Transfer Portal - who do you miss?

[VAVol85]

Much has been said about the transfer portal chaos. But, I was trying to think of who we have lost that I really regretted.

I hated to see Chandler go to NC because he had been here so long; disappointed that Baron left because he is a Tennessee guy. Herring contributed last year when we needed him, so I regret that he decided to leave.

Don’t really miss any of the QBs that left. Mincey and Walker were mercenaries - I appreciate their contributions but they were not really team guys. The other DBs that left last fall had mostly been recruited over.

Hate it that Addison Nichols did not work out because I had high expectations (apparently expected to start at Arky).

If you could have blocked a transfer, who would it have been?

 

[Special Ed]

I never miss.

I never miss.

I did, but my aim is getting better.

That DT that went to OU last year could have helped.

Da’jon Terry, DT: Kansas -> Tennessee -> Oklahoma. Could definitely contribute, though our DLine is in pretty good shape. Terry was a very good transfer at a position of need when we got him from KS.

I think we have the best Dline we have had in years. IF HE DIDN'T WANT TO BE HERE, I WON'T MISS HIM.

I don't think we've lost anyone that I'm missing. None.

None of them...to quote Jose Jose (blast from the past...best recruit name ever)..."if you ain't a Vol you ain't nuthin"

Have plenty of time for those who wear the , the others not so much.

I understand some players desire to transfer for more playing time or just PT. Sometimes I see it as best for them then sometimes I don't. If you can't or won't compete for the job then by all means go. Change your mind want to stay, sure why not.

But if they're a rolling stone then they can stay rolling. They had their chance to hear 101,915 cheer them on.

NOBODY

 

[JohnWardForever]

I missed more than I hit.

 

[Smokymtnbullet]

None of them.If they don’t want to be here we don’t need them.It’s next man up.

 

[supersmo18]

I don't really "miss" any because we've done well replacing them thus far. I'll miss a player more when we can't fill the gap they leave.

 

[Shirleyudontmeanthat]

Right now I miss J Wright …

 

[Chitlin&theDude]

I would have said Baron, but just seeing where's he's back in the transfer portal tells me he doesn't have his head screwed on straight

No one that never wanted to stay.

True but he was early draft not portal.

And the sky today is blue … thanks Captain

 

[TNVOLFN]

Brandon Stewart... Would've won a couple of Natty's with him instead of the other fella who stayed.

 

[AllThingsTN]

Probably Eric Gray…he was so explosive and would’ve thrived in Huepel’s offense imo. Wouldnt have minded having Wanya Morris either. I’m sure I’m blanking on a few.

 

[BruisedOrange]

I miss sanity and order.

But I could post that in any thread on any forum regarding any topic in the whole wide world today.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

None of them

 

[UTK]

No one really. Didn’t mind Chandler leaving (I know he had a good final season at UNC) because here he felt like a very average back that couldn’t break a tackle to save his life. Eric Gray was a bigger loss but still we’ve had better backs since he’s left anyways imo

Just wondering why you were talking about a draft guy in a thread about the portal…Shirley
