It's going to be a long-shot to land both, but I'll give credit where credit is due. Rick & Co. have been pushing HARD for both of these players already, and it's incredible the work that's already been done. I just hope we can land one of them. If the Deacon somehow lands both--there will be no words.

That would be a stacked roster if he could land both prospects.

Indeed it would be. However, there is a small chance Keon, Springer, and Josiah all leave after 2020 and you lose Pons and Fulkerson as well so you're looking at a very different roster makeup in 2021. I anticipate a rather large signing class next year. Maybe 5-6.

If Barnes and Friends land both Chandler and Banchero ... well ... I don't even know what I should wager. A lot. Because that would be beyond superoir. Super-perior? Yeah. Superperior.

Since Chandler is from Memphis, we have to hope Barne's Vols have an impressive win over Tiger High to increase our chances
However, ESPN's recruiting chart on Chandler shows neither UT or Tiger High with offers

From Rivals Wednesday leftovers yesterday in regards to Chandler being a "lock" for Memphis. We definitely have a better shot at Chandler than Banchero, IMO.

I am not sure where the idea came from that Kennedy Chandler was a done deal for Memphis. Yes, the Tigers have done a tremendous job of keeping the very best from the city at home since the hiring of Penny Hardaway, but Chandler seems to be from a different mold.

First, he has zero ties to Hardaway or his staff, as he plays for MoKan Elite on the travel circuit and attends Briarcrest Christian. Are the Tigers one that will be under heavy consideration once he is set to make his decision? Yes, but I am willing to take the field on this one.

North Carolina just offered last week, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the other bluebloods followed. Once programs realize how poor the point guard crop is in the 2021 class is - and how great of a playmaker Chandler is - more will jump in. He has already visited Ole Miss, Tennessee and Syracuse officially, and he will head to Florida State and Michigan in February, and maybe Carolina, too.

Keep an eye on the bluebloods, but if he does stay closer to home, Tennessee may be more difficult to beat than most believe.

Yep I agree. Chandler is not the thug mentality that many of the tiggers now and in the past have been. Higher up the food chain and not attached to penny at the hip.

Yeah, Chandler is not going to Memphis, imo. Not saying he is coming to UT, but if they do land him, I would put our chances for Paolo at 49%
