2026 Vols Transfer Portal Thread

[StickMan]

My take was Nate was a top 5 HS player and 5 star...as a HC the last thing you wanna do is imply that his one year with you hurt his draft stock. And Nate's production is the best of any true freshman under Barnes.

Not counting a guy by the name of KD. I know, I'm sure you meant at the real UT.

So...Poll: Who is the secret commit? 1) Lue, 2) Hastings, 3) Juke, 4) Ament, 5) Someone else (Name please)

Or a combo of the above.

Don’t think juke is such a secret

Considering he said we had a front court commitment and there has only been one visitor on campus, we can probably safely assume it’s Lue. I don’t think we have anything actually secretive.

Pushing him away

 

[VolArmy74]

The staff loves Nate, they want what's best for him.

Just read on Twitter (X or whatever) that Lue had his visit and that there is no timetable on his decision and that he has no other visits set up. Can’t remember who posted it but believe it was Ramey or Wilson. Doesn’t mean that he didn’t tell the staff his decision but they made it seem as if no decision was made. FWIW.

 

[Mullins2010]

Its all Ricks fault

It was a nice dream while it lasted. Oh well. It’s Juke or bust.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Also doesn’t sound like someone just going through the process and keeping the door open to return. He’s gone.

 

[VolOnthePlains]

You’ll never guess what I found at Twitter, the bad opinion factory, that backs up my bad opinion

Yeah better get Juke or hope Gillespie & Okpara get additional eligibility.

 

[JelloPuddinPup]

Oh no! Ament did what he’s supposed to do to keep evaluating his draft stock whether he returns or not!

Best of luck to him! Make us proud!

 

[CamVol8]

Gotta get Juke now if we want a chance at a Final 4

 

[JCP201]

Good luck to Nate. I will miss him.

But @Legion of Doom told us all he was coming back here?!

 

[SolidBean]

Legitimately do whatever it takes money wise to get juke I’m talking 8 million+. Just make sure he doesn’t get in the draft. If this is the last ride for Rick we need a roster that can get us the promise land (final four).

Pivot and sign Diop or Thiam

8 million for Juke?

HAHAHA.

No

Why not both
