2025/26 Transfer Portal Thread

[Sandman Vol]

Sham showed a lot of promise and stepped up when called upon imo. Wasn’t perfect, but I think he has a chance to take a big step this offseason and be a big piece for us next year.

Hope so. Though his stats say he’s big enough, his body still looks to me like there’s room to add mass. Would love to see him put on another 15 of good weight.

 

[seaofORANGE22]

Hope you are right bc we will need him to.

Agreed. I still think we need to add somebody. But I like how Perry gives us a lot of flexibility.

Not even worth 500k

We have a reserve who is being offered pretty close to that amount and he's in the portal

 

[jasonvol18]

so was sanders

He's the exception, not the rule. Osenda isn't even a consensus 5* like Sanders was.

 

[UpstateVol613]

In hindsight smart of Bama to kick the field goal to avoid the shutout.

 

[GVol1966]

true freshman lol

330 lb true freshman. True freshman start and play, some really good, it happens.
lol

Everyone should notice, not a lot of AA starters that are transferring from the big schools...I mean if I saw Jeremiah Smith or even smaller schools like Owen Long or Tengesdahl from Cincinnati I would jump but it seems a lot of good names but starters are a little few and far from between....

We will fill in some holes but I really like the last 2 recruiting classes and think we can fill some major holes with guys we already have...

We only took one last year( Sanders). We may only have 3 tackles currently on roster and one of them (Heard) is looking like a project. Going to have to go to the portal.

I thought both Heards were portalling?

Maybe Ginther is a swing T/G and maybe Blair can come in ready to contribute some snaps. May be hard to convince a quality OT to come in and be a backup. They may get someone and tell new guy and Perry they are battling for RT

 

[LaagerVol]

ummm Gabe Osenda? The five star we just got?

I could see Blair being ready before Osenda honestly

Which is why he's in the portal.

Martinez is out

Martinez is out

I believe he loved Martinez

 

[UTK]

I believe he loved Martinez

Love is a stretch but he got too much hate. He’s developed CBs and put them in the league over the years. At the end of the day, our DC needs to get his guys and pick who is and isn’t on that side of the ball.

he's developed CB's one or two every 3-4 years or so. Rest of DB play is dogshit.

Yep..Thank God!

Willie Martinez and Tennessee Football Part Ways

The Tennessee Volunteers have been in the middle of many departures and off-season news that has kept them at the top of many people's headlines. This includes

This

Very soon we will know if they are truly diff this time or if its the same ol slow play business

 

[UTK]

He only coaches cbs from my understanding. At least under CJH. Can’t put saftey play and star on him to be fair.

It’s like he focuses on one DB to improve and that’s it.

 

[Memphisvol87]

It’s like he focuses on one DB to improve and that’s it.

His best player was a transfer. He didn’t coach up anyone. None of his dudes are worth a damn.
