ICYMI, Ty Chandler...

[WiseOlVol]

is #2 on Vikings depth chart at RB.

Ran 4.38 at 2022 combine. Was out most of 22 with thumb.

UNC gets credit for him. But he's a Vol.

Last I checked he willingly transferred...so....I'm not sure how to feel about him.

But since we are more than fine at RB and didn't need him, I'm gonna choose to wish him the best.

Hard not to blame him. Pruitt left Tennessee a mess and Chandler, who already played an undervalued position to the NFL, had an opportunity to play at a high powered offense for Mack Brown. Sam Howell was projected to be heisman candidate and 1st round pick at the time.

Granted, he likely would have ended up doing well under Huepel, but there was so much uncertainty at the time and who knew what the consequences would be for Tennessee.

I wish him well. If he wants to rep Tennessee and consuders himself a Vol, I forgive him.

Never was that impressed with Chandler. Good straight line speed but couldn't make anyone miss.

What the hell icymi???

I get it in Chandler's case.
Senior year, borderline NFL talent.
He figured the 2021 season would be a cluster, and that would have been a good bet prior to playing the games.
He went to play offense for an offensive team expected to be prolific.

I can't argue against his thinking, at the time.
He probably was looking at how rough it was for John Kelly in 2017. That was the kind of season people expected us to have.

No he's not.

Anyone who transferred out under Pruitt gets a pass. Just like I deserve a pass for sticking up for that numb-nut.

Disagree. Most took money

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Would have loved to have seen Ty in Heupels offense.

When you quit the program, you leave your VFL status at the door.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure he was one of the players forced out who were being paid. 5* recruit iirc.
