Vanderbilt's Jaylen Carey commits to Tennessee

[Just a VolinTears]

Sophomore. Could be a good get if he can provide inside scoring punch! GBO

 

[Flogballs]

According to Ken Pom the best offensive rebounder in SEC play this year. So he’s got that going for him.

 

[wmcovol]

He was a handful for the Vols. Great addition.

 

[AngryButchJones]

Dude played better and put up better numbers in SEC play than he did in the non-conference, so that alone intrigues me. Throw in the fact that he killed us both times we played Vandy, and he's a much more physical post presence than anyone we had this year, and I like this addition to the front court.

He has a good motor and great rebounding skills.

Do you think he'd play the four or the five. Wouldn't think he's tall enough for the 5 but then again look at Houston

I really hope he comes off the bench and takes over for whoever at both spots.

Be a good 4 with solid offensive game down low... Biggest strength is rebounding

I don't know ig that can be determined later. I do agree with you tho he's going to bring physicality to the whole team

I am pretty sure he will be at the 4. Should be a huge improvement over Igor either as a starter or coming off the bench.

There's not many players who wouldn't be an improvement over Igor

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Tobe 2.0?

I just think it depends on who else we finish with.

If we get Freeman, he can play the 4, not ideal, but let them battle it out and see.

If he starts, he starts and I have no complaints. He’s ranked #34 for a reason.

Tobe 2.0?

With more Offensive Game

 

[VOLLeeann]

Sophomore.

Sounds good. Only means he can be with us one year not two or three. Sad state of the game it is

 

[Volizona]

What does he bring that Okpara, Estrella and Phillips don’t already bring? Curious

 

[bleedingTNorange]

What does he bring that Okpara, Estrella and Phillips don’t already bring? Curious

Bulk, muscle, actual offensive scoring post moves

Better offensive game than Okpara and Phillips. More physicality than Estrella. He is Tobe Awaka with some post moves

Welcome to the future of NCAA and it's only gonna get worse

Ok. You think he can improve his ppg from 8 to 10-12 ppg playing on a better team than Vandy? 8 Ppg isn’t too far removed from what our current guys put up from time to time.

No idea but he is Tobe Awaka with some post moves

 

[EricberryFAN]

Big men depth is the key! We need some shooters and shot creators to go with our MD transfer. We will have a shot to be really good next year.

 

[tabrams]

He has a good motor and great rebounding skills.

So we hv 9 players now for next year? It sounds like we will try to grab 3-4 more transfers and 1-2 more HS players..

 

[AlcoVOLic]

Good get! Plus he’s theoretically going to be better than last year. Both portal gets have been good so far.
