Halfway joking. It's a temporary retirement while he goes on a Mormon mission.

Reported - we didn’t deserve that!

 

[TrippieRedd]

I mean, that’s really the only thing that makes sense. I’m hoping that’s not the case

First person that came to mind when I saw that picture

fell for the information hook,line and sinker.

I mean Igor & Dubar are gone, Brown probably a RS candidate. They’ll take a big if they can get him. 5 on roster leaves 8-10 open for guards.

Or it’s something stupid like they are worried in the current climate about Felix’s immigration status

Oooooof that would be crazy

Actually this got me thinking.

I found it rather curious that Felix wasn’t included in the ONIT Basketball card set this year with an autographed card.

He also has no merch in the Vol Club store. Even though stuff like BLOKPARA kinda writes itself.

This leads me to believe he is on the student visa type like Edey was where he isn’t legally allowed to earn money.

If that’s the case, there is a chance either he has violated and there is fear. OR he may be considering going pro and signing in Europe.

Just a guess though

Man,this thread is a ray of sunshine right now.

That’s higher than the NBA rookie minimum

 

[TrippieRedd]

which is just dumb

 

[JMSqb11]

Not really. The NBA caps rookie pay for obvious reasons.

Getting a guy to come back instead of testing the waters will always cost more than what they could max out on a rookie payscale, but it winds up being mutually beneficials to the school and the player.

Perfect example is none other than Kennedy Chandler... Tennessee should have done whatever they could to get him to come back one more year. He makes a lot and gets to develop another year under Barnes and Barnes gets another season of the dynamic duo of Kennedy and ZZ. Even more so when ZZ got hurt and we had no true PG.


A player's NIL value is worth what someone is willing to pay. I love this environment

 

[ABtheVolsfan92]

Do we want Coffie

Chandler made his decision before NIL was allowed

 

[JMSqb11]

Wrong. Nil was allowed summary of 2021. We played Michigan in 2022 tourney, which was Chandler’s last game. Almost a full year after NIL was in place. He even signed with a card company for like 40k in 2021

 

[Jimmy Football]

Personally, I prefer Cofie over Foulgerais.

Isn’t Foulgerais just a brand of Cofie?

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Kentucky fans on Twitter have reached the point of coping that they are convinced Braden Smith of Purdue is going to hop in the portal and transfer to UK. Lol.

 

[oldaaucoach]

Well darn.

Bring me Freeman and Alavaro, I’m happy.

definitely Alvaro Folgueiras! just looked at his highlights for the first time. I love his game.
