Can we BOOM?

He will always be remembered for what he did off the field more than what he did on it. His own actions. Sad, because he had many good games.

Doesn’t bother me. Time to develop someone for next season. I’m done w Banks’ drama.

Wonder if he speaks pterodactyl?

Respectfully disagree

Sounds like he didn’t have much choice since he supposedly was academically ineligible. It will be interesting to see how he does at the combine, if he’s invited, and whether he can get drafted.

No one outside of vol fans remember anything he did as far as on field.

But when you do stupid things that end up on TMZ it's not surprising that's what your remembered for

 

[BearCat204]

Best of luck to him

If this is true will he be able to play the east west shrine game?

No idea about that game tbh. Im only repeating what AP has been saying on VQ for a few weeks now.

 

[LivinginthePast]

So will our defense have an epic melt down when he don’t play in the orange bowl like at South Carolina ?

 

[Dudleys87]

Someone will have to step up and be the field general of the defense.

Damn.

 

[90 Vol]

I don’t think so. Different situation.

Banks is not making up a 25 point deficit.

 

[EastTNVol6240]

Good. The university should have moved him a few years ago due to his unfortunate actions that don’t align with the culture if this university and fans.

 

[LittleVol]

You can by preventing it to begin with....

 

[CAVPUT]

Same players though.

Let me rephrase. Banks is not going to make a big enough difference to make them score 25 less points. He is a solid LB. That's it.

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

Congrats to Banks hope he has a great career and reps the Vols well. Haters gonna hate.

Good luck to the kid for sure.

But also good riddance

My question is how many players are glad he's finally gone?

If Banks was a CB or Safety, sure. Or if he can call better plays than the other Banks.

 

[OldVol]

I don’t think he’s eligible for the bowl and wouldn’t be eligible for next season.

He is rated in the mid 400s by most draft mocks and there’s only 259 picks. He may get an UDFA deal but I can’t think he gets much of one. If he had remained at RB I believe he would have had a better career but he scared Pruitt’s staff with ball security. I would venture to say he’s played his last down in a game that counts.

I do wish him the best.
