Henry T officially gone

I see we're going through the usual round of "don't want; wasn't any good anyway." Even though he'll probably be playing in the NFL in a few years. Feel like people are greatly exaggerating his defiencies and greatly underestimating the deficiencies of players surrounding him.

That said, I don't wish him luck. If he went to Michigan, Florida State, or USC, I'd say "I'd wish him the best of luck." Not at Bama. Screw that!

Collectively this hurts because of other LBs who aren’t at UT any more. But singularly I don’t this this hurts that much...yes we’d like to have him. Let’s be honest, other than maybe Gray, I’m not sure how many of the other transfers actually played at least up to their ratings...though not all on the kids. Our last 3 coaches loved to waste talent.

It's so dumb

Him going there practically makes no difference.

There's no way the coaching he would get there would be so much better that it just transforms the player he is all together.

Hes essentially just getting a bump just because it's bammer.

He's drafted either way and the difference is likely very minimal.

If he plays at Alabama like he did here his 2nd year I doubt he gets drafted early or at all. Maybe a 6 round pick based on potential.

I think most saw his potential where he did have a good frosh year and so-so soph year. He may have been our best or one of best players, but that’s really not saying much. He’s no scrub but he’s not all SEC talent from what I can tell. I think he’ll make 2-deep for Bama but that’s about it.

Why are people so upset with a young man who is getting away from a toxic environment?
It’s unfortunate what Pruitt did to this program, but this is our reality.
I wish him well.

Getting away from being a big part of the controversy that will cause the NCAA to nail the Tennessee football program.

That is like the biggest slap in the face anyone can do to the university of Tennessee. Wish him no harm at all but hope he never plays another down of football. I never pull for bama no matter who they're playing. To hell with him now. He can turn his vol card in. He never was a volunteer to switch to bama

Amen...It seems to me that we have had a lot of happy campers with transfers that have come our way. I wish Henry T had not done this but I don’t think hating him does us any good.

It's a good thing that the players who were paid by Cornbread and his staff have left.

There is a wide gulf between being the best player at TN and Alabama.

He won't be near that at bama. He should have stayed where he could shine IMO.

He's not going to be riding the bench there. He's going to be playing alot, if not starting. His biggest problem last year was trying to do too much. Good players on bad teams often have that problem. They don't trust their teammates. He won't have that issue at Bama.

I'll bet anything he is not ever going to start at Bama. Talent wise at 5 star Bama makes him second string at best.

Friendly wager, if he starts before he leaves I can pick your profile pick for a month. If he doesn't, you can pick mine?
