5-star Texas O-lineman to transfer

I personally think the chances are slim, but does anybody feel there might be some mutual interest here between this guy and the Vols? Chances might be greater if he were a tackle, but he could still provide some needed depth along the OL provided behavioral/motivational problems aren't involved.

It would be awesome if there is...apparently the big issue was playing time (redshirted as an incoming 5* prospect and then only played in 5 or 6 games last year), albeit some sort of knee injury.

IF the guy has rehabbed correctly, I would say the knee issue is not a factor.
So that brings up two questions for me:
1) If he transfers, does he count towards our '13 (year he started with NCAA) or '15 schollys?
2) Are transfers allowed "workout" days (ala pro days for teh NFL) for prospective suitors?

Lord knows Vols need him now!

Primary recruiter was Manny Diaz

It says he is a Guard. We are actually pretty solid at Guard. We just need one very talented LT.

Is he a Tackle? We don't need no stinking Guards! lol

Everything I say has a meaning and a purpose. It could come to you later on in an hour or a month, there is always a message.
