That all sounds good but there's no guarantee any QB will wait his time to start. As long as the portal is around, everything is a crap shoot.

Maybe someone should consider making the portal only available in even numbered years.

Or maybe there should be actual contracts they have to sign and buyouts they have to pay.

If its going to be like this then there has to be some kind of repercussion they have to face.

Should see rush of commitments across the board due to school starting next week and players won’t have the leverage or time.
If I was in the portal I’d make an agreement for what campus I want to be on today or just start going over to work out with the HS players because half those portal’d wont have a team.
There’s a whole different topic of what happens to kids when they don’t have that team/support/coaching around them.
All this **** is just a breeding ground for bad decisions made for the wrong reasons and horrible habits formed.
-I didn’t play enough. I quit. Gonna go play over there. Oops. Another bad coaching staff they everywhere but I got paid and announce I’m in the portal again.-
Some are gonna be portaling from Taco Bell to Krystal in a couple years if they don’t wake up and seize an opportunity.

Update on DL

As reported appears Evans will go to Miss St and they made NIL offer that Vols simply felt was too high above their eval, plus still like other targets aa well. It is a BIG priority to get at least one big body portal guy

On that note Vols have spoken with contacts for both Green & Gray. Expect a visit from Tionne Gray to happen soon. Green is also a possibility but Gray is familiar with RG and Vols is on his list of teams his agent reached out to. Seems like Green's team is evaluating NIL more than having specific teams targeted at this point.

Another big body Enow Etta, not likely that visit will happen, the Vols like some other targets and his team is wanting a certain NIL amount in place before committing to a visit. Sounds like they are unhappy with where NIL evals are coming in & his portal recruitment has been slow beause of this. At this point staff beleives his whole intent was to get more money out of Michigan. Supposedly he will visit Washington later this week

Confidence level on Brewu is low with staff, they beleive it is ND, with Indiana in the picture and Vols in 3rd place. ND is beleived to have offered most $ and am told Vols would not move significantly on their NIL offer

feel like Mathis is very high on Vols but several teams working on visits, told just too early for them to have a read yet other than visit & follow up with his people went as well as you could hope

We need 2 big body DTs like Gray. Would be ideal.

I disagree. Robinson should be our 5th DT imo along with the remainder of the young guys. (Robinson is really not a DT imo).

I also prefer we get bigger, older DTs. Appears we have been going after younger guys for some reason when we already have boatload of them on the roster.

Sounds like we will get 1 more DT but I wish we would sign 2 more.

Robinson is enormous. If he puts on another 10 pounds, he's a large DT.
