Maybe to really fatten that NIL deal they can let him call five plays every game, play QB for two plays on away games and coach every other Tuesday....

The NEW college football, ain't it great...

One of the best kick returners ever here never panned out anywhere else on the field Evan Berry. You are right it's a different gift. Not trying to downplay Boos talent but East Tennessee high school football is not elite IMO. Boo may be elite, but he was going against teams that are not on same level as some of the Georgia HS around Atlanta metro and Texas HS. Just don't know how it translates, I guess we will either see or he will take his talent to Colorado and let Deion mode him.

And let’s not forget his jumping around HS in Chattanooga. Chattanooga Christian School, Brainerd to finish at Bradley Central.

The rapid evolution of transfer rules and NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) rights has certainly created challenges for college football, leading some to argue for guardrails that balance player freedom and team stability. Here are three potential laws or rules that could address concerns while aiming to preserve the integrity of the sport:

1. Restrict Immediate Eligibility for Transfers After Receiving NIL Deals
• Rule: Players who have signed substantial NIL deals ($X threshold) must sit out one season if they transfer, barring exceptional circumstances (e.g., coaching changes or program violations).
• Goal: Prevent players from becoming “mercenaries” who jump to the highest bidder while still allowing flexibility for legitimate personal or athletic reasons.


2. Create NIL Revenue-Sharing Tiers Within Programs
• Rule: Cap individual NIL deals within team programs and redistribute a portion of NIL revenues to a team pool, benefiting all players on the roster
• Goal: Foster team cohesion by preventing massive disparities in earnings and discouraging players from transferring purely for financial gain.


3. Institute a Transfer Window with Limited NIL Activity
• Rule: Restrict transfer movement to a specific window (e.g., after the season and before spring practices) and prohibit new NIL deals being offered during that period.
• Goal: Reduce the influence of immediate financial incentives on transfer decisions, ensuring players prioritize athletic and academic factors.


Even AI can’t fix college football

I do not want to lose him. Even Fulmer let Mark Jones plays limited offensive packages when he was here. Defense and about 10-15 reps on offense to go with his special teams. Mostly run routes but also a snap or tow as wildcat qb or and end around. That's not even including the obvious. He is a physical dude he can get out and block a couple dbs on toss sweeps his way. I don't think that's too unrealistic. Mark Jones wasn't as physical as Boo. I don't want to say he wasn't as athletic ally gifted as so much time has passed its easy to misremembering although I do think he might have been a tad faster but Boo a little more shifty.

Mark Jones eventually moved full time to receiver

None of us know the internal workings of the Vol NIL situation, but it appears that
we do not want to pay the transfers what they can get from the "Big Boys", Bama, OSU, Georgia.

I don't think we will ever hit the mega million transfer unless we start paying more in line with these teams.
Don't count on the portal for our salvation.

Champ Bailey did this in the SEC in the late 90's, led his team in receiving and was an all SEC player on defense. There are others before Hunter too.
It can be done. Let him prove it. What's to lose?

What's to lose is him stunting his development on one side of the ball because there aren't a bunch of Champ Baileys out there. Then the team suffers because now we have a guy who isn't as good as he should be at one position because he wanted to be decent at 2 positions. Whether it's offense or defense, he needs to get great at one before we let him do both.

Carter would be a solid Carl Pickens clone and he has Willie Gault type speed.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Boo doesn't have "Gault speed". Absolutely no disrespect to Boo because only a small subset of human beings have Willie Gault speed (10.1 100m). Gault is in the top ten fastest NFL players all time..
