I saw where Tyler Baron is officially back in the portal [now heading to Miami]

I recall a few weeks back Austin Price and Brent Hubbs doing a video on spring practice but shifted to transfer portal talk and noted of a couple of players regretting the decision to leave TN. They didn’t mention names but it sure seemed like Baron was one of the players they were referencing.

Who knows, I'm sure he has his reasons and maybe there are issues in the locker room of his causing or someone else.
I don't know that any of us know and that Josh knows much more than we do and will offer if it works for the team.

Way too deep. $$$. It really is that simple.

Third time's a charm? LOL. The guy has been all over the place.

This article makes it sound like he was using Louisville to try to sidestep a rule about transferring from one SEC school to another during the spring. Guess it didn't work out and he took a pile of cash from Miami.

Report suggests that Lane Kiffin could block former Vols DL Tyler Baron from transferring to LSU

I do wish him the best and hope he realizes his NFL dream. However, I think being a Knoxville native he will regret leaving once his playing days are over.

I do think he will regret leaving. He would have had a great year and really enhanced his draft prospects.

Miami is going to be good this season. They’ll have him opposite the 2nd best edge rusher in the country

I think he was looking for a chance to have a statistically great last season to improve his draft stock. He won’t be the guy getting doubled so he should have a good shot.

I think it was more money than anything, and we finally built enough depth in the secondary and at SDE, that we were willing to let him and Walker go.

With that said, I have no animosity towards either nor should our fanbase as a whole. I appreciate what they did when they were here and hope the best for each

This might be a good thing for the UT. Maybe players will realize that chasing everybody who drags out a papier-mâché image of George is just a fast and sure way to spatter and lose all the Lincolns, Roosevelts and Kennedys metal pieces they already have in their pockets. I'm not anti-capitalism, no sire. Just that too often along with greed, it holds hands with stupidity too.

Kids will always be dumb to a degree and chasing money makes most people even stupider.

Seems as if another situation he was in previously had this exact same scenario....

I think it is money-driven.
