Transfer portal discussion

[UT_Tix79]

I think the transfer portal is about to blow up. There may be 5000 kids in it by January

Hyatt’s grade and potential paycheck will determine if he leaves.

All that matters to Tennessee - will be what he chooses to do.

i.e. -- The report on whether he is ready or not.

I could see both Jimmy’s transferring

Heupel himself said that Holliday has played well on specials teams to earn a bigger role and game experience heading into 23. I think he will contribute.

I'm surprised that Calloway isn't already gone. He can't seem to get out of the dog house though he has a ton of talent. Doubt Holiday goes anywhere. He definitely has a chance to fill Hyatt's place if he leaves.

With some development, I think they will get pretty creative with Squirrel.

 

[BigALWiLson]

I believe we need an every down TE more than we need wr's. We also need lbs, safeties and CB. I just have more belief we will use the spots on those positions instead of WR

Jimmy Holiday isn't going anywhere. He loves it here. Walker Merrill would be more likely to transfer than Holiday. Not saying he will, just a more likely candidate.

I agree. TE would have to be the #1 portal priority. I think they'll be very selective at those other positions. Beasley and Mitchell are coming back at LB.

The report on whether team X is willing to draft him by Y slot is the one that matters.

 

[T2P_Priceless]

Holiday transferring would surprise me. He's the starting KR and would be the 4th WR next year. He could play the role Keyton has played this year.

Maybe but he never gets to return and looks frustrated every time they have him fair catch

 

[Volfansince1980]

I don't see much room opening up. If we sign 25 we're over the 85 limit by about 4 or 5. And if some others use their Covid year, it's more than that.

We will also lose some players in the portal. Not worried about the numbers.

It’s going to be beneficial to many parties.

Walter Nolan just entered the portal. Need to bring him home to Tennessee

I’ve seen reports that this isn’t true. It was reported by a parody account. Is there new information?

No offense to those 2, but I hope we can find better in the portal.

We won't miss a beat without Hyatt because Squirrel will be better.

He'll get all the wide open balls Hyatt gets now just because of the scheme and being fast and he's more dynamic with the ball in his hands.

Lol I hope so.... Squirrel is good but no WR in Tennessee history has done what Jalin has done this season. No one expected it. I get being excited for the Squirrel and he will fill the role nicely but 15 td catches regardless is a feat

You forgot Miles Campbell at TE

I think the tackles could be Mincey and Crawford…one moves to RT

You missed Campbell at TE.
You have Ramil ahead of Grant and he's not even committed to us yet, but not have Khalifa Keith at RB???

You have Gaston Moore in front of Nico haha?
Wtf man??

I believe that VQ is hinting that Campbell won’t be here next year.

I doubt anyone is entering the portal until the season is over. I don’t even think you can leave mid season.

1. Forgot Khalifa was a person when making this.

2. You ever heard of redshirt? No? Yes? Maybe? I hope so.

I'll agree with you on Mitchell but Beasley has had a great year.
