Nate Ament is a Vol!

Basilio just said on his show that Tennessee is paying Ament $4.2 million.
I wonder if that $4.2M is carefully defined for his time at Tennessee?

In other words, if he works hard and gets to the NBA after one year, he was worth it to Tennessee.

AND if he gets injured (or underperforms) and needs a second year at Tennessee to merit top NBA draft money... then that single amount over two years instead of over one year would still reflect his value to Tennessee.

I highly doubt it.

The full family story is pretty amazing


Thank you for sharing. Great story....this is the type of top talent I want. If Barnes can re-load like this yearly with a blend of top portal and unselfish HS recruits then I hope he coaches to 80. DK and Chaz have really boosted the already great perception of Barnes coaching by giving an updated and expanded "Durant pitch".
 
He will have to adjust to the physical play in the SEC. He has a thin frame, that’s my biggest concern. He has tremendous potential as evident by his ranking. I believe it will take some time to acclimate to SEC play. Teams will have to use an athletic 4 with some length to guard him. Hope he turns out to be a big time player. Go Vols! In Barnes we trust!

I’m not convinced Carey starts - strong competition for that starting spot. JMO
Carey 100% starts and ends up a top 5 draft pick. This will likely be the best basketball player we ever produce and put into the NBA. With a strong year he could be the #1 pick easily. The man is here to work and get some of that NBA money.
