2025/26 Transfer Portal Thread

I think compared to Indiana if you do some napkin math and assumptions of age we'll be just short of 21 years for our 2 deep versus their 23. That's counting some of the guys Eric has cited.

I like the experience levels though and talent.

-Nakos

Unreal. 2 top pass rushers in the portal, which is arguably our biggest need and have the least depth . We are nowhere to be found

These things change on a dime

Don’t think we’d be going in home today if we thought there was no shot

Idk about their 2 deep specifically but

 

[ALLVOL 4LIFE]

And most of our fans were right here lobbying for him to get more PT. He was clearly the best athlete. Banks blew it

Might have blew something else

Can’t think of anything else.

 

[PowerT.]

Damon Wilson at LSU today

 

[RiseToTheTop]

anybody that chooses Shane Beamer right now is not serious at all.

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Staff can’t close

 

[TrippieRedd]

Dang no Chaz and we gonna end up with Pribula?

Send me coaches address

 

[Dadof2Vols]

He was gonna take his football and go home?

For me, I believe his story, Banks was not competent when it came to talent ala turnentinue being on field.

If it was just money, why would his mom drive to Knoxville in middle of night or you can just believe he made up the whole story,

He has definitely showed to be better than what we had on field last year which makes his story more believable.

But that’s just me.

Maybe chill and let things play out

They’re spending serious money. Coleman might give them 3 of the top 10 highest paid players in the country.

Ah, I gotcha Normally can only tell if people use the blue font, but that probably says more about me than it does others

 

[csheaton]

We have to get either one of Chaz or Leavitt, otherwise this portal class will not be seen as successful.

 

[BbwVol]

So how much do we trust Nakos

Sure they are

You need a blue font default…

 

[Gilbert]

Edge is a huge need so I’d overpay for that position if that’s what it takes. If that means missing on Leavitt, then so be it. We won’t pay for any of them though imo. I think they like us a lot but will choose the bigger bag in the end.

-Nakos

Damon is strictly a bag chaser so whatever.

Chaz wants to go to OSU, but their bag is light.

Chaz doesn't want to go to USC and USC has had to bribe him to let them visit. You even read here. They went to him.

UT is better place than USC and better bag than OSU.

Am I wrong on that - our approach is to be the best overall @SmyrnaATLVolisback or @Ericvol2096?

 

[volbeast33]

Idk about their 2 deep specifically but

They stated last night that Indiana only rotates 13 guys on defense.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Hard to build depth these days, but UT had better load up wherever they can, but especially the secondary. This is UT...injuries always come where we can least afford them. How many times does a team lose not one but BOTH starting corners before a single game is in the books? Yeah take as many as we can afford and convince to sign.

We will be getting a new S&C coach

 

[TrippieRedd]

Suddenly Jordan Moore seems equivalent to Zylan Perry when you think about who we’ve lost.

 

[BleedOrange16]

It’s hard to trust Nakos on Chaz knowing others are saying we may lead and the fact that we’re sending Heupel and defensive staffers into the home today to try and close the deal.

It’s also been reported Chaz seems to have faded on OSU… by OSU people.

I’d say let it play out before we panic
