2026 Transfer Portal Thread

[knoxvol52]

Every team is going to be looking to add snipers, so yea $2.7 mill is about market value ..

 

[Dougie_D]

If we are talking about shooters and what it could look like next year.

#14 ranked - Lundblade 3 point by attempts - 115/283

#20 ranked - Gillispie 3 point by attempts - 88/265

Next best 3 point shooters for TN and Belmont:

Nate - 42/127
Boswell - 23/59

Sam Orme - 48/121
Eoin Dillon - 50/112

Now we wait for Wilkinson to enter the portal.

Can Lundblade score in ways other than 3 point shots? His highlights are only 3’s.

Juke Harris and Jeremiah Wilkinson.

Win the whole thing.

Where did Wilkinson play at? Could not find anything from previous page on him. Thanks

Ga…was recruited to Cal by Assistant Coach Morrow…

 

[THEONLYTENISEE]

Is Wilkinson really going to let his son leave UGA?

 

[Col_Cathcart]

After last night, do we want anyone associated with UGA?

Ummm, is that a trick question????????

 

[strkr]

Ok thanks. I believe he had 30 points last night vs St. Louis?

 

[bleedingTNorange]

You’re thinking of Jake Wilkins, Dominique’s son…Jeremiah Wilkinson, who has no family ties to UGA, is who we are discussing.

Has there been talk of Kanon Catchings and Tennessee? Given who his aunt is, I’d think it might be a possibility.

If he enters the portal I would think Tennessee would be interested

 

[Chaz-Vol]

In the war room today mentioned (not surprising) looking for shooters in the portal and for starting PG and SG

 

[VolsNetClippers2025]

A shooting/stud point guard, Rice/Wilkinson, and Lundblade would be elite. If we only get two of those you're banking on more improvement from Boswell/Evans. Swap Carey for Catchings or similar and I would be over the moon.

 

[wtmvol]

Do we not also need to be actively seeking a stretch 4? Or are we banking on Estrella being healthy next year and able to fill that? Or maybe 1 of the incoming freshmen...

Is Freeman still in the mix?

I like our inside depth and experience returning, but Okpara is unique. Who becomes that fearless rim protector if we don’t get one?

He has a nice midrange game and scores on fadeaways. Doing it in the SEC presents a challenging jump in competition. As I said in another thread, he will remind people of Dalton Knecht from deep and from the midrange. But he doesn't have anywhere near DK's ability to get to the rim or athleticism.

He was brutal last night.

0-11 shooting, 0-5 from 3, with 3 TOs.

Obviously, he is better than that and we aren't making a decision based on one game. Just an off night for him.

Cade Phillips is a couple inches shorter, but has the athleticism and willingness to be that rim-protector. Health and foul discipline are a question marks, as is his ability to body up on bigger "true centers". I wouldn't mind finding a like-for-like Okpara replacement. Someone like a Somto Cyril if we are keeping the Georgia transfer theme going.

 

[cncchris33]

Has to enter the portal first, obviously. I'd think he and Catchings would be redundant. Probably only take 1 of those 2 if the options existed at some point.

Would kinda hope for Freeman ngl. Catchings offers way more shooting upside (somehow ignore tourney game lol), but going to have to find a way to replace some of the raw athleticism and defense that Okpara provided while only adding a 4 who can space the floor some. Cade will help with athleticism but Freeman would be a nice complement for Estrella/Brown imo.

Yeah, I'd probably agree if the need becomes less about shooting. If we address that albatross at the guard position, then I'd prefer Freeman. It's close for me, though. Catching brings another shooter to the floor. Also fair to wonder how much higher Freeman's ceiling is now that he's had a year to adjust to the level of play at the SEC level.
