    4 Possible QBs from The Portal

    I’m already a little portal weary, and was trying to show humor at a QB hoping to sign with his 7th FBS program. I doubt Heupel would be interested in Finley for the reason you mentioned.

    4 Possible QBs from The Portal

    Shut it down. Got the perfect portal QB. TJ Finley, 6’7” and 250 lbs., is applying for a medical redshirt so he can play for his 7th school in 7 years. Previously, he was QB1 at LSU, Auburn, the Texas State Armadillos, Western Kentucky, and Georgia State. He also attended Tulane in early 2025...

    '26 MS LB TJ White (Tennessee)

    Harmon played in every game this year including Special Teams. Staff never intended to redshirt him.

    '26 TX ATH Legend Bey

    Averaged 13 yards per carry for an entire season from the QB position. That’s pretty good, right?

    Article on Vol Safety Jourdan Thomas

    VERY nice story, although tough regarding Thomas’ playing career. https://utsports.com/news/2025/11/26/football-joy-in-the-journey-jourdan-thomas-turns-pain-into-purpose

    Florida = Cupcake Game

    I’ll take Florida +19 points if you want to put your $ where your mouth is. The Vol players & coaches don’t have any fear over playing Florida in the Swamp or wherever. But this Vol team isn’t a juggernaut, in case you somehow haven’t realized it. And Florida is an SEC team, and can withstand...

    '26 AL EDGE Hezekiah Harris (Tennessee)

    And not only is Defense in his genes, but Heupel also won a National Championship as a player when OU beat FSU and Bobby Bowden’s shiny Offense by a score of 13 to 2. No doubt Heupel appreciates & wants an elite Defense here. PS. That’s “genes”, not “jeans”. Can’t speak to Heupel’s jeans. 😎

    Jermod McCoy- 2025 Sporting News First Team All-American

    I’ve seen several great Safeties play for the Vols. But, I don’t think I’ve seen better CB play for the Vols as McCoy had last year. His pass coverage is excellent. I became a big fan when he wrestled down, more like hog tied, the 250 lb NC State TE short of a 1st down. Looks like most NFL...

    '26 MS WR Tristen Keys (Tennessee)

    3,000 passing yards in SEC play is 23% MORE than the top passing team in the SEC last year, Ole Miss. Your expectation seems a little high. Either that, or I’m high.

    Vols Fall Practice #4

    I’ve wondered the same thing myself. Kitselman and Davis might be used together in a two TE set, with Davis “flexed out” wide. I think this is especially likely if we run into a few injuries at WR during the season. And Brame and Van Dorselaer bring talented depth. We have talent & depth at...

    ESPN may pay SEC $50-$80 mill more per year if it adds 9th conference game

    This. I can’t access the NYT article, but it seems it would only yield a max. of $3 Million to $5 Million per school in TV revenue, AND would likely require each school to give up a home game every other year. If above is fairly accurate, the SEC schools should definitely hold out for more $...

    Was Cooper Mays the last VFL?

    The Vols still have Bryson Eason and Dom Bailey who I believe arrived a year ahead of Cooper Mays. Heupel seems big on loyalty and team, etc. I appreciate that. But, in this current Free Agent market, it’s disappointing that sometimes the reward for trying to grow from within the team is to be...

    Numbers?

    Per the 2023 agreement, the NCAA docked the Vols 28 scholarships, but gave the Vols credit for 16 scholarships the Vols didn’t award in the 2021-2022 & 2022-2023 school years. Besides scholarship reductions, Heup/Staff have been dealing with reductions in official visits, player evaluations and...

    Is Brandon Huntley Hatfield one and done?

    BHH just entered the portal again. But, he’s out of NCAA eligibility unless/until the NCAA approves a 5th year for basketball players. It’s interesting how bad Louisville & NC State both were while BHH was with those programs. Coincidence? Louisville was 12-52 during BHH’s 2 seasons there, and...
