He wasn't the chosen one

lol. There were no caps or limits when he played. There was nothing stopping Tennessee from offering him whatever they wanted to

There were a bunch of questions early on. Pretty sure our collective wasn’t quite running yet. But he must likely got a promise to be drafted. He made the correct decision to get $5 million guaranteed.

He literally played in the NIL era for a full year.

And he got 7+ million, 5 million of it was guaranteed. He got the biggest deal for a 2nd rounder ever iirc.
