2026 Vols Transfer Portal Thread

[Franklin_Vol09]

TT can drag this out longer by going into the portal. He can always go back to Vandy.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Well one of you please hurry up and deliver Tanner and Juke and Larry Bird and Michael Jordan?

 

[VolGee4]

Haugh returning to Florida next year

News like this continues, and Ament is almost a lock to be top 12.

I had a similar thought this morning, if he’s truly torn he can enter the portal and let this thing play out even longer. Plenty of guys return, nothing saying he can’t.

 

[Yeiser10]

Maybe they will lose the coach to the Warriors

Just a gut feeling, but if we get him in the portal then I think we have him. Taking that step and dealing with whatever fallout comes with it is the hard part.

Yall are an interesting bunch. A few days ago, I was a Vandy troll. Tony carries Barnes’ water way too much for my taste.

This can only mean… Tony Basilio is actually a Vandy troll. What a turn of events!!

Exactly. Said something similar earlier today

 

[CamVol8]

We’re definitely going to need Juke and another big to compete with Florida next year

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Unpopular opinion, but Ament never showed me enough before the injury to be completely sure he can be elite next year.

Rewatch these games
at Bama
at Kentucky
vs Oklahoma
vs Ole Miss
SECT vs Auburn

 

[Legion of Doom]

Juke, Tanner, and Thiam and we are set.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

If Tanner does enter, then he has quite literally waited till the 11th hour. Time is ticking.

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

I don’t think I have ever disagreed more with an opinion in this thread, lol.

Surely you’re just saying this because he’s probably not coming back, so that means “we don’t want him anyway!”, right?

Nope. I am not completely sure he will be elite. He was a volume shooter. Missed a ton of bunnies. Got a 5 star whistle. I would rather have Juke.

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

Take courage, friend, many bad and wrong opinions are unpopular in their time.

Lol. Fair. And I really like Ament. I hope he is a perennial NBA All Star.

 

[PackersVols91]

Then Billy D back to uf

Think when enters or if , think it going be secret type thing . No one know till he commits to us like sf said he enters portal he is ours

It definitely will not be a secret if he enters. That’s going to leak out almost immediately. My gut tells me it’s not happening but praying i’m wrong

If he enters, he will get swarmed by people asking him over and over what his plans are. He doesn’t seem like the type that would like that. I think if he enters, it will be quietly and we would get very good news soon after.

 

[Legion of Doom]

Yeah I am hoping Barnes and company talking to other top talent if thsy have a set amount that was going to him.

 

[Mountvol]

Yeah if it happens it will be immediately news. Too many people have access to the transfer portal for it to be a secret. Additionally it would make sense for his agent to leak it out ASAP to get other schools coming to the table to squeeze as much as youn can out of this payday

 

[CamVol8]

I guess Christian Anderson is waiting till the last second too, to enter

 

[VolsCigarMan]

Ament needs to come back to school and get stronger and develop more imo. He is nowhere even close to being an NBA player right now with his strength and will get pushed around right now which we all saw he got pushed around at times in SEC play. He will be a very good NBA player with added strength no doubt and he is very talented no doubt but some of these kids want to rush it and aren't ready. I wish him the absolute best in whatever path he chooses.

Look at Keon Johnson, Springer and Chandler. None were ready and all 3 have either sat on the bench or bounced around G-League. I think Springer and Johnson needs to go overseas to savage whatever career they have left and Chandler just now finally signed with a NBA team but who knows if it will last long.

 

[Col_Cathcart]

I think Tanner is afraid of the harassment he will get from all the vandy fans and most people in Nashville surrounding area .

There are more vol fans in Nashville than vandy fans

 

[Franklin_Vol09]

I wish there was a way to direct message people on here again. I have slightly different (but inconsequential) information than some here on TT and it would be nice to piece some things together without publicly exposing info and sources.
