Not going to lie, when I first read through your header I read it as Players [who had a] Pos Reason for Leaving [the] Vols

 

[Roustabout]

What? No JG on your list.
Obviously all the guys who went to OU are top level talent and starters. That whole thing stinks. Who knows, Jackson Lowe may want to come back. Thompson is a huge loss. The rest were chronically injured or bit players that won’t be missed.

The bigger question is who can we get to transfer in. Need LB help and maybe Oline.

Linebacker Kivon Bennett has been dismissed from the Tennessee football program following his Tuesday arrest by UT police after a traffic stop.

He is facing gun and drug charges, two of which are felony charges.

“Kivon Bennett has been dismissed from our football program following a traffic stop earlier today," coach Jeremy Pruitt said in a statement. "There is a standard our student-athletes are expected to uphold at Tennessee, and today’s incident fell well short of that standard.”

Caught with drugs and a gun towards end of the season

Joe Doyle

Well, the actual portal is not publicly viewable, so we can't confirm or refute this, but the 247 sports recreation of the portal does not currently show Joe Doyle as a participant.

Not saying it can't be wrong and you can't be right. Where did you see Doyle listed?

Ah, thanks. Now that you say that, it does ring a bell. I'd forgotten all about it with everything else that has happened since. Thanks again.

 

[VFL-82-JP]

Transferred, in portal, dismissed or to the NFL

Brent Cimaglia

Henry To'o To'o

Quavaris Crouch

Those are the three I'm really hoping CJH and whoever he has as assistants are working on retaining. Along with shoring up our committed recruits and filling any remaining slots we have in the 2021 class with positions of greatest need.

Maybe not listed because he is walk-on? IDK. Here's a link though:

Losing our all SEC kicker is a much bigger loss than some of the other transfers[/

 

[Volintheswamp]

Wow.. almost a full class. it’s like a self imposed death sentence. With that many leaving or gone, we probably won’t even feel a scholarship reduction.

 

[Wireless1]

Since everyone could have come back, do you include Trey Smith and Brandon Kennedy?
On the positive side how many "Seniors" are coming back for their extra year?

 

[Cartervol]

Crouch should be a RB anyway. Henry T will be missed, although i might could get loose behind him for a pass or two and i'm in my 40"s...

We will not miss Cimaglia

Actually glad each are gone if they don't want to be here for whatever their reason.
