Eh. Easy come, easy go. I don't really have a strong reaction either way to the news. I'm glad he was there, sure, but he's gone about as soon as he showed up, so. That's the game now.

I do wonder if Redmond will come back to the table a la Gibson and put a little squeeze on UT for more money at some point before the spring. He was already in a position to push for more money, and with Hood and McCoy gone, stands to reason his hand is even stronger now. As with every other situation where Tennessee is facing a price hike, I hope it doesn't hamstring UT's ability to make whatever other moves it needs to during the offseason.

You better believe it, and we’ve got no choice but to pay

Best of luck to Colton who will be an all time Vol favorite. This man is a winner and will make an NFL GM look good for his selection. Will be fun to follow his career.

Does this narrative change any with the new DC? Does he have some guys he prefers over Redmond etc?

It is possible we could have 2 1st round DBs this year. McCoy is getting 1st round projections despite not playing
just once I want us to have two CB's and a safety that can wreak havoc. Goodness, had we Hood and Mccoy, and a have way defent safety.

No..we did not have McCoy and Hood.
We had Hood because of McCoy

And now both are being drafted in the same class. Very odd situation

Ohio State is the last school to have 2 corners drafted in the first round in the same year in 2020 (Jeff Okudah and Damon Arnette).

Would be a huge 🪶 in our cap on the recruiting trail to show if you come to Tennessee, you can be successful on the defensive side of the šŸˆ

To your point, we don’t have Hood if McCoy was šŸ’Æ percent. Definitely odd situation to say the least.
