We get hit right between the eyes again.

Where you seeing this?

I really wanted him too, but it could have been worse. He could have went to Auburn

Also its funny that his transfer was cited as part of the reason for Roy's retirement, and then this

Nothing official is out there that I’ve seen but reports have said it’s trending that way

Yea I agree that it looks that way but this makes it seem like there’s an actual report

Apologies for the miswording.

Well, if Kessler is off the board I guess it's back to the drawing board.

I need some positive recruiting news here soon. Doesn't even have to be a commitment, just some nuggets from VQ about where things are headed.

It seems like Auburn would have been the choice over us. His brother is a lawyer in Auburn, AL.

This is a FOX Sports Knoxville guy. Granted, they typically get their info from message boards, but is there a rumor out there I'm not privy to? This is the first I've heard it even hinted at.

I’ve seen it a few times.

I think it’s just speculation but I wouldn’t be shocked

I thought so as well, thats why I feel ok if Kessler goes back to UNC

I've seen rumors but idk why he would. Barnes has given him a lot of playing time and I don't think he's going to lose a ton this year. Would think Powell is more a threat to VB's minutes than Scovi's. Maybe if he wanted to run point somewhere exclusively? Idk

 

[golfballs]

Hes going to have competition but I think next season is a very good situation for him.

You mean like just a day or two ago them sharing that we were the front runner for Jonas Aidoo?

Haha...yep. Roy’s like, “Man, I was just playing with y’all. I’m coming back too.”

Liam Robbins to Vanderbilt

Vescovi would be dumb to transfer
