Trey Smith Press Conference

Toss up medical may be too big of a concern for team physicians whereas if he comes back and completes a full year his draft stock would go up. If he knows for sure though he can go get paid and paid well then he leaves

I don't know the kid's family situation, but he'll be a consensus top ten pick (and possibly top five) if he comes back and stays healthy for a year. Right now he's likely a late first round at best. That's the difference in about 25-27 million.

Maybe Atlanta Vol will drop in and give us the scoop, Doubt it...
I can help ya. Inside source says their inside source heard in passing that Trey used the solar hijri calendar instead of the Gregorian one and had his phone set on Kiribati time zone when scheduling his presser so no one really knows for sure when its going to be but there is a 50% chance he returns or stays.

one of the grading services said he graded out as the 14th best guard. I find that hard to believe but if it's true, he could end up 3rd or 4th round. If that is a true projection, he will probably come back. If the other information I saw was true and he is a first round or early second round, I would think he's gone.

If you're right, and he's a second-round pick he'd be an absolute steal for a team like Cincinnati who is going to take Burrow and then could draft a top-five talent in the second round. You get a QB of the future and a ten-year offensive lineman in your first two picks. Wow. Even a team like the Dolphins could get three first round picks (including Tua) and then turn around and get Trey Smith in the second and it would be like a de facto top-five pick again. Great for the team, but maybe not so great for Smith.

We know this. There is no wrong decision for him.

True, whatever he is comfortable with is the way to go.

There is actually a 100% chance he returns or stays.
 
WHY would you have a press conference just to get everyone worked up and then DISAPPOINT them? Most kids that turn pro just let the media guy know and they put a press release out. I wouldn't want to stand up there with a bunch of people HOPING I come back and then disappoint them.
Doesn't make a bit of sense to me.

Not sure what big Trey is going to do but reading your post reminded me of The Shuler Press conference.
 
I think since he is having a press conference .. he is gonna try play 3 or 4 years in nfl and call it quits ... get financially secure and go on with life ... I can't blame him at all .. thank you Trey for your desire to be a Vol .. and the guts you displayed .. and heart .. you are quiet a man .. VFL
 
Mel Kiper has rated Trey as the 6th best Guard in the nation.

Guards are alot less valuable than Tackles.

In 2019, the 6th Guard taken was pick #131 (4th Round).

If I'm Trey, the math is simple: Stay in school and try to raise my stock.
Do you know what the pay difference would be between a late 1st round vs a 4th round? I'd imagine it is a huge difference..

The location may confuse some due to MGRS not aligning with Lat/Long on the JOG map

Most logical response so far.
 
Tomorrow at 1ET/Noon Ct we will know the answer on Treys future

Will he stay or go? Tennessee announces upcoming press conference for Trey Smith
Why would he have a presser if he was coming back. He gone. Amazing considering the linemen returning to Bama are projected much higher.
