-VqCould more be on the way? Chandler would immediately make Tennessee an attractive place to play for anyone who might be interested in playing with the top ranked point guard in the Class of 2021. Does his early decision sway Paolo Banchero, the No. 2 ranked player in the class? Or Jabari Smith, No. 5. Or Caleb Houstan, No. 9? Well, it certainly won’t hurt.
Not to mention the returning players such as: vescovi, Bailey, ticket, Corey Walker & more . Will be real fun for the next 3-4 years .Say Springer and Johnson are one and dones. Getting Chandler, Banchero, smith, and or Houstan would just replenish our roster. Potentially could have back to back elite teams.
-Rob Lewis.They will not be turning away any of the top guys they are recruiting. They have the three seniors but also very possible that they have an early departure or two for the draft. More than one person I have spoken to Who has been around workouts doesn’t think Keon Johnson will be in Knoxville next year unless he comes back to watch a game.
I like Tobias but to lift him to these heights........................
100%In the event that Banchero commits to Tennessee, would that be considered earth shaking news for us?
That's what I was thinking. Biggest coup in UT history?100%
Not to downplay Chandler, Josiah, Keon, Hopson etc...but Banchero is one of those Top 3 in a class guys, that if there wasn’t the college rule he would be going straight to the league. The closest thing we’ve had to that in the modern era was Tobias Harris, and Banchero is considered better than that...add in we would once again be beating out Duke and Kentucky for a recruit would also add something to it.
