Geesh..Lot of work in portal. Hope it is a good one. Do we have a GM type that manages this portal and NIL money? Might want to look at that. Some schools seem to really be far ahead regarding advanced scouting and targeting portal transfers.

we have a GM type that does help with management of the portal, money and evaluations but I'm sure coaching staff also has a big say in those things..

105 players on roster is just stupid. You are not going to keep that many players satisfied.

We must change his title immediately so that he can do a better job!

If the number is 105, does that mean that there is no such thing as non-scholarship football players anymore?

I heard the 105 roster limit does away with ā€œwalk onsā€ which allowed for a lot of practice squad players??

you can still have walk-ons not on scholarship. You do not have to fill roster with scholarship players and I will be surprised if UT does. Long way to go (30 openings) for them to get there.

Correct. Everyone counts to the 105 and everyone receives the House Settlement Revenue sharing distribution. They don't all have to receive scholarships.

There aren't really 30 openings though. The special teams guys that usually don't receive scholarships (Turbyville, Brady, Dangerfield) will count to the 105. I would guess they would keep 5-7 guys on the roster to fill those spots (longsnapper, K, KOS, P).

Since QB is so expensive, I bet we will always have a guy like Mason Phillips, as well.

I agree. Some walkons will be kept to count against the 105. We still have two to deduct for sanctions as well

Do you know if the new kicker, Cooper Ranvier, will be a scholarship player? Also, do we still have Grady Dangerfield on the roster?

This needs to be updated, but I suspect it will offend many. A lot lost on the junior and seniors. How do you go from the youngest team in the league to even younger? Ask Josh Heupel.

I think kicker will be.

At this point, I don't know what walk-ons they will keep on the roster. I feel certain they keep Turbyville and Bennett but beyond that I'm not sure until they update the roster.

Heupel has lost control of his program.

We have what, 10?, people over 20 years old... And who can compete in the SEC, maybe 5 of those. (worst conference of the p5)

6 wins watch, versus teams that have losing records again. Lose bowl to an up-and-trending Northwestern then fans say "next year will have 7 seniors instead of 6!"

You still have Gavin Freeman on here. So we're actually at 81.

It is troubling there are not many juniors or seniors. You could count third year sophomores as juniors. This makes the numbers look a little better. Also how many upper classman did Tennessee lose to the portal?
