2025 Transfer Portal Thread

Well I'm sure that the largest chunk will go to football but DW takes pride in UT being an everything school and will spread plenty of funding around. We have always put tons of money into athletic programs and are one of the best collegiate athletic programs in the country. That won't change any time soon, especially not with more money available. It opens up more for everyone/everything.

You clearly haven’t been paying attention. It’s unacceptable to be “one of the best collegiate athletic programs” - we have to be the best.

Again, you’re completely missing the point. Nike pays Jordan for endorsements because they MAKE money on those endorsements. 100% of NIL deals LOSE money because they are a shell game to get a kid to play at your school. There are no examples of profitable NIL deals for the money source. Does a local commercial selling mufflers have some value? Yes. Is that value hundreds of thousands of dollars, millions? No. Donors and local businesses want to present the illusion of a fair value transaction. Their sole intent is one thing— getting the kid on their team.

Edit: nvm, I don’t want any part of this discussion

Thoughts?

edit…..sorry , haven’t been keeping up. I see what is going on now.

Darrion Williams has withdrawn from the draft. Just saw it come across On3.

Rich man's offensive version of JJJ in our system. Capable shooter who can get hot like JJJ, but a more willing offensive player in the paint and going to the basket.

A bit of toughness is always welcome especially if it has an offensive pulse and shows up routinely.

I'm gonna hold out hope that this particular like wasn't purely just a sign of agreement with my in-depth analysis

I don’t think we can afford him

 

[CamVol8]

So we still getting a commitment today?

 

[cncchris33]

Probably not, but I'd have said the same thing about Ament before we got him, too.

There were many saying that whole recruitment Barnes loved him and we would have the money for him, I don’t think that’s the case with Williams

Been watching 2021-22 highlights, seeing ZZ and Chandler together, certainly possible for ZZ and Gillespie to thrive. I like this:

Starters: Ziegler / Gillespie / Ament / Carey / Okpara
Rotation: Gainey / Abram / Phillips / Estrella
Spot Minutes: Boswell / Evans / Massamba
Development/Reserve: Henderson / Hurst / Brown

Really talked myself into ZZ/Gainey both back, the more I think about it.

That’s 9 guys who would all start on a lot of teams. Love that.

He took the strong-ass offer.

 

[TrippieRedd]

yeah I’m picking NCST to get to the final 4

NCST
FL
Purdue

Early 3 of my 4 right now

Not picking Florida. They have a lot of turnover. If Vols get ZZ back they are ahead of Gators. Fland is no Walter Clayton.
