FWIW...Tyler Baron to Jets

[IndianaVol]

FWIW...Baron picked by the Jets with the last pick of the 5th round.

Not sure he improved his draft stock.by transferring to Miami last year.

Glad to see he did make it to the league though...best of luck.

Cool maybe he will hold out 3 years in a row there too

Yeah, I was trying to take the high road with my post...guy has some issues he needs to overcome to be elite league player.

Could have bolted in 2021 with the coaching change but stayed around. Spent 4 years on the hill. Football is such a physically demanding sport and can’t blame him for seeking more money his final year. Wish him the best.

 

[Hacksaw]

He left. Don't care.

Not your fault I'm just burnt out of people who leave the Vols. I'm happy for the outcome. Just don't like the way it happened.

He can thank CRG! If he stays at TN, under CRG’s tutelage he’s a round 2 pick.

I said it when he left, I think he may regret the decision later in life being a hometown kid. He gave up his VFL status and won't be welcome back after burning that bridge. Wish him the best in the NFL.

I think he graduated. He did his time for us when we were bad and probably could left and made more. Stay classy vols

Good post. Thanks for the reminder. I find myself getting upset as well, then remember we welcome them here when they leave their previous school. Big Nic and his family will always be the exception imo. They did it the wrong way.

Didn't he go to Ole Miss first?

 

[Blackburn]

He was a VFM...Vol For Money.

He left. Don't care.

If not for Covid, he would have gone in the draft after playing four years here. Probably has a degree from UT.

Louisville I think.

 

[VolBallGuy]

I’d rather eat a bag of stale chips than to ever see his name again quite frankly.

Louisville I think.

Actually he first committed to Ole Miss then flipped to Louisville after Ole Miss signed a couple other transfers on the DL. There were also rumors of an NIL dispute with Ole Miss. Then he and Wesley Walker supposedly caused locker room problems at Louisville by bragging about NIL to the other players so the Louisville coach told him to hit the road and he then went to Miami. I think Walker went to Michigan. Not the first to cause locker room problems because of NIL and definitely not the last.
