Vols Kicker to Transfer

My argument is we don't know, so let's lay off the kid, and since he is a kicker I highly doubt he is leaving because of the physicality of practice as was implied. If CJP is putting the kickers through a Junction Boys type camp he is an idiot (I don't think he is).

Not sure about the physicality. Sometimes the kicker is the last tackler.

True, typically though kickers are not put through the rigors of other players. 99% of their job is kicking and staying healthy, so I'm not prepared to brand him a coward just yet. That's all I am saying in regard to the physicality thing.

Shoot, no one should call him a coward. He's got his reasons, I'm sure. Better now than mid season. Good luck to him.

According to 247Sports, grad transfer Ryan Tice (who came from Michigan) is leaving the program after joining UT over the summer. Don't have a subscription so I can't see if they specify why. Thought it was interesting to pass along, though.

If Coach Pruitt had wanted him to stay, I'd imagine he'd still be here, don't you think?

He wasn't here long enough to unpack his suitcase.

Kyle Oliver lasted longer.

Maybe he does not think this team will do a lot of kicking?

I thought if you were a grad transfer, you were guaranteed to start? Did he not “intend” enough?
