'22 AZ WR Kyler Kasper (Oregon commit)

[peaygolf]

You really wanna play with a guy in pink shorts?

If ya can back it up……you can wear whatever you want!

 

[volbeast33]

It’s really not a big deal….. he is a wide receiver…. We will get good wrs….. we need to load that nil money on both LOS and impact defensive players.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

1.5 million for a wr for a receiver over 4 years is dumb, it'd tell them to kick rocks as well

Agreed.

I'm a much better engineer than golfer, so I'll be staying a little more basic on my golf attire.

Unless Jalen has a breakout year, I would bet we don’t even get the younger Hyatt.

 

[barrylee]

Gotta believe the reclassifying was the big obstacle, didn’t see that coming..

I’m with most on here, not going to lose sleep over a wr in April, we going to score points..

You're kidding? Do you even racroot bro?

I’m no troll. I’ve been a die hard vol fan my entire life. Just because we have different views doesn’t mean I’m a troll. Anyone that thinks I am can stick it where the sun don’t shine. Morons.

He wanted 1.5 million and spyre wasn't willing to do that with the other wr's that we will be able to get. His dad is also an interesting character to say the least and would probably end up being a huge headache.

If true, wise move by the staff. There’s always more under the surface.

 

[InVOLuntary]

There's going to be players that Tennessee doesn't think are worth what the player thinks they're worth. Teams will value certain players more than other teams. Same with free agency in the NFL. We obviously didn't value him as much as Oregon did.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

So one player picks another team, and you take that and extrapolate that the "Nico" effect isn't there.

Yeah...you overreact.

You’re Misquoting. I stated it may not be as significant as many on VN was stating.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

But it may be. Highly doubt Kasper and Tate have any interest in TN if not for Nico. So yes he is having a massive effect.

Only effect that counts is when they sign on the dotted line.

There is no WR that is ever gonna come close to the value of a QB in college football.

Wrong. Nobody on here thought that just because we got Nico that we were going to get every big time WR. You just like to complain. It seems like you are one of the very few who cannot see the effect Nico is having on the program.

 

[KnoxToTheBoro93]

I get that all these guys like to be around Nico Iamaleava but I am beginning to doubt he has any real pull with any of them. Kasper to Oregon and I would bet Tate picks OSU. That’s probably why we are scrambling offering every wide receiver with a pulse right now. Don’t get me wrong, I love having Nico but it doesn’t seem to be helping in recruiting much.

He just committed relax… we will see how the class ends before you say “it doesn’t help” lol

I disagree. Interest is nothing at the end of the day of the recruits interested do not commit. I hope this was a one time occurrence and some of the higher rated recruits do commit but today was a big fat zero (Kasper) after the anticipation that developed within the last week with all the recruits being here together last weekend. I realize Kasper may change his mind his later but the details about the reclassification and NIL issues(if true) thru a wrench into the equation that most fans were not aware until today.

How many would we sign if zero were interested?

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

How many would we sign if zero were interested?

That’s an irrelevant question IMO. We will always have recruits interested. It’s a question of the quality of the recruit if we want to catch Alabama, Georgia and others. I’m hopeful with Heupel’s offense. We’ll see.

 

[TNHopeful505]

There is no WR that is ever gonna come close to the value of a QB in college football.

Only 3 Wide Receivers have ever won the Heisman, compared to about 40 QBs. And no WR has ever won the NFL MVP. QBs are going to be valued insanely more than WRs. OLs are going to be valued to protect the investment of said QB. RBs/WRs/TEs are important. But they will never have the same value to a program as a QB will.

 

[VOLSONLY]

Is the answer zero??

 

[Glitch]

Lots of good WRs in the 23 class. Sucks to miss out on Kasper but we will get some good ones. Lots of WR will want to play in this offense and then throw in Nico as the cherry on top. Good luck to Kasper.
