Cooper Mays not going through senior day

[Vol_sanity]

Per twitter, would be huge

 

[ThemDawgsIsHell]

One more year.

One more year.

Weird to see a dawg here

 

[Volsfaninva917]

That's a start in the right direction, would be huge for next year

 

[shane80]

Hope this means he's coming back. Would be huge for this O-line.

Would have to think he’s planning on it if not participating, right?

I would think so

 

[Just a VolinTears]

Coop has poured out his all for the Vols. We should give him anything to ensure he returns

 

[JMSqb11]

We have nice size behind this year’s starters. Really would be nice for them to get stronger and be anchored by Cooper.

 

[RDU VOL#14]

That’s a big start to the offseason. That’s a big piece of the puzzle heading into next season. Hopefully he’ll get healthy as need be all second semester and be ready to go for late spring, early summer

 

[Smokey7]

This and a five star recruit on that off line

This is huge. We still need to grab 2 Olinemen and a good WR from the portal though IMO. With a solid Oline next year is a 9-3 season, with a good Oline and some help at WR for Squirrel we could see 10-2 and a shot at the 12 team playoffs next season in 2024.

2025 is a playoff season IMO regardless. Nico will have a full season under his belt...the now young WRs of Webb, Leacock etc will all be juniors and seniors. We should be really good in 2025.

 

[DeadByDaylightFan]

your face when he's just sitting out the rest of the season for the draft lol

 

[ENGRVOL]

If true that he is returning hopefully means that the NIL collective is devoting a lot of resources to the o-line in the offseason

 

[Majors]

Big win before the off-season as long as he doesn’t opt out for the draft or portal.

2025 is the year I’ve pointed too as we could seriously challenge for the SEC and playoff, unfortunately as we know Georgia will be right there too and Bama along with Texas and OU now in the SEC

I’m optimistic but just to play devils advocate, could possibly mean he plans on hitting the portal and wanting to go through senior day at a different school he has in mind?

 

[General Jack]

Oh hell yeah

 

[cherokeeeVOL]

Per twitter, would be huge

He’s not hitting the portal.

 

[Deebowbear]

This and a five star recruit on that off line

That’s what I’m talking about gbo

There's no reason for him to hit the portal. He's the best offensive lineman Tennessee has and he is a starter.

His opting for the 2024 NFL Draft would make more sense than that .... but if that is the case, he could still go through the Senior Day festivities without playing in the game. The most likely scenario is that he is planning on returning to Tennessee in 2024.

 

[Hunerwadel]

This could be BOOM worthy. I assume he will wait and weigh his draft prospects. Good luck Coop.

Anyone heard rather if Bru was taking part in senior day or not?
