Gaston Moore to the portal

[zeppelin128]

UCF with Frost seems a good possibility. I also thought USF with Golesh would make sense.

I mixed up the schools, but either works. Lol

stay in the UT system--come on down to the Chattanooga Mocs!

 

[BowlBrother85]

I know we have GMAC, do we take someone in the portal?

If Merklinger stays then we don't need anyone else. Good luck to Gaston Moore.

 

[Tnphil]

Best off luck to him. I see him as a coach in his future.

 

[AllVols]

Hate to see him go, but I fully understand. Best of luck to the young man.

So long Gas pipe & thanks for being a Vol

USF maybe?

I think USF is riding with Archie. He’s been there a couple years and I think he’s their guy going forward.

Tennessee backup quarterback Gaston Moore entering NCAA Transfer Portal

Tennessee backup quarterback Gaston Moore is entering the NCAA Transfer Portal after spending the last four seasons with the Vols.

I am surprised he is not a graduate transfer by now. Either way, hope he uses his eligibility to do something nice for himself and perhaps go get some NIL and playing time somewhere in his last year.

This.. I like the guy, but how old is he? How much eligibility does he have left?

Whatever happens, nothing but good wishes for his future, whatever it holds.

I normally stop caring about guys after they bounce for another school but this one’s different. CJH brought him here to help the QB room learn the system and be an extension of the coaching staff, he knew the assignment, never complained, and gave his all for Tennessee! I really hope he sees the field next year, wherever that may be, and I’ll be cheering for him. Who knows, he may be back as a GA in 2 years.

Austin Peay needs a QB...

That was lame and not cool on any level. Gaston is a VFL.

I’m an APSU alum, I’m not joking.

Yeah I don't see why that triggered someone, it's not like he will go to Oregon, I hope for UTC. He wants to start...

What is so lame about that? He could do very well at Austin Peay. He isn’t starting in a Power Conference

Those would be some nice destinations, but they might have something above him there already.

 

[orangemadam]

Can't fault him, surprised he didn't leave last yr..

Hope he has a tremendous year at his next locale..

 

[VOLLeeann]

Merklinger sez "OKAY !!!"

 

[WoodsmanVol]

USF maybe?

For sure.

 

[Volfan1000]

Great move for him. I hope he lands somewhere that he is the starter and absolutely balls out.

Good luck to Moore and thanks for his contributions to the football program.

my bad....

 

[WoodsmanVol]

The Gas Man will go to a system and coach he knows, and who knows him. USF, it is.

 

[loservol]

Hopefully Merk is ready to step up, because I won't be shocked to see him having to takeover for Nico in the middle of next season.

 

[DiderotsGhost]

But why? Thought he was one of those guys that was on a coaching track and kinda knew he was going to be a backup?

Or maybe going to USF to play for Golesh in final year?

 

[MississippiVOLS]

If Merklinger stays then we don't need anyone else. Good luck to Gaston Moore.

With GMAC coming in this year and Fazion next, I wouldn’t be surprised if Merk transfers at the end of next season.

It is interesting that when Milton was QB1, his apparent QB2 was Nico, a true freshman, though Gaston Moore was here and already experienced.

When Nico was QB1, his apparent QB2 was Gaston Moore, not Merk, the true freshman.

That seems to say Nico progressed faster than Merk has in the system.
