Is Dylan Railoa Now An Option For the Vols?

[Tman44]

With Dante Moore returning to Oregon, does Raiola want to be a back-up? Could he re-enter the portal? Inquiring minds want to know.

My guess is he's okay being the backup this season.

That ain't workin', that's the way you do it
Money for nothin' and your chicks for free...

Meh.

Can't we just steal Vandy's 5* QB and really break their hearts or something?

I really want nothing to do with Riolas Patrick Mahomes cosplay.

 

[farmdogvol]

Look for Miami to throw the cash at him. They still need a QB.

 

[Bleed Orange 1970]

Would be a great get for us!

He's getting paid enough to be their girlfriend instead of other people's wife I guess. We need a Phil Knight style sugar daddy up on Rocky Top.

With Kiffin signing Longstreet behind Leavitt and Oregon signing Raiola behind Moore, it seems we're entering a new era of bags of money letting teams stack talent.

They might not keep those guys next year, I guess, but both will be positioned to start if they want and have a year in the offense to learn and, of course, injuries can happen.

It's a nice strategy if you have few other holes to plug and/or Phil Knight wanting a Natty before he dies.

Maybe get a blister on your little finger

Should Tennessee take a swing at Dylan Railoa since Dante Moore is returning to Oregon?

 

[volfeeva]

Just throwing this out there: let's say there are still college players today that seek a NC ( as much as they seek $$$ ) . Is it harder for a team like the Vols to attract top talent when they seem unsettled on a QB to this point ?

I'm sure Oregon already warned him that Moore was returning and he obviously was fine with it. Oddly enough.

I think it's harder to attract guys like elite WRs to a program that doesn't consistently have a guy who can get the ball to them or harder to attract elite RBs if your O Line run blocking is weak.

Those crazy good WRs at Ohio State wouldn't be there if there wasn't a package of better than average O Linemen giving a competent QB a chance to get the ball out to them.

If I'm looking, it's the package: the offensive philosophy and the talent around me and my "fit" in that package. JMO

Wonder what changed Moore mind. I had saw mock drafts that had him as the #2 pick
Did that play game damage his stock that bad?

He may not have wanted to go to the Jets

What's he going to do next year when the Jets or the Browns are in the same position.

I don't know. That's a lot of money to give up being #2 overall as a QB

 

[Shirleyudontmeanthat]

No thanks. Kid a headache

Didn't he break his fibula. It's possible he may need the year to recover

Some players just want the money.

he has signed at Oergon and agreed to redshirt

he is getting millions (Nike money) to backup Moore

Yeah, just feels like a poor decision. And we have plenty of examples of QBs coming back for another year and tanking their draft stock. And this is a pretty terrible QB class, it’s hard to see him dropping at all.

Just a weird decision that he may wind up regretting pretty badly.
