True on Evans, but he's more experienced than any player we have. Maybe he wants to prove something, and will have a good season. He and ka are interchangeable for me towards the end of the season, it could be either one.To start the season.
Turner
Mostella
Hubbs
AS
KA
Phillips
Parker
Evans
Williams
Bone
Johnson
Fulk.
Parker will move to sixth man or starter by years end. He has too much talent. If Evans is starting we are in trouble. He is coming to be a role player. He only started 16 games for a bad USU team. AS had about the same stats as a true freshman playing better comp. I don't see Evans starting over him or Alexander. Don't count out Grant Williams down low either. He will play a lot. He has already produced versus big time talent.

Unless he gets injured or suspended or TN adds another player (Yurtseven) then it's a near certainty that Evans will be a starter all
year. If Alexander has crazy improvement, he could take the Evans or Schofield spot, but that would surprise me. Experience is very important for players at that age. Hubbs or Mostella could sleep walk and lose a spot... Alexander and Evans at 4/5 and Schofield moves to a small forward/wing.
IMO Evans won't be a role player... he'll be the best player in the paint.

Why would a [player that was average vs eak competition be better now? AS will be our best. He matched what Evans did as a true fr in the SEC. Williams will surprise some people too. I think people are hyping and overrating Evans way too much. He is a one year stop gap role player. He isn't coming in to take minutes from players developing for the future.
Wow, that's bold!
Jerry Meyer says he is the most SEC ready of any signee for the Vols in this class.
Maybe not as bold of a prediction by me as many would think. People are sleeping on him because he is a local kid who's stock didn't rise until late in the process.
I think he is better than or as good as a handful of guards who got a lot of starts for us last year.
