I'm guessing you mean those to be separate, because Tookie would be an incoming freshman I believe.

I think if its possible. We need to get a freshman PG(Tookie Brown) a grad transfer PG(Dylan Ennis, or Anthony Collins) a freshman PF(Ebuka Ezundu) and a grad transfer/juco PF(Tollefson, Kasongo, etc.) Thats what im saying is we should go in that direction with 4 spots.

PG-Tookie Brown(frosh), Ennis or Collins(both seniors)

Then

PF/C-Ebuka Izundu(frosh), Tollefson Kasongo etc.(juniors & seniors)

I think that somewhat balances out the roster, and gives us definite immediate help. Thats the route we should go IMO.
 
Gotcha.

What would the scholarship situation be if the Vols manged to take 4 more guys though? Obviously you'd have 4 guys by my count graduating next year. Do the Vols try to sign another big class? Or be very selective and hope to get a few highly ranked guys. Barnes has the potential and location to recruit very well.

4 open as of now for next season, 2 grad transfers makes it 6, probably look to sign 4-5 and possibly take 1-2 grad transfers again, then things should be balanced.

This is the route I preder too, one HS and one grad transfer PG and Post player each. Have to make sure we aren't reaching on a HS player though, Izundu is perfect, but don't reach for a HS PG and tie up a scholarship for 4 years.

I thought the transfer from NC State was Kyle Washington? And Kyle Alexander is the Canadian?

Washington has a ton of potential on the offensive end and one of the best looking jump shots i've seen from a big man. But he can't play a lick of defense.

I thought I heard CRB saying he thought that the grad transfer rules would no longer be in effect after this year. Did I remember that wrong, or was he wrong?

Tookie is a good PG prospect. He wouldnt be a reach would he?

He did say that, but that decision hasn't been made, so if it's still available next season and he's gotta fill 6-7 spots gotta think he'd go that route.
 
I think we have a few basketball visits during the orange and white game this coming weekend. If Anthony Collins makes it through this weekend then in my opinion i believe he will visit tennessee during the O&W game and I think he will be a vol.

Be interesting to see, because I think that's when they're trying to get Ennis to visit also
