Pretty interesting he's visiting since all I've read said we aren't taking a WR barring an unexpected transfer.

Kid is an ELITE track athlete though. Ran a 10.02 100m at the NCAA Outdoor Track Finals.

Until the visit is confirmed by someone from ON3 or 247 then take it with a grain of salt. Agencies will float the names of other schools just to drive up the price. It already happened with Colandrea this year.

EDIT: It was confirmed, but I am leaving this up because who isn't wrong every now and then.

On3 did confirm it

Depth. We don’t have a lot of numbers. We take a receiver every year

Bey replacement?

Bey replacement?

I almost said the same thing. You beat me to it.

 

[LargePairOfVols]

You don’t turn away 10 flat 100m speed

[Sandman Vol]

Elite speed is simply that. Worth pursuing. Just hope it doesn’t take priority over the glaring defensive needs.

 

[Carp]

Could be a force on special teams with that sort of speed.

 

[JCVol00]

Im just saying, that X spot is open from Brazzell leaving, maybe he can earn it

 

[UTwild82]

I want more defensive dudes for sure...we need them...but this cat and a Sam Leavitt that has an entire offseason to learn the offense and get healthy? That aint a bad thing.

I don’t know why we would complain. We have some young talent. Rad can play but dodnt have a catch in his only start in the bowl.

Take another look.

Ok 2 for 18. He’s talented and shown great hands. He was also injured much of the year with minimal PT so if he goes down again we don’t have experience behind him.

 

[Dreamsicle]

From Brazzel, Bey, or is Mathews considering the portal?

 

[tennesseefan31]

Talented young guy we can develop and provide depth - not all portal guys have to start, you've gotta backfill the young guys who leave too. We only have 7 receivers on the roster.

 

[orangemadam]

Only a take if you can get it cheaply. Low need at WR

 

[Go Fight Win]

Hyatt speed wonder if coach knows he needs a true burner straight line for everything else to click.

Outside and fast


Compliments outside physical guys and our quick slot guys

Yeah as good as our WRs were last year, we didn’t have a burner like that (Staley and Matthews both have really good speed but not Hyatt level speed like this guy).

 

[IUGradVol]

So we’ll get outbid and he’ll end up at USC or TCU. Woe is us…

 

[jvols1999]

Seems TBD if he’s actually visiting…
