison, Bowl Practice Presser Tr. 12-13-11.
I wish Gallon was big enough to be an effective D1 corner...
He was a QB and safety in HS; I would imagine that he could learn any DB position pretty quickly.
Maybe there is a place for a supposedly 5-8 DB in the current defense.
I'm not a stickler for titles usually, but after Turner and Woolfolk can you please make it more informative(i.e How is Gallon coming along)? My first thought was no, not someone else
