2026 Vols Transfer Portal Thread

[The Dog]

Tanner's size is a liability in the NBA, and that will prevent him from getting much lottery consideration in a very talented and top heavy 26 NBA draft. Next year's class is weaker, and he may be better positioned in that draft. Kennedy Chandler is a similar story, and we see how that turned out. He'll be able to make more money this year in college than the bottom of the first or second round pick contract he'd get from the NBA this year.

Agree. Btw, Chandler had 31 points, 7 boards, 8 assists and 2 steals for the tanking Utah Jazz, last night

Michigan met with Juke Harris today.

Assuming virtual.

Michigan met with Juke Harris today.

Why would he want to go to that dump?

Don't Henderson and Ament have a connection from their time playing high school ball?

Played AAU together

I wish we could move all the superfalous posts to an NIL thread and keep this to actual Vol prospects

 

[MoCo_Vol]

If that’s what it takes to know if a player will fit in our style of play I’m even more worried about having to replace an entire roster

...

Staff know exactly how JP fits into our style of play and were going to continue to use him that way. It is JP that wasn't sure until playing for a full season under Barnes.

G- Troy Henderson – So.- 6’1 – (Tennessee) - $250K – 1.8 ppg

Well we tried

We can out bid them

 

[bleedingTNorange]

Michigan met with Juke Harris today.

That would be a violation

 

[Ryno14]

That would be a violation

When has that ever stopped them?

 

[RyanWalkerPGH]

That would be a violation

I assume virtual

 

[bleedingTNorange]

I assume virtual

Yes likely, same for a bunch of other schools

 

[cwbytruckers]

we need to go over seas and find us a 7'2 big man that can dominate

That's the first time I've heard of that. I had only read that teams are offering him basically double what the Vols are.

Rick might as well retire if that's the list

 

[All Vol!]

He’s supposedly visiting Louisville this weekend but doesn’t mean he won’t visit multiple places. But if we’ve learned anything in past cycles with big names, it’s important to be the first to get a guy on campus.

Perhaps more important to be the last.

This has to be a troll post, right?

He better cut it out or back to the G-League he goes.
