Poor Jalen..... Saban ruining that kid.

Edit: If I were Hurts and I didn't agree with Saban burning my Redshirt, I'd ask for a transfer now.

Notice in the article ā€œI talked to Jalen and heā€™s ALL TEAMā€. ā€œI want to play.ā€ One side of that conversation. šŸ˜

Not sure I heard right, definitely need confirmation if we can get it...but, Joey Kent was on 104.5, and I believe they said Tee would be on his show tomorrow. Maybe that means he'll be in town?! I hope so.

No sense arguing with Hank about ā€œit.ā€ He doesnā€™t believe in ā€œit.ā€ Players are simply machines who produce stats to their average with no mental understanding of the game situation. No player is clutch and no player freezes up. Mind-numbed robots they are.

I bet that is what he will do.

If he transferred after this weekend, he wouldnā€™t be eligible until his new teamā€™s fourth game next season...UNLESS thatā€™s different with grad transfers.

Even if he still retains a redshirt? Wouldn't that kind of defeat the new rule?

Edit: Wouldn't that be like him finishing the season as a redshirt and transferring and getting to play immediately next year?

If he goes the traditional transfer route? Thatā€™s how it worked with Preston Williams. He wasnā€™t eligible at Colorado State until after the same number of games he had participated in with the Vols. Became a moot point when he got suspended. Iā€™m not sure how Hurts can pull the graduate transfer rabbit out of a hat if he transfers BEFORE he graduates. Now Butch worked with Boulware and he left the team but still finished his classes. Think Saban would accommodate that option? šŸ˜‰

Can you link that Preston williams wasn't going to have to sit out an entire year?

I don't believe that but want to give you the benefit of the doubt before saying that's wrong

Initially he was rumored to be going the Blake Barnett route...through JC. He transferred straight so he had to sit out 2017. Youā€™re right.

The experience of Neyland has to be passed down to the next generations. Just like how I experienced my first games, I am taking my 8 year old to his first one for homecoming. I want my son to enjoy what I fell in love with. Even going for homecoming (not as intense and other activities) with my son and my Dad will cost $600+. Two nights in a hotel, game tickets, gas from Memphis, and just reasonable food. Just wait until he falls in love with it and wants to go to UT-Bama in 2020, and the tickets are through the roof. It gets expensive for families, but it's something that I will spend the money to enjoy.

That's awesome if you can afford it. I have to figure out how to do it on the cheap. My wife and girls could not care less about sports. My son usually goes with me and my brothers, and sometimes Dad when he is feeling up to it.

I get to take about 1-2 good trips a year, and as much as I love the Vols...I don't love them as much as I do the awesome beautiful nature we have in the US. My family does this together because we all love it.

Ok thanks

I still want to get a clear understanding of the juco thing. I think it just means they graduated from the juco but maybe there is more to that

Tyler bray just wasnā€™t a great player. It has nothin to do with some mythical thing called ā€œit factorā€.

I know Iā€™m in the minority probably in this but i just think itā€™s a really easy and lazy take when a player wins or loses mainly.

Graduating is the requirement of course. Thatā€™s why when Preston was rumored to be contemplating that move many doubted it would work...considering his difficulties entering Tennessee. Prolly why it didnā€™t happen.

I feel you. I have to drive 8 1/2 hrs. A trip to go to Neyland for my 4 is close to 1k + and thatā€™s for nosebleed seats. Thatā€™s why I hardly go. Hoping to go to the Kentucky game this year, just donā€™t know if itā€™s feasible.

Those with a CAC or MIL ID, don't forget the VOLS normally do a November military appreciation game with free tickets. For TN-NG it used to be handled through RRB Marketing but it may be POA nowadays. Ask the VOLS ticket office about it.
